Dude, I drink cups of ambition all day long from nine to five.

I LOVE her.

mine is sept 5th.

[trackaghost]

I'm going to see:

Cat Power
Okkervil River
Steve Earle
The Gutter Twins (Mark Lanegan & Greg Dulli)
Neil Young (four times!)
The Breeders
Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band
Neil Diamond
My Bloody Valentine

I've heard Willie Nelson is coming to London in May and I really want to see him too. I can't make up my mind about seeing Dolly.

[kathy1]

how can you afford to go to all those concerts?

[trackaghost]

Well, with the exception of the bigger concerts like Springsteen and Diamond, most aren't that expensive. The ticket for Okkervil River was £10 and Cat Power was £15 for example. I'd spend more than that on a night out, plus I've always gone to lots of concerts.

Cool!

Okkervil river's latest album just ranked as the best of the year in my book! I bought it just before X-mas and that thing didn't leave the player!

I plan to see Young too. Gutter Twins and Band Of Horses. Okkervil River and Patrick Watson. I already saw Bruce, and I'm gonna follow Lindsey on a big part
of his European No One Knows My Name-Tour, just after his sametitled-doublealbum came out in September.

Grace Potter & the Nocturnals
Big Sam's Funky Nation
Velvet Revolver

The Go-Gos

March

SXSW - Gosh, only 1100 bands in 4 days. Of course, I won't see all of them...Lou Reed is this year's keynote speaker, REM and My Morning Jacket have just been confirmed.

I loved The Stage Names too. Have you heard the acoustic version?

I saw Bruce just before Christmas - amazing! That's why I'm going again in a few months. I saw Band Of Horses last year and they were great. The best beard I've seen in rock in a long time

I'll be following Lindsey around on his tour too. I've heard he's only playing tiny venues, all 1000 capacity or less! It's gonna be f**king awesome!
