American Music Club, Lonely Trailer at Trito's Uptown

Another show i remember little about.  Definitely went with Mike Lit, as he was a fan of AMC.



I thought this show was at Mabel's, but this flyer says otherwise.  Huh - my brain seems to be conflating this show with this one.

Sting at Dane County Coliseum

I would have sworn that this show happened much later, but i guess it did not.  Did i miss school to see it?  Certainly i missed an awful lot of school, but going to a mid-week show in Madison seems a lot more premeditated than i ever remember being.  Oh well, i know i went up to see Sting with Chris, and the internet tells me that this is when he played there (Sting, not Chris), so who am i to argue with the mighty internet?

Anayway, i don't remember the show at all.  I know i bought a t-shirt...

I do remember getting more than a little tipsy with Chris, eating Cool Ranch Doritos and playing Elevator Action in the lobby of his dorm.  Chris nearly pulled the game over on himself, but i managed to catch it and SAVE HIS LIFE.  Chris didn't eat Cool Ranch Doritos for years after that.  I don't believe his Elevator Action play-time was affected.
