The first tour after UB-40 split up and reformed as General Public |
No, I was never a fan of Kenny, but got to see many shows for free during my brief stint working as a music researcher at KGB-FM radio in San Diego |
One of the most amazing bass players EVER |
An unusual solo show with dancing, singing, & comedy |
One of a series of unusual avant-garde shows for the UCSD Pacific Rim Festival- some free like this one |
Another Pacific Rim Festival Show |
|
Another Pacific Rim Festival Show |
The last of the Pacific Rimm Festival Shows |
What a trippy show this was- with two of the largest disco balls moving in unison to the ambient -dreamy music creating an other-wordly effect. Great LA venue too! |
Epic show- amazing double bill |
Free symphony show- but I'm not sure why they were thanking San Diego |
This was great as it was outdoors under the stars next to a lagoon |
Rockin' show! Sharp-dressed man tour |
I'd been a longtime fan of Chuck and this San Diego venue was just great- bayside and intimate |
Back up to LA for another awesome show- Lives in the Balance tour |
These guys were the kings of new age jazz at that time- very talented |
Definitely worth a trip to Long Beach for this all-star line up including show all of The Eagles except Glenn Frey, (who was sick) plus Stevie Nicks, Neil Young, and Mick Fleetwood, & Joni Mitchell |
Not into them at all, but again it was a chance to get buzzed and see a show for free compliments of KGB-FM |
Bad to the Bone Tour- very fun |
Back down to Humphrey's for some classic reggae |
Floaty New Age harp music from the master himself. Awesome outdoor venue at SD State |
Riding on the Metro tour at the UCSD Gym- very danceable |
Again, not into this type of metal music at all, but hey it's free and there was this super hot radio station intern who wanted to go too :) |
Great show in spite of the hole-in-the-wall venue |
Loved Van Halen- never got to see them (not sure why), so I settled for second best..and besides...it was free! |
Another free show courtesy of KGB-FM |
and another |
I think I fell asleep at this super mellow show with Doug & Lauren |
More floaty jazz |
This was a great show (from what I recall) |
I;m sure I was inebriated at this free show |
These guys were incredible musicians |
An "avocado production" - funny |
Rock on- I loved these guys back in the day |
Psyched to see this awesome rockin' show |
Treked all the way up to Hollyweird so this- not worth it (I was never a big fan) |
More than a Feeling for sure- great show |
They call it mellow yellow for a reason...snoozer! |
The height of my Suzanne Vega obsession |
