ox01a4 So this was my 1st show. I got a free ticket from a friend at Western Illinois University and hopped in a 3 card train of people who had already been fans. I had heard a live one and liked some of the songs. I had no idea how this would change my appreciation for live music. Since I had little frame of reference there was not many songs I knew. I missed Chalk dust as we were still trying to get into the show.

The first thing that hit me was the light show, and how the entire audience was completely in tune and entranced with what was happening on stage and above the stage. We did not stay in our seats the whole show and were kind of hopping from area to area so it was cool to get different views. I think this was just during set break but it has been 20+ years so who knows. I guess some folks had seats one place or another and there was what I know know as the traditional shuffle of moving to the best open area which can accommodate your friends.

They closed with a song I knew from a live one which was great and by the time they covered Bold as love I was already sold.
