I've only been to a few concerts that were here in Macon at the Cherry Blossom Festival Street Party. Did I say street party? What a crock! Welcome to Macon! It's over by 11, and they make it so confusing to buy alcohol that the last one I went to I turned around and left.
But they do book some pretty good shows *sometimes*
38 Special.
Molly Hatchet. AWESOME show!
Joan Jett. I was right up to the stage. She was SO hot!
I took a girl on a date to see a Greg Allman & Friends concert a few years ago. We really didn't pay much attention to that show tho. But the folks sitting around us got a pretty good show of their own.
Mike.
p.s. Wednesday, when did you see David Allen Coe? Did he do any of the songs from his 2 underground albums? I've heard that once in a while he will. I've got both of them on CD, "Nothing Sacred" and "Underground". Nasty but funny! (well most of them)
Probably the best performers ( in my opinion) were:
Average White Band
Teena Marie
Tower of Power
Oldies, sure, but guaranteed to bring the house down every time.
Unfortunately, I seldom go to concerts, because I hate the crowds. I am developing some kind of phobia in regards to strangers touching me, and it makes it too difficult to deal.

Teena Marie
She's another one of my vocal favs. Portuguese. I'd go out on a limb for her.
Brummie
Best shows I've attended...Quasi, Sonic Youth, Fugazi, Sleater Kinney (free show at local record store!)
Morrissey, Wilco, Lambchop....
and best show so far Belle & Sebastian 9-11-01
