  1. FINALLY saw Elvis Costello; saw him at the sold out Chicago Theater . He's been the one musician I've always wanted to see, but never had the chance to. What a great performer. He performed solo, but still tore the roof off the place. Great gig.
  2. saw one of Simply Red's farewell gigs last week, say what you want about Hucknall, but he puts on a phenominal show.
  3. Saw The Black Keys on NYE in Chicago. one of the best NYE i've had.


  4. im seeing them at a festival in a months time, what were they like?
  5. Saw Trippin' Billies, a nationally (USA) renowned Dave Matthews Band tribute, on New Years Day. My cousin was mixing the sound at the venue that night, took me up on the House of Blues stage after the show to steal setlists, meet the band, etc. Great night.
  6. A DMB tribute band on the New Year's Day? That's great, Matt!


    I'm probably going to attend the Roger Water: The Wall Live concert on March 26th, I just need to get some friends persuaded that it'll be great
