I remember something about this one!
This would be my Dinosaur Jr. do-over after the stage mishap at the previous year's Lollapalooza and I was going to do it right...in the front, on the rail. We got there early enough or I was weasely enough to get to the very front of everything. My prize for this....a boot print shaped bruise on my back.
Ah, the days of combat boots. They make perfect battering rams for crowd surfers to use on the people standing in front. You never see it coming, either. You're just minding your own business, enjoying one of your favorite bands, squished up against a metal guard rail while your hair gets pulled and you're covered with other people's sweat when bam! Boot to the back.
The bruise made me feel tough.
