With PJ and some others, my wallet is going to be hurting from taking time off work in october. Wondering what acts people on here insist on seeing at least once every time they tour. Lets assume they are coming within a 3 hour drive radius of your home. I think this is it for me...three of them decided to schedule my local shows within a week of each other this year which is killing me

My Morning Jacket/ Jim James
Pearl Jam
Wilco
of Montreal
Bright Eyes
Neko Case
Arcade Fire

    Oh, and after seeing them for the first time a few months ago, Tame Impala is only behind PJ on my list of "must sees". Seeing them just a few weeks before seeing PJ this fall.

    Pearl Jam and The Frames have been the only 2 bands I've consistently felt this way about for 18 yrs, and Radiohead for 12 yrs. I have added Airborne Toxic Event if they're right in my town (not driving 3 hrs to see them even though they're great). And now RNDM!
