Its not often you can say you'll have seen all of your favorite bands live in one year ... next Thursday at the ABC will be another step toward making 2005 perfect I've never seen Mogwai live before This year has also seen / will see me witnessing The Wedding Present, The Fall, Pixies, Bright Eyes and Interpol. ... and only August !

so far this year i've seen: qotsa x2 throw rag x2 slint interpol x2 mono echo & the bunnymen x2 kraftwerk x2 pixies gang of four dinosaur jr x2 magik markers x2 bardo pond x2 do make say think modest mouse camper van beethoven bloc party
no mogwai this year, however.. and i don't think that i'll have the opportunity to this year (it will be the first year since 2000 that i won't attend a mogwai show). i don't think they're planning on playing on the east coast of the US this year.

I like this thread. Here's my list so far:
Boredoms Jim O'Rourke SIANspheric4 The Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra and Tra-La-La Band Hella Slint (five times) Lightning Bolt Superwolf Cat Power GZA/Genius Behold... The Arctopus Converge Holy Smokes
I'm pretty sure that's all I've been able to make this year. My money situation is bad right now so I'm not able to afford as many shows as I usually like to see. There are plenty more (for example, Merzbow next month) coming up. It really has been perfect so far, though. I never thought I'd see SIANspheric4 or Boredoms again. Plus, I was lucky enough to catch the first ever U.S. Silver Mt. Zion show last night. All of these shows within a few months of each other.. I love it.
