Santana/October 2,1991/Burlington,VT

This was my first concert as a University of Vermont student. I knew almost nothing about Santana at the time. Some of my UVM pals walked down to Memorial Auditorium with me that night. A few of us were very high at the show. As a result, my memories are a bit muddy.

I was astounded at Carlos Santana's virtuosity on guitar. The guy just had an aura,and I couldn't take my eyes off him. He spent a lot of time looking at his bandmates and NOT looking at the audience. This struck me as odd and unnatural at the time. Now I know that's simply how he interacts with his band. I walked back to my dorm afterward just speechless. There was nothing I could say to explain what I just witnessed. Mind=Blown.

Below the ticket stub is a Santana show from 1 month after this concert.
