  • Concert season

    three shows I would like to see this summer:

    1. Heart, Cheap Trick and Joan Jett
    2. Steely Dan and Steve Winwood
    3. Yes who will be performing "Side 1 and Side 4 of Tales From Topographic Oceans" and "Drama" albums. Two albums that I love. But no Chris Squire will be a bummer.

    Any shows you guys are looking forward to?

    Dandy Warhols, Chris Cornell and Neil Young upcoming (not together obviously).

    RHCP, Brian Jonestown Massacre later in the summer.

    Was debating the Longitude Festival in Dublin. Would be nice to see Kendrick Lamar in his prime (and Chvrches), but I feel my festival hopping days are behind me.

      Got RJEL Girl tickets to Hall and Oats. At least this time I got them from the venue rather than paying out my ass for aftermarket tickets.

      Subways in SF in a month or so.
      I'm not expecting to grow flowers in the desert...

        They were a great live band, but fell right off my radar ... haven't heard anything by them since the 2000's.

          We're planning a road trip to the south in June and just discovered an interesting festival in Little Rock. Obviously a bunch of country acts, but also XAmbassadors, Flaming Lips, and George Clinton who I'd love to see before he stops performing. We're gonna try to make it work.
          It certainly feels that way. But I'm distrustful of that feeling and am curious about evidence.

              And a good friend of mine is going (again) to Prima Vera in Barcelona. They always have an awesome lineup - this year it's Radiohead (first live performance since 2012), pj Harvey, suede, and a bunch more. Maybe next year.

                I have one album and know a few songs from Pandora. They seem like they would be a fun band live, so what the hell.

                  My wife and I are considering Heart, Cheap Trick, Joan Jett this summer. Not sure yet.

                    Heard bout this one on the radio -http://m.en.canoe.com/Music/2016/04/18/22625125-wenn-story.html?cid=rssentertainmentmusic

                    That's a pretty insane lineup - that would cross off a bunch of bucket list bands for me.

                        I'd go see Bob Mould again in a second

                              Ted Leo was fantastic the one time I saw him. Tiny tiny TINY venue in philly. Like bar sized.
