Your 2008 concert calendar

[BonoIsMyMuse]

Oh my god.

And that's just the first night. The general reaction over at Via Chicago was that it ranks among the best Wilco shows ever.

We'll probably be waiting to go in next week at this time

Dear gawd.

Hope they don't burn themselves out in Chicago.

jose gonzalez, march 4, ATL


^and potentially the athens stars show...

i think he's going to be in asheville march 4? i think i'm going.

 

[Axver]

That's so awesome! I can't wait to see Explosions at the end of March.

I assure you, you will not be disappointed. I was in the front row, between Munaf Rayani and Michael James. Best spot to be. Munaf is just fucking NUTS.

Yep, I've seen videos of them live, where Munaf is basically rolling around on the floor, stuff like that. Do you remember the setlist? I'm keeping my fingers crossed for "Catastrophe and the Cure" with Munaf on the extra snare at the end.

R.E.M. in Amsterdam July 2

Yep, we got Catastrophe And The Cure - that was just awesome with Munaf on the snare. Our set was:

1. First Breath After Coma
2. Welcome, Ghosts
3. Greet Death
4. Your Hand In Mine
5. Memorial
6. The Moon Is Down
7. Catastrophe And The Cure
8. The Only Moment We Were Alone

They played for about 80 minutes. Pretty much the ideal setlist for me right there.

That really is a perfect set! Greet Death (a favorite of mine), Your Hand in Mine (which they apparently don't play that often), Catastrophe and the Cure...just wow.

The Police (again!)with Elvis Costello - August 4th

 

[BonoIsMyMuse]

I think I'm going to sell my ticket for Bruce Springsteen in Rochester to put toward a trip to Chicago to see Nels Cline's jazz trio in June

 

[intedomine]

Interpol last night

Amazing gig, how can folk say this band has a crap live show...?

 

[Pop Artist]

Slow start to the year for me...I have no shows yet.

But, I think it will pick up soon. I've got Radiohead penciled in...more than once (New York and a city TBD on the leg NY isn't on), and in dark pencil. This All Points West festival (which may turn out to be Radiohead's "NYC" show) is exciting me greatly, I'm hoping REM goes out on tour, even if the new album sucks, and I see that The Verve is playing Coachella...I hope they have some other U.S. gigs besides that!

Well, well, well...a month later and all of the above is coming together.

March 10 & 12 - my obscure musical love in Toronto
April 29 - The Verve are coming! The Verve are coming! (pending ticket)
May 8 - Radiohead in Atlanta!
June 14 - R.E.M. (pending ticket)
August 9 and/or 8 - All Points West/Radiohead - The announced line-up besides Radiohead is greatly disappointing but I cannot miss the boys locally. (pending ticket)

Would have liked to have seen The Police again with Elvis Costello in what may possibly be The Police's last show ever at Jones Beach, but I'm going broke with all these shows on sale (except for REM) in the same month so I had to make the hard choice to pass it up. The ticket price and the fact that they left me a little unsatisfied when I saw them in August were the deciding factors... As for the rest, thank goodness for tax refunds...
