Los Straitjackets “Rock & Roll Party” w/Big Sandy & Pontani Sisters 10/26/01 First Avenue w/Amy & Mark Ticket Price: Unknown We were late for this show. I don’t remember why, I’m guessing that we thought Los Straitjackets would be going on later.

concert memoirs pt. 28 – semisonic, bauhaus & the church
Semisonic 6/6/98 First Avenue Alone Ticket Price: Unknown I must admit feeling strangely smitten by this band. At least, at the time. It must have been the catchy tunes that were reminding me of Trip Shakespeare, the previous band of Dan Wilson and John Munson.

X w/Soul Asylum 10/15/84 First Avenue w/John Ticket Price: Unknown Another show at the famed First Avenue. We were still getting a hang of the place. We were looking forward to seeing Soul Asylum, a local band that had some good buzz.
