  May 13th, 1991 I saw the triple bill headlined by The Kentucky Headhunters with Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and Carlene Carter opening at Northlands Coliseum in Edmonton. A damn good triple bill it was.

23 Years Ago Today...May 13th

It was twenty-three years ago today that I saw George Thorogood play at the Agricom here in Edmonton.





Also on this day twenty-two years ago today, I saw the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band with openers The Kentucky Headhunters play Northlands Coliseum in Edmonton. I was there for the Headhunters.



As well on this day fifteen years ago I went to the Dave Matthews Band concert at the Plaza Of Nations in Vancouver.



That same evening, after leaving the DMB concert about half way through, I went across the street and saw Bob Dylan play a bar in Vancouver called The Rage. One of the most amazing concerts I have ever been to.

Ticket Stub Of The Day Feb.19th (Kentucky Headhunters)

Today's ticket stub is from the triple bill of Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Kentucky Headhunters and Carlene Carter concert I saw at Northlands Coliseum in 1991. The main reason I went to this show was to see Kentucky Headhunters, but have to admit all three bands were actually quite good. I went to this show with Hurl and Geddy and Geddy's mom. Geddy was taking his mom to the show as a Mother Days gift. Which worked out well for me, as now I had someone who could sneak in my video camera. She was kind enough to do it for me too. We laughed when she said she felt like she was sneaking in drugs, but she did it nonetheless. Thanks Geddy's Mom!!! The only band I taped was the Kentucky Headhunters.

The day of the show the Kentucky Headhunters did an autograph session at HMV in West Edmonton Mall. Hurl and I went to meet the band, who turned out to be really nice guys.
