Promise Ring (Part 2) 1999 Houston Live Concert

This is a 10/27/99 Promise Ring playing "Why Did We Ever Meet?", "Forget Me" (starts at 3:45) and "Red and Blue Jeans" (7:28) at Mary Jane's in Houston. The opening act Burning Airlines clip is also on Youtube. The Promise Ring were one of the best live bands of the 90's and included David Von Bohlen, Jason Gnewikow, Dan Didier and Scott Schoenbeck. The band gives an amazing performance under horrible conditions. The club was insanely hot and crowded. They waited 2 hours until everybody was soaking wet before turning on the air conditioning full blast. You can see that guitarist Jason Gnewikow seems on the verge of passing out throughout much of the show, but never misses a note.

@muiscnight It's hard to believe that was 12 years ago. I remember it was a Wednesday, so it would have been a school night.

Did you get sick too? The way the club didn't turn on the air until everybody was soaking wet and then hit it full blast made me ill for months.

@chasspeed haha oh nooo. months?? i laughed but i know its not funny.

[chasspeed]

@kkasabian I really did have a fever for 2 months and never went to the doctor. I finally woke up one morning soaking wet and it was finally over.
