This year will be a little less than previous, and I guess I'll include those that I took/take my kids to (that I wouldn't go to otherwise)
Pearl Jam - 4 shows in the Northeast (Hartford, Buffalo, and the 2 MSG)
The Magic Flute (at the Met!)
Lollapalooza- looking forward to lots of bands there
AFI/Green Day - Montreal with my kid and her friend
Jonas Brothers - Montreal with my kid and her friend
I'm quite tempted to go see Eminem and Jay-Z if possible.
I think I'm just going to try to save some $$ this year - my business income is down and there aren't too many out there I'm dying to see besides what I'm going to or have been to.

Me too, but the tickets went on sale this morning and the first I was aware of it was when I got the email from Ticketmaster this morning. I'm afraid it will be sold out by the time I will be able to swing purchasing the tickets. Maybe not though. God I would love to see that
