[kj] feast of blaze(original).

[Alexander Smith]

Of  Leigh's list (not to gloat or anything)...

-I saw Skinny Puppy on the VIVIsectVI tour and the Too Dark Park tour  
(still have the shirts from both).

- Never saw NoMeansNo, which I deeply regret
- I saw Faith No More open for VoiVod and Soundgarden at a tiny club  
in Brooklyn called L'amour (this was circa THE REAL THING/NOTHINGFACE/ 
LOUDER THAN LOVE, respectively).

- Never saw The Jesus Lizard, sadly.

I *DID* see Mr.Bungle twice circa their first major label album,  
which was amazing.

Apart from Killing Joke...
I saw Cop Shoot Cop nine or ten times throughout their career
I saw Jane's Addiction four or five times circa RITUAL...
I saw the first Buzzcocks reunion show at the Ritz with all original  
members (minus Howard, of course)
I saw Julian Cope on the PEGGY SUICDE tour and the 20 MOTHERS tour  
(just him, a guitar and a mic)
I saw Bad Brains on the QUICKNESS tour
I saw Devo on the New Traditionalists tour and the Oh No! IT's Devo  
tour.
I saw the Circle Jerks (circa WONDERFUL) at a tiny club.
I saw Motorhead on the 1916 tour
I've seen the White Stripes a handful of times in relatively  small  
venues.
I saw the Jesus & Mary Chain circa DARKLANDS
I saw fIREHOSE circa RAGIN' FULL ON.
I saw Black Flag circa SPLIT IT IN
I saw the Ramones, the Pixies, the Replacements,...

I don't know. It's too early to think.

Biggest regrets:
Never saw the Stranglers
Never saw the Sisters of Mercy circa FIRST AND LAST...
Never saw XTC (though their cease in touring made that tough for  
EVERYbody)
