Ten Days of Concerts - Day 4 (most inebriated you got)

Recommended Posts

I'd say it was a Sammy concert, although don't recall if it was just him and the Wabos or if it was a Sammy and Dave show both playing with Van Halen.

 

Wasn't driving so I started early, doing shots in the parking lot. And don't think I ever let up. Don't really remember much of that show :wacko:

 

Of course, that's just the alcohol ;ninja:

In '94 we were in the RFK parking lot before Pink Floyd, Division Bell. Among other things, some were cranking through whippets. I am leaning against the front of a car and out of the corner of my eye (a fleeting glimpse?) I see one of my friends, a very large black dude, racing at me and he isn't stopping. I step aside and he slams head first into the grill of the car and starts bleeding all over the place. Everyone standing around is like WTF. Whippets are a temporary insanity experience.

 

Drinking was Jimmy Buffett at Merriweather Post in the 80's and 90's. Best concert atmosphere in the DC area.

Dave Matthews Band.

 

In the company suite at the Palace of Auburn Hills. Too many beers, not enough food. If memory serves me correctly, this was my first two-day hangover ever.

by the time the headliner comes on, I am so krunk I usually forget most of their show.

I think it was Seal, but I can't remember. A long time ago.

 

Pine Knob, now DTE. It's an outdoor venue and there is a big hill people sit on that goes down towards the actual seating and stage. At the end of the show I stood facing uphill, lost my balance and did backwards somersaults all the way down, stopped only by a young couple sitting on their blanket as I plowed into them with a good head of steam.

No. I think I was tagging along with my older sisters and their boyfriends and friends. So, basically, just as bad.

I generally go to shows to enjoy the music, so I don't like to drink too much. The worst I got was when I had maybe 1 too many to drive home at a Tool show about 5 years ago and had to ask my friend to drive us home in my car.

Took a party bus to Minneapolis from Grand Forks ND to see ZZ Top back in the day drinking the whole way ( 5 hrs) . Went to the back of the bus to take a pizz. I was smoking a clove cigarette (yes you could smoke on a bus back then) There were a few of cruzer's cousins sitting back there. When they smelt my cig, they said stick around and we'll smoke a j as the smell of the cig was stronger than the weed. We got to the concert early and hit a bar. While sitting in the bar they gave me a hit of acid, don't remember shiot from then on. :bandana:

Back in college....for some reason 5 of us had tickets to see Lenny Kravitz, with Buckcherry as opening band. This was back when Buckcherry's big hit was Lit Up. We loved the cocaine. Dave and I were going for Buckcherry, but some girls with us were into LK obviously.....anyway about 2 hours before we were leaving, Dave and I started doing shots of half sprite-half rum. It started at 1 per minute, but don't know how long we kept that pace. We did drink an entire bottle though.

 

I remember we were late for the show and Dave drunkenly convinced himself it was fine because Lenny was actually opening for Buckcherry.....I recall Lenny walking out and going right into Fly Away, and Dave yelling "Boom! Buckcherry! Told ya!". But that's all I kind of recall, and it may be a case of me just having heard the story a couple times and imagining remembering it .....In the end I learned I puked on the walk in, inside the show again, was escorted back to the car by one of the girls and puked in the parking lot, and I puked inside the vehicle while sleeping it off. The next day I remember laying in the shower for 2-3 hours and at some point puking again .....That was a Thursday night and I wasn't able to eat solid food until Sunday night, and that was only because I had dinner plans with my parents and didn't want them to know I was sick.

 

The coolest thing about the story....2 of the 3 girls, this was our first time meeting them....and one of those girls ended up becoming my wife. :music_guitarred:

I don't remember.

 

My father brought me and freinds to see Dio at The Meadowlands in his companies corporate box. We were 15 or so.

 

Father (RIP) drank too much and one of my friends had his learners permit so he drove home to Long Island from NJ

 

:cheers:

Tripping my face off at a Lee Scratch Perry concert in Philly sometime in the late 90s. There was booze and pot involved too I am sure.

 

I saw Fugazi headline a 5-6 band show a few years later and was so ripped when they came on I don't remember their set at all. Still one of my favorite bands and I regret how drunk I got.

Went to see Pink Floyd at Nassau Vetetens Coliseum with a group of friends of course we were tripping out. One of the guys broke off from the group.

 

Next day I happened to be in Uniondale home of NVMC and going to Roy Rogers for lunch and the guy that got lost gets up and stumbles out of the bushes totally disoriented sees me and asks for a ride home.

 

Doesn't remember a thing only wearing pants. Lost everything else.
