I saw Sheryl Crow when she opened up for The Eagles on their Hell Freezes Over tour in 1994. I had never heard of her before, but she was pretty good as the opener. She’s one of those artists where I won’t go out of my way to listen to her, but I also usually won’t change the station when one of her songs comes on (sorry not sorry Sir Elton and Red Hot Chili’s). What is most memorable for me about that night was that Giants Stadium stopped selling beer at the concession stands, but because my buddy had scored us some luxury box seats we were able to order beers by the case through catering. We were able to hook up many of the thirsty folks who were sitting just outside of our box, while at the same time making a profit on the night. The concert was pretty good too. Either way - still not my favorite Crow(e).

So are we putting the feud to bed? Did Sheryl win or are we going to revisit this in a year when CJ pitches Crimes of Passion?

No way! If anything, this adds fuel to the fire. This was such a promising debut and then she does stuff like "Soak Up The Sun" and those absolutely un-for-givable covers of "Sweet Child o' Mine" and "The First Cut is the Deepest". No contest. Pat still rulz!
