The gigs, 2010 Options

[+Ed+]

Nearly half a year is gone. But whom have you already seen and whom will you see in the coming months?

I must admit, that so far it has benn the beiggest concert-year in my life. I mean, if to count the well-known performers.

So far I have seen:

February - Depeche Mode, Ian Brown
May - Recoil

and it DOES count that previously I could only see 1 good gig in 3 years and both times it was Depeche, as hardly other band interesting to me visits Russia.

Still am thinking of seeing UNKLE in couple of weeks.

What bout the others?

I saw John Mayer and Michael Franti in March and Phoenix a couple weeks ago.
I will see Passion Pit next month (June) and John Mayer/Keith Urban and The Avett Brothers in August.

Say what you will about John Mayer, but he is definitely a great blues guitarist! I am excited about the show in August since JM and Keith Urban are co-headlining at The Gorge in Washington state.

Damn right. Though he's even better when David Ryan Harris is playing with him.
