Feh. I'll be elsewhere today.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

nothing says tumbling tumbleweeds quite like a '95 classic on the Friday after Thanksgiving!
Don't stand in the way of LOVE!

A couple of clinkers in here (Alanis, Toad) but a lot of this set sounds like what I was listening to in '95 (Wilco, Jayhawks, Portishead, Supergrass) and I'll confess to "Good" being a guilty pleasure at the time. Coulda been worse, imo.
Let's get right to it.

That's how many I've seen of them, too. So which are yours? Mine were three of the four I mentioned (Wilco, Jayhawks, Supergrass) and Chris Isaak (not intentional--he was on the bill at some big show I went to where Wilco was also playing). So in my case, only 3 of four would be termed "excellent." Wish I'd seen Portishead.

Wilco, Supergrass, Portishead and Annie Lennox (well, while she was in the Eurythmics - yeah, kinda cheated there!)

I've also seen four!  :o
Wilco, Better Than Ezra, Alanis Morissette, and Chris Isaak.  The latter three were free performances (In reverse order: Amoeba, GGP-Power to the People, SJ Music in the Park.)  Wilco was also free because I won tickets.  The usual venue (this was when I was still on the east coast) was under renovations, so Wilco performed in a middle school gymnasium!
