Concert Stories #13: O-Town


O-Town
Pabst or Riverside Theater
2000 or 2001

Somewhere along the line I saw O-Town.  Yes, the band put together by MTV, but you know what?  They were surprisingly great live! As usual, my brother received these tickets for his birthday and was forced to take me along with him.  It was the first concert I had been to where everyone in the audience got something free - a glow stick!  It seems rather simple now, but at the time I thought it was a pot of gold.  

Lugo opened the show.  If you are wondering who that is, me to (sorry Lugo).  Then O-Town came out and gave a great show.  They had a lot of energy and I remember that they sounded good live (they did not appear to be lip syncing from what I recall).  The choreography and presentation was also very tight.  Before the show I had really wondered why I was going, why didn't I let my brother take a friend? But after, I was really glad I had forced my way along with.  Absolutely a fun night!
