I had to fill out a back to school sheet for my oldest son. After I dated it I noticed that I had written 8-25-91. Ha!

Thanks so much for those, @CrunchBerries!

It’s funny, one of the links is titled “Old Renaissance Faire Grounds.” The first couple of years, what is now the Oregon Country Fair was billed as a Renaissance Faire. The Ren Faire in California sued and forced the name change. For the better, IMO.

Even with the new bar vs pip, I’m still outta likes! HA!

Thank you, @CrunchBerries! I worked security at that show and had a bad tooth. I’ve told the story before, so I won’t rehash it. I will say it was a great fucking time!

That was the Oregon Field Trip show, colloquially known as the Decadence concert, since it had been a decade since the Grateful Dead had played on the Country Fair property. I gave my staff t-shirt to my son. It remains in pristine condition.

They played in essentially the same place on the property both times. That area is now known as the Dead Lot. It’s the farthest on-site parking from the Country Fair’s entrance. You don’t want to park there and have to pack all your shit into the fair proper and then out again. It’s also where towed cars go, and lots of vehicles get towed.
