Weezer... I saw them on tour for Green album before it actually came out. I remember the excitement of a new song being played live ("Island In The Sun"). So I have a super soft spot for that album honestly.
Now Maladroit - whoo what a weird album. See, I actually think it works quite nice juxtaposed against something like Amnesiac (which is my fav Radiohead album). One year and two vastly different records by two favorite and long-standing bands. I mean go back and listen to Maladroit. What a fucking weird mess of an album. It's like... stoner rock pop. Honestly, Maladroit is an album that gets better to me with time. I remember getting super into it again in 2007, and now again.
As a side note, is it weird that I think I like No Code more than Vitalogy?

Dont be jealous that I saw Nirvana. I was tagging along with family, and I was young. It was in ... '93? ... and I remember so little that it's actually kind of a curse. I was a fan to the extent that I could be a fan at such a young age, but I only have glimpses in my head that are warped by time. Trying to hang on to them is incredibly frustrating, because shit just slips away, so I usually don't even mention it. Same thing happened when I saw Jerry Garcia with the Dead in '95. I remember so little that I don't feel like I even deserve to claim it as a life experience.
Though maybe I've just done too many drugs in my life, because it's not like I was 5 at the time. Hmmm...
