Concerts - Favorite of 2016 and Looking Forward To 2017

Wife has been listening to Chelsea Wolfe over and over (cough, honey, there are other artists) and it's pretty terrific.

Saw Neko Case last fall on a clear night, outdoors at the Santa Fe Opera House. A million stars and The Voice. Have been a fan since the late 90's, but she just keeps getting better.

This interests me enormously:

Didn't we have a gazillion page rage-fest about The Shins back at HCGJ? Maybe Oscar or Frank or someone leading the charge?

Yeah? Well, I'm going to see The Shins tonight.

They're hardly even the same band as they once were. They're just Mercer and a bunch of hired help now.

I miss the older, weirder version of that band.

 
First show of 2017 booked, snagged a ticket for Bon Iver at Merriweather in May. So excited, hopefully he doesn't cancel like he did with the Euros.
 
Where are the Shins playing? Sunshine?

The band sounded great but it was a general admission sardine-fest. If the fire marshal had walked in I'm sure the whole thing would have been shut down. I couldn't take it—that sort of claustrophobia is misery for me—so we split about halfway through the show.
