wasn't there a lot of rain around this time?

It didn't rain at all that day or during the show, but I do remember it coming down pretty hard all the next day though.

It was a blast. Was kind of like a big UGA home game ............but everybody was in town tailgating for an outdoor WSP show in the streets of downtown that night.

The "Super Jam" festivals at the fairgrounds were probably even more fun though. COuld bring coolers, kegs, couches, lawn furniture, tents, whatever you wanted. Zero law presence. ANything goes. And great great music when it was brand new.

Also, you didn't like REM?

I like some REM. Mostly the early stuff.

The whiny songs like "Losing My Religion" make me scratch my head though. But, to each his own.
