I moved from North Dakota to Seattle in August of 1995. I arrived during rush hour traffic on a Friday afternoon heading north to a city called Lynnwood. I had never in my life seen so many cars, nor been in stop and go traffic. I decided to check out the local radio stations rather than my own cassettes. This was the first song I heard on 99.9 FM. After the song, the radio station had an advertisement for the upcoming Bumbershoot music festival....never heard of it.
A week later, I went to Bumbershoot and watched: Deftones, No Doubt, Mudhoney, Reverend Horton Heat, Sweet Water, Parliament, Ramones, 10,000 Maniacs, and more. It. Was. A glorious weekend of music. Been going to Bumbershoot ever since.
