Oh it's gonna be such a great year for concerts... I managed to get me a ticket for the Rolling Stones this morning :) to put alongside my ticket for The Who... on top of the small matter of a couple of Pearl Jam concerts I'll be attending :)

So... where's everyone else going? :)
The Astoria??? Orgazmic!
Verona??? it's all surmountable
Dublin 23.08.06 "The beauty of Ireland, right there!"
Wembley? We all believe!
Copenhagen?? your light made us stars
Chicago 07? And love
What a different life
Had I not found this love with you

    Beavis : Is this Pearl Jam?
    Butt-head: This guy makes faces like Eddie Vedder.
    Beavis: No, Eddie Vedder makes faces like this guy.
    Butt-head: I heard these guys, like, came first and Pearl Jam ripped them off.
    Beavis: No, Pearl Jam came first.
    Butt-head: Well, they both suck.

    I hope to see Pearl Jam if they'll announce some U.S. dates.

    I would have liked to see Tool, but they aren't coming anywhere very close to me.

    I've already seen BB King.

    Other than that, I'm not sure.
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    unfortunately, right now I won't be seeing any bands this year.....no band that I'm interested in is coming close to where I live and I need to save some money at the time so travelling very far is out of the question

    if some bands I like would come within a reasonable driving distance, I would be going to more shows....

    The only thing I have tickets to so far is DMB.

    There's about a 95% chance I'll go see the Black Angels on Monday.

    Ben Harper is coming here in June, with The Nightwatchman opening, and there's no force on earth that will prevent me from being there.

    As soon as the White Stripes announce a tour, I'll be buying tix for that too.

    Since it doesn't look like PJ will be touring the U.S., that could be it for me.
