    Recent or Upcoming Concerts

    I've been a bit of a music slut lately...bought a ton of new music (mostly used vinyl at least) and have been seeing/will be seeing some pretty good live music. Anyone else unabashedly loose about their aural pleasuring in these tough times?
    Recent-ish shows:
    Wovenhand
    Deerhunter w/ Times New Viking
    No Age
    Wire (& they were excellent)
    Antony and the Johnsons (incredible!...see 'em if you can on their current tour)
    P.O.S. - great new album out, 'Never Better'
    Dirty Projectors (tomorrow night at the Walker)
    Soon: (tix in hand)
    Andrew Bird (April)
    Animal Collective @ 1st Ave. (May)
    Tallest Man On Earth (April)...great songwriter...
    Wavves (April)
    Neko Case w/ Crooked Fingers (April)

    what's on your list?

    Andrew Bird in April
    Coldplay in July.

    The summer concert announcements are just starting though, so I expect to add a couple more shows to my short list over the next few months.

    Had tickets for Les Dudek but it was cancelled for some reason and the reschedule has not taken place. Considering Keith Emerson in the summer and whenever Victor Wooten comes back this year, I'll be there.

    Yeah, toss me on the "seeing Andrew Bird in April" pile. At the Chicago Civic Opera House...should be interesting.

    I saw Disturbed in January & am going to pick up No Doubt/Paramore tickets tomorrow.

    Not alot of acts come this way. So travel may be required to get to some other concerts I'd like to.
    Don't you like it on the sly? Don't you like it till it hurts? Have I been on your mind? What's a voice without a song?

    I went and saw The Australian Pink Floyd and Yes last fall, and I want to see Morrissey, Todd Rundgren, and I see DEVO is playing in Dallas in a few weeks, are they touring? I wish - they were one of the best bands I ever saw. Looks like Ian Andreson is doing some acoustic gigs stateside as well soon.

    Neko is touring with Crooked Finers? Dang.

    I just saw that Shearwater is opening for her in Austin at the end of this month, and was hoping they would when I see her on April 10th, but I can't find anything on her website or the venue's (The Keswick) that names the opener. Shearwater would make it doubly sweet.

    I call my bathroom Jim instead of John so I can tell people that I go to the Jim first thing every morning.

    If you say the word 'gullible' very slowly it sounds just like oranges.

    I should double check that but I think it's Crooked Fingers.
    Missed a chance to see Shearwater a bit over a year ago at a tiny bar...bummer.

    I looked on the Shearwater web site for you. They list the show in Austin w/Neko Case on March 31, and then no other shows listed until May. Looks like you're out of luck my friend.

    I should have thought of that.

    Thanks for the semi-bad news. Ha!

    Just got my tickets for Keith Emerson on June 6th at a little 645 seat theater. Couple other good shows at the Colonial Theater in Pheonixville, PA including Leo Kottke and Dicky Betts..

    Barry just played the Keith Emerson Band CD for me earlier today. Not under the best listening circumstances, but it sounded quite good from what I heard.
