    It must be awesome living on the east coast.
    Definitely spoiled up here. But I'm dying to see Pearl Jam in Nashville so you've got me beat there. Hoping to make a trip there if they stop there on the next tour. :smiley:

    Highlights including last December, since this year's hasn't been completed yet:

    * Neko Case at Apollo Theater, NYC - Dec. 2015.
    * Spring Standards - King Killer Studios Brooklyn, & Boxing Day show at Arden Gild Hall, Delaware - Dec. 2015
    * Wilco - 3x but I guess I'll go with King's Theater Brooklyn 2/5/16 as the best, if only because it was my first time in that awesome venue.
    * The Who - March 14 Philly - might be my last time seeing them, barring me attending any other Desert Trip-like festivals.
    * Lucius - 4x in 2016. Daryl's House in Pawling NY June 24 was my favorite. Great to still be able to see them in tiny venues from time to time.
    * Pearl Jam - 4x including 2 great MSG shows, but I'll pick Columbia SC as my favorite. They were all really and equally great though.
    * Rhett Miller - June 20 City Winery NYC. He performed a solo acoustic Wreck Your Life in its entirety (minus the Murry song)
    * Joseph Arthur - August 15 City Winery NYC. Love the new album "The Family."
    * Temple of the Dog - MSG November 7. Once in a lifetime show?
    * Drive-By Truckers - Union Transfer Philly November 9 - Nobody I'd rather have listened to the night after the election.
    * Los Lobos & Mavis Staples - November 20, Music Hall, Tarrytown, NY - I fell off the LL bandwagon in the last 2-3 years, but this hometown (for me) show was rejuvenating.

    2017 is shaping up to be another good year, I've already bought tickets to a bunch of shows!

    1. Radiohead - 10/7 ACL
    2. The Church - 4/8 Dallas
    3. Pearl Jam - 4/16 Greenville
    4. Pearl Jam - 4/18 Hampton
    5. Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds - 7/2 Nashville
    6. Collective Soul - 9/7 Allen
    7. Robert Plant - 3/18 Midland
    8. The Toadies - 8/14 Waco
    9. Vaden Todd Lewis - 7/21 Dallas

    Morrissey would be on the list but he decided to cancel his tour the night before the Dallas show, only to suddenly reschedule it for less than a month later. I naively bought tickets for the rescheduled date not expecting it to get cancelled again. I've learned my lesson. The shows that actually did happen this year were all awesome though. 2-4 switch depending on my mood.

    Just saw Clarke Jr with his "intimate" show and he only played for 1 hr and 10 minutes. That was actually a shorter show than the Beastie Boys show I saw in Santa Barbara, never thought that would be broken...

    Great show but of course I wanted more...
