I still have the t-shirt!!

I have been a Floyd fan since I was 8 or so and never really was a big concert goer. Then when they announced that they where going to tour in 1994 (to promote the Division Bell album and secret farewell tour), my best friend (who is a Floyd fan as well) skipped one of the biggest high school senior activities to go to the concert. No it wasn't graduation. We figured we would have more fun seeing Pink Floyd live than people we didn't care to see again after seeing them our whole lives. Apparently so did a few of our stoner classmates. As much as I smoked that night, I still remember the whole concert it like it was a few months ago. Shoot, we still talk about it.

I remember that Steve pulled a ticket that got him in 3rd in line for ticket sales (to deture people from sleeping at the box office) and got the best seats for us. I was extra happy that we didn't get seats in the field, everyone stood the whole time and it rained on all of them. We were bone dry in the last row before the field starts.
