It has been quite a while since I have done this. I am proud to say that I did make it through all the songs I have that start with the letter “A”. I told you I was doing this right? Wiping everything off of my I-pod and only putting on songs that start with the letter A? It was hard ya’ll. I must admit that I cheated a little.
I know I know… I have absolutely no self control. I had to cheat friends. But only for those bands I will be seeing in concert in the next few months. Thankfully I currently have over 10 concerts on the books, so that made it a little easier….
So here we go…. the game hasn’t changed at all. Shuffle all. Only skip if an artist is repeated:
- The National - Vanderlyle Crybaby Geeks (Seeing them on Thursday)
- Kate Nash - Mansion Song (November)
- She & Him - I’m Gonna Make it Better (October)
- Beach House - Used to Be (saw them with Vampire Weekend last weekend)
- Pink Floyd - Bring the Boys Back Home (December)
- Frightened Rabbit - Fast Blood (October)
- Mumford & Sons - The Cave (October)
- Best Coast - Boyfriend (October - but it is sold out)
- The Walkman - Long Time Ahead of Us (opening for The National)
- Ray LaMontagne - Barfly (next Sunday)
- David Gray - Hospital Food (next Sunday)
- Arcade Fire - Intervention (September)
- Phoenix - Everything is Everything (September)
- Calexico - Red Blooms (Opening for Arcade Fire)
- Matt & Kim - Silver Tiles (September)
Weeeeee! It is a busy few months musically.
I am already exhausted and it hasn’t even begun yet!
