Is it just me, or is it sad that a I have a stack of tickets this big at home and they still don't represent even a fraction of the shows I'd like to see this spring and summer?
I wanted to see the pile of tickets, and I'm sure other people do, too. They should be like me and change their backslashes to forward slashes, a la:

Summerstage should be good times this year.

Posted by: Brad on April 21, 2003 11:10 AMLooking at your Village Voice, I see a bunch of stuff in NYC this week. A quick cull....of shows that could make me hop a flight:
Everclear - maybe not your cuppa, but that in itself is a reason to see them. Great live.
Throwing Muses - Tanya, oh Tanya.
Yo La Tengo - always fantastic, their latest CD is totally sweet.
Cheap Trick - if you've never seen em...fix that!
Brian Auger's Oblivion - retro!
Jim Campilongo - haven't seen him recently, but was great a couple of years back.
Lloyd Cole - without the Commotions?
Evan Dando - Yeah! go!
Deerhoof and Erase Erata - Local to bay area. Must see!! Very eclectic!
Rosie Flores ;-)
Lydia Lunch - if not Rosie, then Lydia.
Oops, I said:
>Throwing Muses - Tanya, oh Tanya.
I meant: Kristin, oh Kristin.
They're both so hot....
Posted by: deano on April 21, 2003 12:04 PMI actually think that Everclear are remarkably under-appreciated. I've not seen Trick (isn't that awful?) and am intrigued to see whether or not Evan Dando is going to implode.
Yo La is, of course, sold out. On the Muses, put me squarely in the Tanya camp (or at least when I was 18). I always try to get Orrin to tell me Tanya stories.

LOL
