Neither I nor most of the other folks who helped put together the first Westword Music Showcase had the slightest clue what we were doing -- not really. It's nothing short of a miracle, then, that the event -- then called the Westword Music Awards Showcase -- has not only survived but thrived, and continues to use the basic template established in advance of the inaugural event, which took place on Sunday, October 8, 1995. (This year's edition happens on Saturday, June 14. Click here for details.) Yet there have been plenty of changes, too, and not just to performing bands like the Apples (pictured), who weren't even in Stereo at that point.
