    Sadly my list was pretty small this year:

    The Tragically Hip- Marrymore Park, Seattle
    The Weakerthans- MacEwan Hall, Calgary
    Wintersleep- The Warehouse, Calgary


    I'm hoping to attend at least a couple more shows before the end of the year, and my New Years resolution for '08 is to beef up my concert resume.
    "I try my best to chug, stomp, weep, whisper, moan, wheeze, scat, blurt, rage, whine, and seduce. With my voice I can sound like a girl, the boogieman, a Theremin, a cherry bomb, a clown, a doctor, a murderer. I can be tribal. Ironic. Or disturbed. My voice is really my instrument."

    -Tom Waits

    Wow, I don't think I could go a year without seeing a show... it's hard to go from one month of seeing 2-3 shows, then that dry spell of not seeing another show until 2 months later.

    Haha, it's funny... I'm starting the year off with Band of Horses in January as well.
    If I could, think I would give in.
