Least favorite/most disappointing
album?
I was so disappointed by Daft Punk Random Access Memories. I probably should add their 2001 release Discovery to my most listened to.

First concert attended?
Rolling Stones at Three Rivers Stadium 1994. I was pretty young, my parents took me and a friend. Probably the first time I'd ever smelled weed (I should hope).

Last concert?
If DJ sets count I went to LTJ Bukem last week at Hot Mass. The last band I saw would be Anjroy who played my EP release the week prior to.

Favorite concert ever?
A Japanese artist, Cornelius on his ‘Point’ tour. I saw him in Boston after only recently becoming familiar with his music and it was a mind blowing experience. Radiohead on their ‘Amnesiac’ tour would be a close second.

Least favorite concert?
I saw an early Washed Out show that was all around pretty bad. In his defense I've heard he has stepped it up a bit since.

Thanks, Joe. I was at that Stones show. That ended up being the last time I saw them. Was tired of the whole bombast of a stadium show and have avoided going to see bands in huge venues like that.
