Back in early March of 1993, I came home from college for the weekend to take my sister and one of her friends up to Rosemont to see Bon Jovi at the Horizon. The opening act was the Jeff Healey Band, most notable for their blind lead singer and guitarist and a favorite of one of my high school teachers.
I will be honest and say that I don’t remember much about the show itself. Looking at setlists on the Internet, the boys from New Jersey seemed to put on a pretty good show that night, performing 20 different songs over the course of the night, 6 of which were from their new album, Keep The Faith.
My main memory of this show was roaming around the Horizon once the concert was over, trying to find where we had parked. After more than 20 years, I guess that is better than nothing. As things would turn out, this would be my last trip to the Rosemont Horizon for any reason until the early 2000s.
