One fun thing for me is that I’ve probably listened to Don’t Tell Me It’s Over fewer than any other Blink song that isn’t from Buddha or Uranus, so I’m excited to have a half-fresh song to play on repeat ad infinitum.
Worcester palladium by chance? Still one of my favorite shows to date. Can't believe it was in a room that small..
Haha yeah. Wild after seeing them at the Centrum the year before. I have my stub somewhere. The old days when you'd go to Strawberries to buy tickets lol
I think I got dude ranch late 97 but it's nearly pristine haven't touched it since 98. Hated that the jacket was a fold out lol.
Yes! We may have talked about this before but the MT&TS at the Centrum in 2000 was my first show ever and then getting to see them and ALK3 & SUM41 a year later in a much smaller room was awesome. I don't think I got the tickets at Strawberries but that was my go to shop and I'm still kind of amazed looking back I was able to get 4 tickets to that Palladium show. I remember they were handing out free Vagrant CD samplers after the show and there were so many good bands on there too..
I’m pretty sure I got my blink/Radio 104 Fest 2001 tickets from Strawberries. I want to say maybe I got Pop Disaster/104 Fest tickets online from Strawberries too.
Yeah same. 2000 I started buying tickets, I think it was Strawberries for like 4 or 5 years from that point
Loved a 104fest. Even greater appreciation now for the 20 bands for 20 bucks when festivals are charging crazy amounts.
104 Fest in 2001 and 2002 were fantastic with those line ups, became a fan of s many bands during those shows. I miss random smaller music festivals like that.
One of those 104fests The Used played hella early before I knew of them. I saw them from far away but forever mad I couldn't appreciate that in the moment lol
The 2001 Fest is when I first heard of Good Charlotte and became a big fan. Was bummed that when they played in 2002 their set was cut short because there was an issue in the crowd so they had to stop playing for awhile. Unwritten Law was great in 2002 and it was right after they got super popular with Seein’ Red. And I remember Stroke 9 had a fun set list in 2002 too. I saw a flier years ago that said Alkaline Trio was there in 2001 but don’t remember them there.
Great find! Alien Ant Farm wasn’t there, I remember they said they has a transportation issue. I don’t remember Jimmy Eat World being there.
I def saw JEW that year. They were on the side stage as you walked down from the main stage. this was my first concert ever and I was so pumped at the time to see orgy
Hmm yeah I don't think Trio was there, when I saw them in May was the 2nd time I saw them and I got into them after that. I def would've known lol Somewhere I have a pic I got with Tim from Sugarcult, he was just walking around
My friends met Travis in 2001, he was hanging out by the buses and they saw him through the fence and yelled for him and he walked over and signed their shirts. I missed out on that because I was hanging out on the lawn and didn’t hear my Nokia cell phone ring.
Also lol Grover Dill and Throne, for like four years one of those bands would open literally every CT show. I remember Grover Dill opened for Count The Stars, Hidden In Plain View and Early November at The Space in Hamden
Bunch of 104fest footage in there. One of these days I'm gonna spend a whole day trying to find footage from those shows lol
