Ocean Blue - Slim's

Suzanne Vega/Bob Hillman - Fillmore

Kristin Hersh - Borders SF

Doves - Bimbo's 365 Club

The Doves were awesome.  However, I did not manage to make it to the venue in time to catch the Strokes, who were the opening act.  I would finally get to see the Strokes for the first time when they played the Fillmore later in 2001.

Mojave 3 - Slim's

Mojave 3/Sid Hillman Quartet - Slim's

I remember that, during a particularly melancholy song, a girl standing in front of me looked back at me with such a sad look on her face.

Mingus Big Band - Yoshi's

Luna - Fillmore

Stereophonics - Slim's

Coldplay - Fillmore

Yes, Coldplay performed at the Fillmore before they became huge.

Promise Ring/Deathray - Great American Music Hall

A Perfect Circle/Snake River Conspiracy - SJSU Events Center
