i am looking forward to the 2017 lineup... tbh, i think that the 2015 one was the weakest of the four so far.

sorry, you are correct. I was thinking of the RHCP vesion of "Higher Ground." i first heard "Alone Again Or" via The Damned, not Love. -
Ultimate Painting were excellent last night. Their last show is at Bowery tonight, so any NYC-ers who dig the Velvets (think Rock and Roll instead of Black Angel Death Song) should definitely make the trip. so worth it.

Wire is one of the best bands. I think i heard Thelonious Monster's "For My Lover" before the Tracy Chapman version. also, Husker Du's version of "Sunshine Superman" before Donovan's. -

"These Days" came to me first via Barbara Manning, then Jackson Browne and then Nico. She also covered "Soul of Patrick Lee" from John Cale, whose version I'd not heard. REM has a bunch... in addition to Pale Blue Eyes, Strange (from Wire) and "Academy Fight Song" by Burma. I first became aware of Chrome via the Jesus Lizard, with their 7" called Chrome (basically "TV as Eyes" and "Abstract Nympho" my brother had a Nugent record where he covered "I Want To Tell You," before i'd heard teh Beatles vesion. tons more i am sure. put down the The Clash for "Police And Thieves" too. -
Bands you saw early on who became big?

i don't like them, but i shot Vampire Weekend in 2008 at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. I think the room holds about 300-400. -
not seeing a band live, but last night i saw _One More Time With Feeling_, the incredibly emotive documentary about Nick Cave making his latest record in the wake of his oldest son's tragic death.

Favorite concerts you saw this year?
tinnitus photography replied to remphish1's topic in Someone Else's Song
Understandable. I guess this is Torche's last tour, according to Facebook posts I've seen from Steve Brooks. Bummer. -

I probably should have gone to the Lydia Loveless and Jonathan Richman shows. You should totally go see Torche and Red Fang this Sunday! -

i am actually pulling together a mental list right now. i've seen about 100 bands and at least four festivals, so while it's not as many as I usually see, it's still a lot. i'll get around to posting around the xmas break. -
