 I wish there was a history of the concerts at 930 over the last few years. I'd love to see that.

Has anyone here not seen either of the two Radiohead shows there ('97 headlining & '98 Tibetian freedom concert weekend after the lighting cancellation) ..or the Red Hot Chili Peppers the same weekend, when everyone from all of the bands playing the Tibetian Freedom concert were there just hanging out (all the Pearl Jam guys, Sean Lennon, Thom Yorke, Dave Grohl, etc... not to mention Brad Pitt and Jennifer Anniston getting cozy on the balcony above the stage) those were my faves, but there are so many to consider.

 I've been to many great shows at the club but the one that stands out the most for me was this one. I still get chills up my spine when I think of it.

 but i can't remember half the shows i've been at. that coldplay definitely ranks up there though. i'll have to grab my old scrapbooks and look thru all the old concert stubs.

I second the rage against the machine oct 31,1999 show. It was an amazing show.

i wish i was able to go to shows there a year ago...i would have loved to see Nirvana who played 930 a long time ago(to me atleast)

The one that immediately springs to mind is the Bauhaus reunion show a few years back.

I just moved here so out of the, um, 3 shows I've seen (Dandy Warhols, Hot Hot Heat and Interpol). I'd have to say Interpol was the best.

 Funny Walkman, because that White Stripes and that Clinic show were disappointing for me, although I know I am in the minority on the White Stripes and Interpol was good at the Clinic show.
