Show Notes
Matt & Charli: "I remember that this show only cost $5.00, and everyone proceeded to rip up the lawn, and throw clods of dirt at everyone. I kept getting pelted with dirt, and just had a miserable time. Lots of energy in this show, but the band was just not that good."
itsalltrue: "That was one of the last concerts I saw at Blossom. Lollapalooza '95 being the ultimate final one. Those were some really great times. I somehow simultaneously enjoyed and respected the bands whilst entertained myself as I berated and criticized the newly turned "alt" jocks, preps and cheerleaders of the crowd. I miss it."
KBTime: "The outdoor arena in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, is summer home to The Cleveland Orchestra, but has also hosted many other types of music over the years... including an infamous Green Day show on September 10, 1994. I actually played Blossom BEFORE ever seeing a show there: our high school marching band performed with the Cincinnati Pops, and it wasn't till the following year that I went to my very first show. It was $5 tickets for Green Day. Just before show time, someone sitting a few feet from me on the lawn was yelling for a friend of his, who was seated close to the front of the lawn. This guy was having no luck getting his friend's attention, so he threw a clump of grass. Well, the grass missed its target and hit someone else, who proceeded to turn around and throw a clump right back. That clump hit a friend of mine, who threw more grass. And that's how quickly and accidentally the lawn got destroyed."
