I hate holiday music. Our office pipes in 106.7 fm which is the lite fm station and they play non stop christmas music from Now until new years eve!!!!

cool..coldasgasoline and I were having a Mark Olson discussion in the live tonight thread. I saw the concerts in the Studio show in NJ I got to spend about 15 minutes talking with Mark in someones living room. The show takes place at a house with a potluck dinner. He is an odd but passionate guy. He was talking in depth about his trip to Armenia, spending time on an oil rig in Norway...(His significant others father works for Conoco Phillips), His suburu, and Health Care...the show was interesting too. Glad you had fun!

Thanks for the recap. I agree it was an interesting experience!

How was it?! Yeah an extra nice treat!

Went to the show last night at the Beacon based on this post so thanks A Heart I Know By Heart. Since I am a fair weathered CCR fan I figured the show was out of my price range but I was tempted with that setlist. Low and behold 6pm night of show a ticket for $39 total popped up on stub hub and I pulled the trigger. Great, long show and he sounded awesome! Hard to believe he is 68 years old and still has that voice!

So saw MBV last night..good show but bad vocal mix. On a related note got to meet Patti Smith who was watching the show 5 ft away from me.

My Bloody Valentine

Nice... Reason I say louris wasn't as sentimental is he kept talking about starting over and not being Americana music when I last saw him. I hear last night louris played two hours and most of sound of lies! Nice! Must have been great with Karen.

Good show...pretty good setlist. He played People on This Place On Everyside and King of Kings which I love. Also played Clouds, Sister Cry, Two Angels, Blue and Over My Shoulder. On this tour he is playing with his Significant other. So it is just him on guitar and her on Bongos and other various instruments. Some of his solo songs were pretty odd but it was a good evening of entertainment. Olson is a real nature sentimental type who reminised about old times def a different show then Louris. I got to talk with him for a few minutes about health care, oil rigs, Norway and cars (all of which

Ha ha we should bring our two shows together!

Just bought a ticket this morning for Mark Olson concerts in the Studio. Show at someones house seats 50 with a potluck dinner after.

Thanks for the reviews...

cool..did they play Thorn hoping to hear that when I see them..

How was it and how loud was it?

GREAT STORY!!

I was negative 7 I still listen to it often...prob my second fav Springsteen album.

Great album! Good artciels... http://www.backstreets.com/news.html

Saw them once before..already packed the ear plugs

At this rate it'll be summer 2015...I will try and pick something carefully...maybe I can align it with my 35th birthday

Ha I can see that happening. I have been going to concerts in NYC since 1995. I keep a log too... I'm embarrassed to say I am up to about 925 concerts... Going to have a huge celebration though for my 1000 and will but anyone of my friends who want to join me a ticket for that show as a celebration

Festival I count as one show.. Each tickets show would be one show I guess.. The question for you specifically is how many full shows do you see a year

I live near NYC there are good shows almost every night of the year..90% of the shows I go to are under $30...I am actually looking forward to the end of the year as I only have 3 shows left and I will hopefully get some more sleep.. Seeing My Bloody Valentine next week

I usually average between 50-80 shows a year..This year im in the 50 range. Sometimes it is great, most of the time I say I am getting to old to keep going at this pace but when I don't attemd a show I want to go to I usually end up regretting missing the show..vicous cycle for this live music junkie who has to get up at 6am for work

Well the dork in me is very excited to be seeing They Might Be Giants performing their first album live tomorrow!
