I've seen four great shows in small venues.

In 1980 I saw Deep Purple at a small club in Alaska.  We were actually sitting 
at tables and ordering beers watching Deep Purple.  Awesome show. 

While in the Marines I was stationed at Ft. Sill Oklahoma for a few months and 
drove down from to Wichita Falls Texas to see the Clash in a what looked like a 
theater with the seats removed. I was standing in the front row when the bass 
player looked down and saw a button I was wearing that said "I hate people".  
He pointed at it and gave me a thumbs up. So I took it off and offered it to 
him.  He stopped playing mid-song and reached down and took it from me.  

I'm a huge David Bowie fan and have seen him upwards of 10 times.  But back in 
about 1997 my soon to be brother-in-law got me tickets to see Bowie with Tin 
Machine indoors at Kezar  (probably misspelled) Stadium in San Francisco.  That 
place couldn't have held more than a thousand people.  You could walk up to the 
front of the stage at almost anytime without having to push and fight to get 
there.  I thought I was in heaven. 

In the early 90's I caught Ice-T at the Classic Juke Box in Roseville 
California.  After about my fourth or fifth Ice-T (it seemed like the right 
thing to be drinking)  I jumped up on stage grabbed Ice-t's hat dove off the 
stage handed off the hat to my cousin and popped back up several feet away from 
where I dove into the audience but without the hat. So although security 
thought it was me I didn't have the hat so they just kept looking at me but 
didn't do anything.  A great time was had by all.  I still have the hat. 

Man what a great trip down memory lane.
