Anyone out there with more shows on their belt than Brendan? 25 in under three years, holy guac! Hoping to get my count up to at least 12 by the end of the summer.
1. June 15th, 2007 - Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival - Manchester, Tennessee 2. June 27th, 2008 - Ram's Head Live - Baltimore, Maryland 3. July 19th, 2008 - Pitchfork Music Festival - Chicago, Illinois 4. August 30th, 2008 - Theatre of the Living Arts - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (opening for Sonic Youth) 5. November 7th, 2008 - Terminal 5 - New York, New York 6. November 8th, 2008 - Electric Factory - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 7. March 29th, 2009 - Recher Theatre - Towson, Maryland
*COMING SOON* 8. June 6th, 2009 - 9:30 Club - Washington, D.C. 9. June 7th, 2009 - Bowery Ballroom - New York, New York
Best show I've seen was Terminal 5 night two. First time I interacted with the lovely Unified Scene, DBT's were great, and THS was fucking smokin'! Check out the flawless setlist!
“Constructive Summer” “You Gotta Dance (With Who You Came to the Dance With)” “Multitude of Casualties” “Chips Ahoy!” “Sequestered in Memphis” “One for the Cutters” “Cheyenne Sunrise” “Ask Her for Adderall” “Magazines” “Arms & Hearts” “Stevie Nix” “Massive Nights” “Party Pit” “Lord, I’m Discouraged” “Hornets! Hornets!” “Your Little Hoodrat Friend” “Most People Are DJs” “Slapped Actress” “How a Resurrection Really Feels” Encore: “First Night” “Stay Positive” “History Lesson Part II” “Ride On” (AC/DC Cover with members of Drive By Truckers) “Burnin’ For You” (Blue Oyster Cult Cover with members of Drive By Truckers) “Killer Parties” (with members of Drive By Truckers and The Loved Ones)
Why, oh why did a bootleg never surface?!

Stephanie ended her count with 42. JWD is up there too. I'd like to see his list. Ben saw a whole tour, but from the merch table. Heidi, where you at?!

To the best of my knowledge this is correct -- as those who have talked to me about this topic before can attest, I am not so great at remembering what concerts I have seen. The timeline makes sense though, because I remember in 2006 I was basically not going to concerts at all (it was a VERY BAD YEAR).
1. January 1, 2007 - NorthSix - Brooklyn, NY 2. May 12, 2007 - Abbey Bar - Harrisburg, PA 3. August 9, 2007 - Prospect Park - Brooklyn, NY 4. September 17, 2007 - 7 World Trade - New York, NY 5. October 12, 2007 - Lupo's - Providence, RI 6. November 17, 2007 - Bottletree Cafe - Birmingham, AL 7. January 19, 2008 - Czar Bar - Ybor Cty, Tampa, FL 8. March 13, 2008 - Hard Rock Cafe - New York, NY 9. April 11, 2008 - Turner Hall - Milwaukee, WI 10. May 2, 2008 - Webster Hall - New York, NY 11. June 26, 2008 - Ram's Head Live - Baltimore, MD 12. June 28, 2008 - McCarren Pool - Brooklyn, NY 13. July 17, 2008 - Union Park (Pitchfork Festival) - Chicago, IL 14. September 18, 2008 - Artist's Den Bank Show - New York, NY 15. November 7, 2008 - Terminal 5 - New York, NY 16. November 14, 2008 - Riveria - Chicago, IL 17. November 15, 2008 - First Ave - Minneapolis, MN 18. March 29, 2009 - Recher Theater - Towson, MD 19. March 30, 2009 - Irving Plaza - New York, NY 20. March 31, 2009 - Valentine's - Albany, NY 21. April 15, 2009 - Harlow's - Sacramento, CA
Huh, that's more than I thought. I was going to slow down this year, but seem to have slipped and fallen and hit 4 shows already.
It now makes sense as to why I had the vague idea I'd met JonnyJay before when I saw him in Towson, however. Because I OBVIOUSLY HAD.
Also, I already had to go back an add one I had forgotten & didn't remember to make note of until I saw it on someone else's list. Nice.

6. November 17, 2007 - Bottletree Cafe - Birmingham, AL I won't throw down in this because it's not fair to the people who spend whole days in line. I will say that if I had to pick one gig from the list to boast about, the Bottletree 17/11 would be it.

the very first one: stoke sugarmill, june 2007 i stood next to craig and was too scared to talk to him. i wasn't drunk. had been at work all day. "the epiphany" as it will later be called.
cardiff the point, august 2007 went on the train, with my aunt (she booked the cardiff tickets instead of the nottingham tickets "accidently-on-purpose"). we had a lot of fun. i met the irish boys. met franz for the first time. met craig for the first time and actually poke to him this time (died a little bit here). was drunk. said some very stupid things. saw ben. most fun i'd ever had up until that point. wasn't to be the last time.
nottingham rescue rooms, august 2007 6 days after cardiff. bought nottingham tickets the NIGHT BEFORE the show. took aunt. got very excited at the front of the crowd. craig said my name on stage, i died a death.
manchester academy 2, feburary 2008 i was drunk. craig remembers me from cardiff. franz talks to my best friend hannah for the first time. she is all like, "omg they are famous rock stars!" met the scene for the first time, manchester is where i fell in love with you guys. it was cold. ben stage dives. mike does his knee in.
brighton the great escape, may 2008 we don't talk about this, too much. i explode. if you don't know then you have to ask someone else for the story.
liverpool echo arena, july 2008 hung with ben, ros, leanne, simon and duncan. shitting support slot. had fun. was tired. went to bed.
leeds irish centre, july 2008 two days after liverpool. take erica up to leeds to see the show. we have had a shitty summer so far (don't want to talk about this, thank you, bye). meet theblondette for the first time! see the scene yet again (<3). drink red bull. guys rage, we rage. lots of fun and excitement. MOJO. not drunk.
v festival staffordshire, august 2008 the only set of the weekened where i was excited. it was muddy. i was grumpy. the guys made it better. i raged, alone.
manchester academy 1, december 2008 lots of fun. cake. no drink for me. first night out since being diagnosed with hormone issues. barely survive the show. then there is a bar where there is singing and japanese people. madness. also, pink gayrilla.
wolverhampton wulfun hall, december 2008 another one i can't get my head around. there is a photo somewhere of me with the setlist. the face says it all.
london roundhouse, december 2008 first london show for anyone ever. meet lots of lovely people. get squished. almost pass out. rage hard. sleep more. greatest end to a year, gig-wise, ever. "constructive christmas" is mentioned. craig has tears in his eyes, i have tears in mine, so does howard. big night.
next: leeds cockpit in may and NYC bowery ballroom in june. ahhhh joy.
