Best of 2008-Concert Moments (Part 2)

'The Fool'
WYEP Summer Music Festival
Friday June 27th, 2008
Schenley Plaza
Oakland
Probably my most enjoyable concert of the year. Besides being free, the boys came out of the gate rockin' and never stopped. I thought I wouldn't like the relocation of the fest to Oakland from the Northside but it was perfect.

'Building A Boat'
Thursday October 9, 2008
Southside
CRIMINALLY underrated band that played a smoking set to six people? Damn, shame.


'Save It For Rainy Day'
Gary Louris
Saturday March 29, 2008
WYEP Studios
Southside
One of my favorite Jayhawks songs. I would have seen his show later that night (with Vetiver opening and backing him up!) but I had prior commitments.



'Killer Of The One'
Good Night, States
Thursday October 16, 2008
WYEP Third Thursdays
Southside
My first time seeing this band. They are from Pittsburgh. They play great, great original music. They are cool as hell people. 'Nuff said, check them out. I am hoping to catch them tonight as a matter of fact, you should too.
