I had lots of fun at all of them, though. Got three more to go before the year is out.

Saw Paul Dempsey (lead singer of Something for Kate) do his all covers karaoke show tonight.

The dude has such an amazing voice. And just him and his guitar on stage was amazing. And local girl Carla Geneve as support was spot on too.

Goes to show with enough talent a full band isn't always required. So good.

I haven't really been able to process or articulate seeing Brandi Carlile this past Friday the 13th.

We went with friends; all of us huge Brandi fans. But it was the firs show I'd ever attended with other people who were as (or maybe even more) excited to see the artist. I won't belabor it, but it was a truly lifechanging event. She was incredible. Her band was incredible. The setlist seemed designed for me! She covered Alanis. It was a special, special night and I hope I'm never so old that I forget how meaningful it was.

Happy for you!

which Alanis song did she played?

Uninvited

Just came back from Lollapalooza, had fun !

Djo was good! Steve Harrington sure know how to make some fun pop and rock.

Lorde was amazing!! Best show i saw from her , and it was the fifth one? This tour is really something and she is at the top of her game as a performer.

Tyler The Creator was meh. He was alone no band and it kinda feels like karaoke. Still some good moments, dude is talented. Better than Drake for sure !!

Teen Mortgage were really good, tonight

!!! One of my favorite bands in the world right now

fuckin MCLUSKY yessssssssssssss great show

I took my oldest son (18) to see Cass McCombs last night. It was his first concert, and he loved it.

Awesome!!

The venue I went to last night was burning incense (FUCK OFF) and even after showering I swear I can still smell that shit

José González last night.

saw flea and his honore band last night. It was very different, and very good. obviously it was jazz-centric and mostly low key, but there were moments where flea played more aggressively on the bass that his inner chili peppers persona started to show. it was very much a relaxing, yet entertaining show.

flea mentioned that he'd played thousands of shows in his life, but he's never been as nervous as he was last night. aside from one-off songs here and there, it was the band's first concert ever. flea was chatty, and really down to earth (acknowledged that the album was the most vulnerable he's been music wise). 7.5/10
