I've been listening to some stuff from The Black Angels and Cold Cave. I'm really excited to see them both now.
 
Was just musing that the non-U2 concert pickings have been quite slim lately, - well, at least concerts that don't conflict with U2! I WOULD'VE gone to LCD Soundsystem, Elvis Costello, and Eddie Vedder, plus seen The Strokes locally, had they not conflicted with U2 shows I am seeing.

April 2 - U2, Buenos Aires
April 3 - U2, Buenos Aires

May 21 - U2, Denver
June 22 - U2, Baltimore
July 8 - U2, Montreal
July 9 - U2, Montreal
July 20 - U2, New Jersey

The summer schedule around here is not looking as great as last years, but we'll see.

And...the summer schedule really isn't as great as in the past few years around here. Only non-U2 show I had to look forward to was Soundgarden but once again, their NYC area dates clash head-on with U2 in Montreal... :angry:

BUT their date at Ottawa Bluesfest fits in very nicely as a side trip with Montreal for U2, so...I'm seein' them there. :)

July 5 - Soundgarden, Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros, The Flaming Lips, Tegan & Sarah @ Ottawa Bluesfest, Ottawa, Ontario

Chris Cornell better be having a good night that night, is all I have to say. ;)
 
so far this year I've seen:

Snoop Dogg and Tiesto at Schlitterbaun, South Pardre Island, Spring Break '11

and

Afrojack and Far East Movement at Schlitterbaun, SPI, Easter weekend '11

I've got tix for the Electric Daisy Carnival in Dallas, TX
and hopefully another U2 show, maybe in Nashville or Pittsburgh
 
I heard the Schlitterbahn in Padre is like the sexually abused, freckled foster child of the one in New Braunfels.
 
Saw the Cars the other night in Los Angeles...It was a show for us old farts. Started at 8:20pm over before 10:00pm

lol it is and I really dont understand why they throw concerts there. The Tiesto and Snoop Dogg shows were great music wise but the stage and rigging were absolute horrible. Too small IMO

And for the Afrojack/Far East Movement show, the decided to build the stage towards the back side of the park where it was nothing but sand, dirt, and gravel so you can imagine the sandstorms brewing when all the chicks were doing they're shitty dancing

I saw a band last night.

I think they have a future. :wink:
 
Bon Iver
Joe Purdy
Mumford and Sons
U2

that is my summer. then to end it I will be at the Outside Lands music festival in San Fran and will see Muse and Arcade Fire again and a couple of other cool bands.

Despite knowing that Outside Lands is not a possibility for me, I still can't help thinking about potential ways to make it work. :reject:
