I saw Aimee Mann... for the first, but not last time

The first time I saw Aimee. Semisonic opened for her, and when she introduced the band, she joked and reminded the audience she was “Alanis”.
I saw Nine Inch Nails + Meat Beat Manifesto... And Dudes Fell From the Balcony!

I don’t remember a lot about this show, except the following:
1) A Sea of Black clothes
2) Sweat. Lots and lots of sweat
3) Some jackass imitating Eddie Vedder by doing the backwards “dead fall” from the balcony into the crowd.
