August 2004 was loaded.
August 5. Funk Junkies at The Rockwell.
August 7. Rasputina at Bricktown Live. Three women, stand-up bass, cello-driven chaos. Twelve-dollar ticket.
Two days later it explodes.
August 9, 2004. Lamb of God, Atreyu, Every Time I Die, and Unearth at Cain's Ballroom.
Sixteen bucks.
That was a violent lineup for $16.
Packed floor. No bad sightlines. Hard tickets sold at Starship, Jam Shack, The Bag in Broken Arrow, VCF, Choice. Real outlets. Real paper tickets. No service fees stacking up.
Same night at Bricktown Live?
Finger Eleven, Thornley, Strata, and Moments in Grace.
Ticket was $18.75. Might’ve even lost money on it.
But that’s the era.
Two stacked shows. Same night. Different crowds. Different energy. One city choosing where to be.
That was 2004.
