She was there too Came out and did her two hits "Lookout Weekend" and "When I Hear Music".

I saw Roger Waters last week, and it was definitely the best large-venue show I've ever seen; perfect sound, great playing and amazing visuals. It could have perhaps been a touch louder, but otherwise I couldn't have asked for a finer performance.

I'm going to a Dweezil Zappa show next week, which isn't something I'd generally go see, but a friend needed someone to tag along. He's on a "Zappa plays Zappa" tour where he's doing an evening of his dad's music. I have no idea what to expect - I don't know what songs he's performing, or with whom he's playing. Apparently Dweezil's a fairly estimable guitarist, so maybe I'll be in for something great - or maybe it'll be an absolute travesty.

The Cure and Bloc Party are coming to my city on the same weekend in september! woo hoo!

you go..you!! wow!

CHIC0 said:

It's not exactly what it looks like. I work in promotion for some of these bands and I'm friends with some of the others. If I didn't work in the industry I'd never be able to see so many shows.

PapaSmurf said:

still...most people see that many in a couple years or so.

CHIC0 said:

Yeah, it's a good way to make a living.

going to see The Police on 7/31.....can't wait...hopefully Kanye West won't show up
