Wanted to do 17 miles in Minneapolis today, but reverted to 14 in Eagan and Apple Valley because of the thunderstorms

Tonight was the least crowded I’ve seen Mystic Lake in a while – great food and hit two small progressives

I’d also hazard a guess that the last open to the public, ticketed event at First Avenue was March 3, 1986 – thirty years ago

Paisley Park (1987) and Glam Slam (1989-1997) basically took over for non-tour events in Minnesota

So it looks like the last First Avenue appearance was an after show following a Target Center gig on July 8, 2007
