I can’t put 10 in order so...


Magpie Salute- Sony Hall- NYC

I need to watch these guys.

Sadly I am in Europe  

But thank you!!

I think they just wrapped up their European tour & are headed to Japan next.
We're doing the show in Cincinnati on Jan 27th!!

Thanks god, Brothers come almost every year to Basque Country and hopefully we could check this band out.

I really like the new album and I desire to watch the band performing it.

High water 2 coming in the first half of 2019

Really hoping to hear a couple of new songs from High Water 2 at their show in Cincinnati at the end of January...these guys are just INCREDIBLE live!!

Wow. Just counted and have only been to five this year. As opposed to spending 3k on gigs year. Would be PJ in Padova, PJ at Fenway 2, Flight of the Conchords in Dublin, Shihad in Wellington and PJ in Milan best to worst. Though moving hemispheres and spending three months travelling the Americas is a pretty good alternative as travel is my first love.

I don’t think I even came close to 10 shows in 2018, was a busy year with planning our wedding, getting married at Graceland, and trying to save up money for it all. We were going to try for the Fenway shows too but had to be responsible adults and not blow more money, lol.

In order of how I saw them since I don’t want to rank them:

Lana Del Rey - Lust For Life Tour - Chicago
American Nightmare/No Warning - Chicago
Bush - Rock Island
Pearl Jam - Wrigley Field N1
Pearl Jam - Wrigley Field N2
Gorilla Biscuits/Modern Life Is War/True Love - Chicago
