New(old) Show to add to Hipbase
#1

Found an old ticket stub...my first show!

Friday Feb 9 1990
Scarborough Campus
"In The Meeting Place"
ticket #85
advance $7.00
door $9.00

Not much more to add except to say...
It was a crazy pub experience with people buying as many beers(drafts) as they could carry, and GD had the long hair happening Smile
Even back then, he was really on!
It was presented by S.C.S.C....Not sure what that stands for.
If I remember correctly it was the UofT Scarborough Campus...though it doesn't mention UofT, at all, on the ticket
Oh ya...my buddy forgot his ID and couldn't watch the show with us, and he was the one who told us "you gotta see this band"...he ended up watching from the balcony, but no beer up there Sad

I can prolly scan the ticket stub, if its required for proof, to back it up the claim, to add to the Hipbase setlist/show site.

It's been a good ride...

It's a good life....

i wonder how many people on this site were still in diapers when that show happened... or worse, how many weren't even born?

Good point. I was old enough that I was a fan, but too young to go to the show.

I was in High School, and just about to start appreciating them.

Oh man...ya'll are making me feel old :lol:

I have the ticket scan on my hard drive now...maybe it's best to email it to someone...cause I have no idea how to upload it as picture, to this site(I looked, but couldn't find a way to do it-attachment??)

It's kind of a cool ticket stub to see, so if anyone can help just let me know.

$7.00 advance...almost 18 years ago...after that 1 show, I knew there was something special happening.

Special thanks go to my friend who lead me there and said "check this band out".

I totally remember this gig happening as I went to UoT-Scarborough Campus - this was my first year of University . I do remember thinking that I should go to the show but didn't end up going as I was communting to University from Markham. Of course I regret not gong to the show now.

I think SCSC stands for Scarborough Campus Student Council. (a guess).
