Proof.

By in friends, love, Old crap

I’ve always been this cool. And here’s how you can tell: I went to see The Who in 1989 when I was 17. It was at the CNE when the Grandstand was still open, that’s where the Blue Jays played before the Skydome opened. It was an amazing place for concerts, it’s also where I saw the first Lollapalooza (yes, with NIN and Jane’s and Bodycount and…) and Neil Young. It’s sucks that it’s gone.

Gosh, $34.50 to see The Who? I wish I could remember this show better. I went with Patsy, who I am still friends with.

Man.

I guess this also proves I never throw anything out.

    Was the Neil Young concert with Blues Traveler, Soundgarden and Pearl Jam opening? That was the last concert I went to at the Grandstand. Wow I almost had forgotten about going to concerts there, of course it was over 15 years ago so no real surprise. Damn I think I must be old then.

    Yes, Nick, that was the show I was at. It was an amazing day, to say the least. I have the stub from that too-actually, the whole ticket. What an amazing show that was!
