I went to the Stax museum and as I was walking out, 4 cop cars flew by at around 80 mph. No lie.

I honestly can't remember back that far. :(
I can't even remember most of the concert, and I was sober. Hopefully the recording dealy will spark some memories.

I don't know what it is. I can remember EVERYTHING, but when it comes to 311 concerts I can't remember shit. There aren't even live recordings of any of my shows on archive. The only hope I have is for this HDnet thing, whatever the hell that is, and the possibility of a 311 day album. They gotta post some news on that or something:!:

I think thats why people forget. Its such a high bein there that your caught up in the moment. I can remember big things like songs they play, but its hard to remember the details.

I was lucky to be able to download 2/3 shows I went to this past tour.

Since we are on race issues... When I went to a 311 show at Purdue University, it was ALL asian people around and in the university. Honestly, there were 9/10 asians walking around. But when we got into the arena thing, there like two out of a few thousand. Weird.

I actually dont think ive ever seen any black people at a 311 show. i think the main reason for this is because most black people (at least the ones i know) refuse to listen to something that is not rap, it pisses me off. Once they hear an actual instrument they freak out and call it shit and wont listen.

I'm talkin about in school. Someone will put on music ona computer and there are a million complaints if it isnt rap.

I can't remember what order the songs were played in. After looking at the setlist after I came home, I was confused.

I work with a 22 y/o black guy and he digs 311 since I've been bringing it in. I def have seen only one black guy at a 311 show.

I remember after 311 day 04 my friend and I were so sure that 311 played electricity and what was I thinking...and then we found out they didn't but we both remember hearing them at the show haha. I think they played them at the fan party the night before and that is why we thought they were played haha.
