What's the most "losing my edge"-like accomplishment you can boast?

at Flipper's last show, with Live Skull and Die Kreuzen. It was good.

at the first US show by The Sugarcubes/Jesus & Mary Chain. They were not so good.

at a show where Dinosaur Jr. & MBV played so loud I couldn't hear that well for a while.

at a Ride show at Maxwell's, NJ, flirting with Miki from Lush the whole night.

at an amazing AR Kane show at said Maxwell's with only about 30 other people.

Ah, youth.

No, I'm not jealous.

Being in the same circle of friends as 1nf1n1t3 L1v35 and fairweather indie-dance types 50uth.

(Both encounters within a 4-month period in '91 at the same Toronto club.)

Rick Lee or Steve Calhoun?

God, I saw NIN on this tour, also, but at a little dive bar called DJ Freak's in Newark. Turd-O-Licious. All the Wax Trax/PIAS/TVT folk used to play at DJ Freak's. I saw The Young Gods/ Meat Beat Manifesto (dinosaur-suited dancers phase)/Severed Heads/MC 900 Ft. Jesus & DJ Zero there.

i'd be stoked to be in Pam's sitting room, whether it was the Clientele or fluff fluff fluff fluff and cuddlyness playing

1.Bumped into Phil Lynott in a restroom doorway at the 688 Club in Atlanta.
2.Took a swig from a can of beer that Iggy Pop handed me after a show, on the sidewalk outside 688.
3.Seen REM open for BowWowWow at the Agora Ballroom, Atlanta.
4.Been in a band that opened for Full Time Men & Plan 9 (two different shows, not together) at the 688 Club.
5.Let Johnny Thunders use my cap as a windscreen because the mic was shocking the flying hell out of him, once again, 688. It had a ton of his spit on it, and I never washed it again.
6. seen the Only Ones open for an Atlanta band called the Restraints, Atlanta Agora.
7. Gotten shitfaced with Nikki Sudden & Drivin' & Cryin' (his backup band for numerous Southeastern gigs while recording the Jewel Thief in Atlanta) before, during, & after their gig at the Point, Atlanta, and at the Chameleon Club, Atlanta. Nikki is partial to white russians, and a really cool cat.

("THE Fez"?)

I saw the Beastie Boys open for RUN-DMC at Madison Square Garden (circa License to Ill/Raising Hell)

Saw Jewel at the San Diego Music Awards in like 93 or 94

I guess that’s not a coffeehouse.

there are few bands who I was an early adopter of, closest I can get is having seen Dillinger Escape Plan on the Calculating Infinity tour and buying my actual shirt off of Dmitri, but by then they were already a big deal.

I did see Foo Fighters first world tour and met/got Dave Grohl's autograph in 1995, but he was already a well-known star then, and this was well after "i'll Stick Around", "Big Me", and "This is a Call" were all over radio.

if you're a fan of The Drag Race, I knew Ginger Minj before she did drag, and did a production of Grease with them in 2002 (I was Roger, they were Doody).

I saw the first ever Silverfish gig when they sounded like they had been together for like ages. Camden Falcon.

That reminds me I ended up at a party at (I think it was) Fuzz's place on new year's day a while back. Thank for the glass of port, Fuzz.

Also not so long ago I was at a new year's eve thing where there maybe 15 people including me, C0lin Newm4n and M4lka Sp1gel. I don't know them and didn't talk to them so this just sounds creepy. Although I suppose this only really works if it's people you don't know.

This also sounds creepy and I'd met her a few times pre-fame but the future cap'n Phasma wearing something very small and gold in a burlesque club can't help but make an impression.

i don't have any of these, but this happened today:
