18 February: Roger Waters, MMRDA Grounds, Mumbai (a great show and very nice to see so many Indians in to it)
10 March: The Waterboys, Vredenburg, Utrecht (again an excellent concert, even though it wasn't as good as the one last year. But from the first song on the band was ON!)
25 March: Shakira, MMRDA Grounds, Mumbai ( although the concert was quite short. Had a great time nonetheless.)
8 June: The Scene, Paradiso, Amsterdam (a bit of a nostalgia fest, but good to see the band back together again)
20 June: Lou Reed, Heineken Music Hall, Amsterdam (he performed Berlin in its entirety and after 35 years it's still very compelling)
23 June: The Frames, Tivoli, Utrecht (amazing and very intense )
28 July: Spinvis, De Parade, Utrecht (intimate and quite intrigueing)
11 August: Prince, O2 Arena, London (excellent concert, finally saw him live!)
17 to 19 August: Lowlands Festival, Biddinghuizen (again a good festival, many good performances by Basement Jaxx, Goose, LCD Soundsystem, etc.)
Concerts in the future:
16 October: Crowded House, Carré, Amsterdam
29 November: Zita Swoon, Tivoli, Utrecht

16 October: Crowded House, Carré, Amsterdam (amazing show, finally saw them live )
29 November: Zita Swoon, Tivoli, Utrecht (good show, slightly ruined by the girls behind us chatting )
1 December: Bruce Springsteen, Gelredome, Arnhem (it's Bruce, 'nuff said. Longer review in my journal)
Maybe (don't know yet whether I can make it or not):
16 December: Johan (and some others), Tivoli, Utrecht
As it is near the end of the year, I'll try to list the best concerts I went to. Only problem is, there are so many of them. But the best of the best are probably Lou Reed, The Frames, Prince and Crowded House.
Hopefully 2008 will be just as good!
