Husker Du w/Peter Case3/30/87 First Avenue w/John & Bob Ticket Price: $8.50 This is the last time John and I would be seeing Husker Du in concert. However, it was the first (and only) time for my older brother, Bob. John and I were unimpressed.

concert memoirs pt. 18 – game theory, the woodentops, peter murphy & chameleons uk
Game Theory w/The Jayhawks 10/19/86 First Avenue w/John Ticket Price: Unknown Nothing. I’ve got nothing here. The Woodentops w/Trip Shakespeare & New Marines11/5/86 First Avenue w/John Ticket Price: $6.00 I don’t recall anything of the open acts, but I did like Trip Shakespeare a lot.

Ramones w/Funseekers7/27/86 First Avenue w/John Ticket Price: $8.00 This is one of my feather-in-my-cap shows. True, it wasn’t very early on, it wasn’t at CBGB’s, but it was before Dee Dee left the band. And well before they all died, most of them anyway. I hope that doesn’t seem to mean, because I do feelContinue reading “concert memoirs pt. 16 – ramones & pete shelley”
concert memoirs pt. 15 – souxsie & the banshees, let’s active, the church, the cramps & the screaming blue messiahs
Souxsie & the Banshees 5/25/86 Orpheum Theatre w/John Ticket Price: $13.75 Here was one of the rare shows not taken in at First Avenue. John and I had come to prefer shows at First Avenue or, to a lesser extent, the Cabooze. It was easier to get a good view of the act and notContinue reading “concert memoirs pt. 15 – souxsie & the banshees, let’s active, the church, the cramps & the screaming blue messiahs”
