2010 Concerts in Review

The Year

2010 was a pretty hectic year, what with the moving half-way across the country to start law school and all. And yet I still managed to squeeze in time for one of my favorite past times, live music, amidst all the chaos. I've include the city with the show to help my 512 friends navigate the 404 and vice versa.

2011 is warming up (get it?!) to be a pretty good year. Had to skip the Lower Dens playing here in ATL on 1/13 due to the snowstorm but thank your god that they're coming back through on 3/13 @ The Earl. Looks like the first show of the year for me will be No Age on Friday 1/21. After that, the next confirmed shows on my calendar are Godspeed You! Black Emperor on 3/22 @ 40 Watt Club and Pains of Being Pure at Heart with Twin Shadow on 4/5 @ The Earl with plenty in between.
