Ooh gosh!! I would've loved to go see Wolfmother last week but have uni exams!! I'd love to see Franz Ferdinand when they come down here in January...

I'm going to see feeder pretty soon. The last band i saw were Mcfly. Best band ive seen thisa year would have to be Coldplay or the Killers.

 

[Browneyes]

Last gig i went to was Chuck Berry! Can you believe it?! The man is almost 80 but he can still sing "it was a teenage wedding and the old folks wished them well... you never can tell" and "johnny b good" - but his guitar playing was not good, i guess because of old fingers! Amazing to see a legend though, who inspired so many.. Stones, Beatles, everyone.

In the spring I'm going to a Jack Johnson concert, but before that i dunno..

Dream Concerts:

Smiths reunion concert
using a time machine to see David Bowie as Ziggy Stardust
Tom Waits (he never comes to Austin)
Mark Hollis (with strings and oboes and all)
using a time machine to see Jeff Buckley before he died
using a time machine to see Duke Ellington at Newport in 1956 (one of the greatest live shows of all time, in any genre of music)
Sigur Ros
Velvet Underground reunion (they did it once and toured Europe a bit...they need to do it again)
The Dears (I see them once a year, but it's never enough)

Someone hurry up and invent a time machine so I can cross some of these off my list.

And trust me, a time machine will be invented long before the Smiths ever reunite. "When the Smiths reunite" is my own way of saying "when hell freezes over".

would love to see tom waits...
sigur ros i hear is so amazing it's almost religious...
smiths reunion... that is such a beautiful idea, don't you think?

still can't get over radiohead from two years ago... it was breathtaking.
