In terms of the crowd, Stardust Ball was incredible. There was no fence, no pushing, no crushing and no moshing. I even had a little bit of space in which I could dance (which I took full advantage of!). The only real problem at Stardust was that the stage was really high so if you were in the front, you could only see the guys from the knees up!

July 13, 1997

Stardust Ball was a great show. It was also the oddest mix of people I've ever seen at a concert. The bands that played at this show were so diverse that they each drew a completely different crowd of people. A couple of really memorable things happened at this show. I got a chance to speak with all four guys (and Danny!) after the show and I met a lot of new friends including Sarah, Jennifer, Karen, Amanda and Ardene. It was definitely an amazing night!
