With Campfire Girls and Your Enemies’ Friends.

Spoon / The Graceland / Seattle WA (October 19, 2002)

With the Oranges and Treasure State.

Guided By Voices / The Showbox / Seattle WA (June 23, 2002)

I recall this show being pretty good. With My Morning Jacket. The flyer also lists the previous night’s show in Portland.

Mercury Rev / Showbox / Seattle WA (June 14, 2002)

The Shins opened the show.

Tanya Donelly / Showbox / Seattle WA (April 27, 2002)

With Chris Lee.

The Shins / Graceland / Seattle WA (April 13, 2002)

With the Fruit Bats, the Busy Signals, and Treasure State. Also lists the next night’s all ages show.

Hot Rod Circuit / Graceland / Seattle WA (March 19, 2002)

This show didn’t happen–a blizzard east of Seattle kept the touring bands from getting into town. I think Vendetta Red and SMAT played, but we didn’t stick around. We probably went bowling.

Dressy Bessy / Graceland / Seattle WA (March 6, 2002)

With Death Ray Davies and Plan B (featuring James from Automaton).

Jay Farrar / The Granada / Lawrence KS (February 26, 2002)

With Mark Spencer.

Guided By Voices / The Hurricane / Kansas City MO (February 24, 2002)

This is the show, or at least a show, at which Bob Pollard played guitar live, for one song, to discredit those who doubted he could really play. I forget the song, though.

With the Anniversary (not credited on the flyer).

Jay Farrar / The Showbox / Seattle WA (January 29, 2002)

With Brian Henneman. Would it have killed them to come out together to perform, say, “Indianapolis?” Apparently it would have, because they didn’t.
