Any Seattleites going on Oct. 1st? My lil brother and I will be flying up and going to the show. I'd love to say hi to any NWOers in attendance.

Hi BeatSchool, I'll be there for the Sat. show. Reserved seats in the balcony; a sign of getting old (and wanting to go out to dinner ahead of time). E-mail me through my profile for contact info.

Woz, Swamp Thing?

Sorry. Too damn busy. I planned on contacting you when I got to Seattle, but I had so many people trying to meet with me that I ran out of time.

I didn't make the show until four minutes before FF came on stage. My younger brother and two of my best friends spent so much time reminiscing that we lost track of time and had to jet down to the show.

I hadn't been in the Paramount since a Sinead O'Connor show back in 89 or 90. The seats were all gone from the main floor and the sound was pure shit. One of the things I love about FF is that they are so melodic and all I could hear on the floor was drum and lead guitar. Aside from that though, I was very impressed. I'm not a big fan of "Take Me out", but I thought it had amazing energy live. I really loved "The Outsiders" with the three drummer thing. The whole band is quite charismatic.

Sorry we missed each other.

'Sokay . . . my friend Kat and I had the S.O.s with us anyway. You can see my further impressions of the show on the Butt Crack thread in NNNW. [:D]
