Sep 29 1996 @ Boulder Theater Boulder, CO

Okay. Saw the tour here in Boulder, Colorado Sunday night. Much to my surprise, Fishbone did headline. I know that as of late, people on this list said they'd been closing, but awhile ago I got the impression that they hadn't. On top of that, all the posters on campus had De La Soul on top, and the tickets read DE LA SOUL / FISHBONE. So, the good news is that they weren'...

I was at this gig and I'll keep it short because the other reviewer did a pretty good job. In fact, other than my wife and me, he might have been the only other person who stuck around for Fishbone. It was sooooo sparse. I saw them in front of thousands in LA in 91 and couldn't believe this. Luckily the next time I saw them in Boulder, my faith was renewed. This was a pretty good show though really although they lost me when they brought those chicks on stage for a few songs. De La Soul, like most rap groups live, just don't do much for me although I appreciate them. And do I remember correctly that Goodie Mob was there too? Anyway, a good gig, but as far at the bone goes, not a memorable one. Although they did an awesome version of "Cholly."
