Anyway, it got me thinking and wondering...what good shows have you seen this summer?

I'm jealous of LA seeing Tom Petty!

LOL Level that's funny.  I saw him too.  Years ago. I saw his come-back tour, when he was debuting "Take Me Home Tonight" and it was a hot show because he was hungry.  After he was popular again, I saw him again and and he was so drunk he kept dropping the microphone & forgetting his own lyrics. 

Anyway, seeing your name reminded me - and how could I have possibly forgotten (other than it technically was not summer), that I also recently saw David Gilmour.  Hot, hot show.

Status: offline 		The last two shows I have been to were wonderful. I saw The Musical Box which is an old era Genesis tribute band. They actually recreate the concerts as they were performed right down to the exact instruments they used. They play only Peter Gabriel era Genesis, what the purists would refer to as the 'only real' Genesis. I saw them play the Selling England By The Pound tour and The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway.

The other show I saw was Laurie Anderson performing her The End Of The Moon tour. It was (is) about her experience as the first and last artist in residence at NASA. If you aren't familiar with Miss Anderson's work, she is worth a listen. A bit on the high-brow side, but she is quite interesting.

It was so good.  At the Mountain Winery in Saratoga.  Shawn was all accousitic, her voice sweet as ever.  Bruce was incredible.  I recommend his new CD.

Twas cool- here are a few pics, he had Stevie Nicks come out and do a few songs together as well.

The RNRHOF was absolutely amazing and totally worth the trip, if you do it right, it will take you at least 10 hours to go through the whole thing.  It expanded my understanding of the history and richness of RNR ten-fold.  And it made me really pissed that I was born so late again :)
