I hope they do the Wharf runs again. That 3 or 4 year span when they came down for the weekend were wild


I love that run. I caught my 1st 2nd and 3rd shows during one of those runs

I have been to easily 1000+ concerts in my life and the only time I have ever cried at a concert was during Don't Be Denied at Oak Mountain during Mikey's last run.

That shite still gets me!!!

Ask any old spreadhead what their top ten WSP shows are, Monroe, La 1996 will be on the list. Crazy.



10/14/96 Civic Center, Monroe, LA

1: Holden Oversoul > Dirty Business > Impossible > Radio Child > Barstools and Dreamers, A of D, Send Your Mind, Heroes, Blackout Blues

2: Ain't Life Grand, Hatfield > Rock, Vacation > Cream Puff War, Wondering, Conrad, Help Me Somebody

E: Red Beans




I remember the song that hooked me. A friend in the summer of 2004 gave me a bootleg of the Bonnaroo 2002 2nd night. The Diner from the first set with Mikey's guitar's chainsaw like sound. Man I listened to that show literally all summer long. This Part of Town was a great one too. Soo glad my friend gave me those CD's.

For the youngin's, this song is considers the peak of Panic's career. This bowlegged is sooo badass.

I was at the '01 run... But as for as Bowlegged being the peak...the Sweet Leaf from '00 may beg to differ ... However if you're gonna talk about the best Panic ever... I'd have to go with Oak mountain '01
