Sub Pop 20th - Flight of the Conchords, Fleet Foxes
Lollapalooza
Radiohead - White River
Bumbershoot
My Morning Jacket - Mccaw Hall
June: STP (Maybe, I haven't bought tix yet, but considering weilands a ticking time bomb to self destruction, I don't know if I want to risk the money and gamble on weather he will be sober or a train wreck. Had I been at that New Jersey show, I would have been so pissed. So did they end up playing like a 30-45 minute show or did they go over curfew big time?
August: Toadies, I had Tom Petty tickets, but I am going to toadies since they have a new album out. I do love Tom Petty and the heart breakers though, a great live show too. Why did both shows have to be on the same night sign?.... :(
EV Solo: 7/11/11 11/12/12 11/13/12
NIN in September....not shit going on in Utah...it's a shame.
I would go see STP...but it's on June 11th, which is the day I leave for FL to see PJ...(PJ is worth it
AND, I'd like to go to Red Rocks in Colorado and see My Morning Jacket and The Black Keys. That would be amazing because of the bands for one, and also because it's fucking Red Rocks and I have ALWAYS wanted to see a show there ever since I bought Incubus's DVD.
*sigh*....

Nice to see a Saul Williams fan here. Personally, I'm a huge fan of his poetry and actually got to meet him last August backstage before he performed at my school. He looked so nervous while getting ready to perform. My friends tried to get me to talk to him but I only said "hi" when he walked by because I didn't want to throw him off his game.

Yes his shows were awesome! I got into him because of NIN and Trent bringing attention to him, and discovered I liked Saul's work. We saw him in these tiny clubs in Montreal and Toronto with CX Kidtronik. I was delighted to see he'll be at Lolla, and after NIN, he's the artist I most want to see there. I haven't seen a solo show with just poetry - the ones I saw were music. How nice that he performed at your school.

Not a bad festival for a little government town!
I'll catch a bunch of local acts and bar acts, but not too many nationally touring bands.
June: Pearl Jam (D.C.), Modest Mouse (Rostraver, PA)
August: New American Music Union Festival w/Bob Dylan, the Roots, the Black Keys, Spoon, the Raconteurs, and others (Pittsburgh, PA).
That's about it for now. I'm going to try to catch Petty in Pittsburgh this upcoming Tuesday. I saw DMB last week, and the Yonder Mountain String Band tonight, but other than that, this is pretty much it.
Still a good summer, though.
