High Fidelity" list style...
5 "rock fan" moments that still give me goosebumps...
Sitting glued to my radio ('92), taping a live broadcast of Pearl Jam in Atlanta... & then hearing Eddie Vedder take over the airwaves, before they cut him off.
My first VIP pass - at Smashing Pumpkins ('96), standing "this close" to Billy Corgan as he stalked off stage at MSG before the encore.
Hearing Ben Harper's "Will To Live" album ('97) for the first time... AND running in to catch Harper live the first of MANY times at H.O.R.D.E. ('98)
U2 ('05) at Continental Airlines Arena, getting into the inner circle
and having pictures to re-live it!
5 albums I can always listen to straight through...
Pearl Jam "Ten"
Ben Harper & The Innocent Criminals "Burn to Shine"
Counting Crows "August & Everything After"
