How was House of pain? I saw Everlast at a festival in May. He was good, No House of Pain stuff though. Although HOP had just played a show a month earlier. that's a pretty nice run of shows you got to see too.

I love looking at people's lists each year. I won't lie, I do get jealous though as I scroll through the thread

I was unemployed and broke all year, so could not pay for any concerts, of course. However, one of my girlfriends in Atlanta was very kind and treated me to Bon Jovi. It was a great show, and I was grateful for the opportunity to go.

Man... I can't remember dates (and I keep maybe a third of my stubs)

Here's what I remember:

Coheed & Cambria, CAKE (in Chicago and Mesa), Primus, Steely Dan, Jason Mraz, Airborne Toxic Event, The Black Keys (with Florence and the Machine & Cage the Elephant), Foo Fighters, Japandroids (!!), and of course - the pearl of the year - Pearl Jam in Vancouver.

Not a bad year...
