Requesting: memories, photos, merch pics (1997 Dig Your Own Hole, Denver)

So a little background: I was born the year before this tour, but I have been recently collecting original shirts/merch/anything I can get my hands on (without much luck) from this tour. The second shirt I got (Dig Your Own Hole), I was able to track down the exact concert the OG owner got it from. The April 29th 1997 concert at Ogden Theatre, Denver, CO, USA. 

It got me really curious about the memories that guy must have from that concert, and I can't find anything from it media wise. I also can't ask the OG guy himself, since I don't know his identity and he sold it to the guy I bought it from. 

So I'm basically looking for anything at all from the 1997 Dig Your Own Hole tour. It doesn't have to be from the Denver concert, but extra points if you were at Ogden Theatre back then!

Any memories/vibes of concerts, photographs, ticket stubs, posters, promotional stuff, your own collection from that time: anything you can show me! I'd love to archive/save it (if that's okay with you of course). 

I never got to experience it myself, so I'm hoping to immerse myself in the memories of the people that did. Thank you so much for reading!

I'm gonna start the replys to this thread on a weird note, but I think it's a potentially important piece of trivia. 

There's a good chance Dylan Klebold, infamously of Columbine Highschool shooter fame, being at that specific Denver concert in 1997. There is archived photos with him wearing a red Setting Sun concert shirt that could only be acquired at shows from that era. He also mentions Chemical Brothers song titles in his diarys/journals that were left behind, so it's pretty much a lock he was a fan. 

1997 seemed to be the Chemical Brothers heaviest involvement in American media (US and Canada). Throughout the forum there's several short interviews we have discussed from that era. When I have a little more time on my hands, I'll try and organize them for you.

I am actually aware of this, since it's about all I could find in relation to this specific concert. It seems he also acquired a Dig Your Own Hole shirt, so it seems he chose to get both at the same time. It's very interesting that mine comes from the same concert. The Setting Sun shirt is a really cool shirt! 

Thank you so much about the interviews, I would really appreciate that!
