For anyone who is interested in the Waukesha show, I emailed the contact on the www.waukeshacountyfair.com website and the person who responded assured me that although Soul Asylum is playing with Everclear, they are not promoting them as an "opening" band, but double bill. Both bands will get equal...

If it's beloved, why are you selling it??

I wish I could say it was something cooler, but it was Rick Springfield, who to me still has that retro cool thing going on. Who doesn't love Jessie's Girl and a guy who would put his dog on his album covers? Also was my first concert in 1983 when I was in 8th grade. True story. 2 years later would ...

Hey, Radio Guy- I saw Soul Asylum on the same tour with Living Color at UW Milwaukee and I remember telling Corey Glover when they finished and he was helping clean up their gear that normally I get impatient with the opening bands at SA shows because I want to just see SA, but that they were pretty...

Sorry to anyone who disagrees, but I say go Dave go! There's a lot more to be mad about in my opinion that the Bushes have done than Katrina! But I'm happy that anyone who disagrees can enjoy the music on it's merits and agree to disagree! That's part of what makes this a great country!

Here are a few: Minneapolis bands - Husker Du / Sugar/ Bob Mould, Replacements, Golden Smog, Gear Daddies etc Maritime - from Milwaukee, Matt Pond PA , X / Exene / John Doe / Knitters, Morphine / Twinemen, Riverboat...

Thank you for the story! Sorry, I didn't see that the cough was already recognized. I'll have to come up with something else original

My first SA show was September 29th, 1985 in Green Bay WI, and they played with X, so I wonder if this show was from that same tour? I have a flyer from that show, but it doesn't show SA on it. I'll try to post it. I have it up on myspace.
