I was just 14 years old when Live released Throwing Copper. I was just beginning to become an angsty and obnoxious teen, and the raw energy of songs like “I Alone,” ‘Selling the Drama,” and the monster hit “Lightening Crashes” struck a raw nerve. That sort of musical mark leaves an impression that never goes away. Last night I took a trip back to that period of my life, and saw Ed (or Eddie as he’s calling himself these days) Kowalczyk do his acoustic thing at the Enmore.
