Cracker

I think this was my first show at the Rave, on the ground floor (The Eagles Ballroom is upstairs). I think there were two opening acts. I have no idea who the first one was, but I remember the bassist came out to the edge of the stage and sung a song off-mike. They seemed like a local band. Rather loose, performance-wise. I think the Silos were next. I really don't remember it at all, though, so that's just a guess.

Cracker was great. I didn't have the album at the time, so I went on the strength of their two hits, "Teen Angst (What the World Needs Now)" and "Low". I loved the show and soon bought the album. Good old fashioned rock and roll, and alt-country, with David Lowery's sense of humor.
