i like jento's list. lucero and jason isbell (formerly of Drive-By Truckers) are on my to-see. as well as JJ Grey from Sigma's list.

i saw KOL again, earlier this year at the Palace Theatre in Louisville.

they're good, but i don't think i'll catch them this time around. i saw them at City Hall in Nashville once, and they rocked. i like them in a medium/small venue.

Last weekend at the Forecastle Festival in Louisville, I got to interview a ton of bands and it was awesome...I got to sit down and talk with Mark from Devo, Wayne from Flaming Lips, John from Widespread Panic, Ben from Lucero, the guys from Cake, Modern English, Civil Twilight, Sara Watkins (from Nickel Creek), Against Me, Scott Miller, Joe Purdy and about 22 more bands...it was awesome. If you can ever make it to Forecastle...it's a festival worth going to. Smaller crowds but bigger acts mean you can actually see a lot of music with a decent spot

How was Devo? I wanted to see them at Coachella but they were stuck in Europe because of that volcano.

The interview was awesome. Mark wore a mustache I gave him for the video. Regarding the show, it sounded mostly good, but I didn't get to see but about 1.5 songs because of the interviews I was conducting (the downside to doing these). They had several changes and were incredibly energetic from the portions I saw though.

Hey, I'll be in Louisville for about a week in Sept, any suggestions on cool bars to check out?

I've been to 199 concerts, so I won't list them all, but my 200th show will be the B-52s next month!

Band I've seen most is U2 -- 23 times with 5 more (rescheduled) shows ramped up for next year. woohoo!
