    Ha! Thanks. Yeah, I know there's some seriously questionable stuff there. I went to all sorts of things in the nineties (and early noughties) that I look back on now and wonder what I was thinking, more so since there were people who played at the same time that I didn't go to see, for some bizarre reason. Still, if nothing else, it's a pretty diverse collection.
