Roomed with a western kansan'er this past semester. Let me tell you, this guy was about as hick as it gets.

True story: he showed up with boots made out of an ostrich. Seriously. Wearing a flightless bird on your feet passes for style out there. Just bizarre.

Damn, white people.

My first real concert was also at the Kansas Coliseum. Brandy opened for Boyz II Men in 1995, this was Brandy's first tour and her first album and after Boyz II Men released II. Fantastic concert.

Was this the Budwieser Superfest Tour, which oddly enough, no bear was served at the concert? I remember going to a Boyz II Men concert around this time. don't remember brandy being there, but do remember Silk (I think). Bel Biv Devoe was supposed to be there and canceled....

First concert in wichita was Motley Crue Dr Feelgood Tour when I was 14. Won the tickets on the radio.

Jawbreaker: They were some kind of pop/punk thing. Pretty OK.

Come on, the music thread is named after you.

No, I would have love to have seen Silk. The concert I saw was for the II tour

This hasn't been a very good day for you and times, days, years, etc.

First concert I saw in Wichita was Lita Ford opening for Motley Crue. I think I saw Skid Row open for Bon Jovi there that same year.

Good news, they're all playing at Barnacle Bill's Fantasea this summer.

Probably my bad on that one, i'd intended to include the year... Videodrone has been broken up for close to 15 years now.

Not true. Motley Crue just announced that they're breaking up.

I also was at Lita Ford/Crue concert. Dr. Feelgood Tour. Other Wichita concerts were:
Cinderella/Bullet Boys/Winger

(Lots of hairspray at this one)
Van Halen (Sammy Hagar)
Tesla
George Strait/some Canadian chick
Ted Nugent out at Lake Afton at some music fest.
Kid Rock/Jaime Johnston at IBA.
Know I saw a few others at various establishments but was to pakd to remember/realize who they were.

Pearl Jam / Urge Overkill, Century II. The bootleg recording CD was called "World Jam" and I have it!

Winger / Blackfish, West Bank Stage, first ever T-95 Oz Fest.

Collective Soul, KS Coliseum, also some cheap T-95 promotion.

Spin Doctors / Sponge, Sedgwick County Park. Terrible venue, terrible bands!

Green Day, Cotillion Ballroom

Foo Fighters / Ween, Cotillion. Ween played "The HIV Song" and we were all like, "Who are these guys?

"

Bush / Goo Goo Dolls / No Doubt, KS Coliseum. Fun fact: the Goos had to play a rushed set because their lead singer had hiccups or some other ailment.

Smashing Pumpkins, KS Coliseum. The floor had seats because of the Pumpkins' stance against moshing.

Stone Temple Pilots / Cheap Trick, KS Coliseum. The night before my last day of high school!

Third Eye Blind / Space Monkeys, Cotillion. Met Stephen Jenkins afterward - he was the worst. I'm still sad that grade-A douche like that got to bang Charlize Theron. The Space Monkeys guy was cool, though.
