    I really did not see a lot of shows this year. With pricing and oldness I am just not as motivated as I once was. I think these are all of the shows I saw this past year, which is bizarre.

    LaRussell
    Taylor Hunnicut

    I only saw two concerts this year:

    The Who at Jones Beach Theater was a fine show, but nothing too extraordinary. 

    Luke Spiller at Le Poisson Rouge in NYC, though, was nothing less than magical. His solo album that he put out this year is simply enchanting.
