This would have been my third concert and likely my sophomore year in High School. It was also my first one at a venue that was not Omni, and general admission concert experience where there aren’t seats, but rather a free for all of humanity.

I went with 3 friends, Dave, Rob, and Danny. I’m pretty sure Ministry was the draw for all of us and they were supporting the album Psalm 69 that year. The original middle slot was supposed to be Helmet, but they had an accident on an icy patch of road on their way to the show. Those icy patches of roads would make another appearance in the tale, but we will crash into that road sign when the time is right. Ice T’s Body Count was added as a last-minute replacement.
