Schubas History

So I just went through the list of people who've played Schubas since '94 (they opened in '89) and wrote the names of those I considered "noteworthy". It took a long time, but it's a pretty impressive and long list. The lack of punctuation is intentional and the order is chronological.

Wasn't Tori Amos' first show at Schubas, too? Yeah yeah, I know Tori Amos blah blah blah.

You're right, but that must have been pre 94. I gotta talk to Schuba boys about that.
