Beck - Bill Graham Civic Auditorium

Oasis/Travis - Berkeley Community Theatre

I remember that whichever Gallagher brother was doing the singing positioned his body at a weird angle such that he was singing up into the microphone, which was angled downwards.

Paul Oakenfold/Dave Ralph - Fillmore

This was the Perfecto tour.

Luna/Mark Eitzel - Fillmore

Charlatans/Stereophonics - Warfield

Lords of Acid/Praga Khan - Maritime Hall

Filter/Chevelle - Warfield

Dido/Tara Maclean - Fillmore

Half a year after her Bimbo's appearance, Dido graduated to the big leagues and sold out the Fillmore.  I remember the place being absolutely packed.

Tara MacLean - Cafe du Nord

I remember this Canadian songstress taking great pains to make eye contact with as many people as possible while she was performing.

Smashmouth/Luscious Jackson - Bill Graham Civic Auditorium

Aimee Mann & Michael Penn - Bimbo's 365 Club

A sold out show at Bimbo's for the married couple, whom I was used to seeing at Largo in Los Angeles.  I remember hearing "Voices Carry" live for the first time.

Imperial Teen/Track Star - Bottom of the Hill
