i've only gone to two shows this year.
1. silversun pickups with manchester orchestra and cage the elephant at the valarium in knoxville, tn.
2. slipknot with coheed and cambria and trivium at the sommet center in nashville, tn.

[Cøltøn]

1. Flogging Molly & Inward Eye (Flogging Molly played like 2hours! First time seeing them and they're awesome.)
Damn I had bought tickets to this cus Gallows were advertised as playing but then a couple weeks before the show pulled out :/ so I ended up selling my tickets (although I do lie Flogging Molly - just not enough to pay $40). Kinda wish I still went.

Manchester Orchestra - The Troc

I'm a broke college student so ten shows a year is kind of rough. I really wanted to see the Paramore/No Doubt show at the tweeter., but that was the night of my highschool graduation. I was already at college when Blink came to the tweeter... Well, susquehanna. You're one lucky girl for seeing Bob Dylan at Temple though. I'm hoping that TSL reunion show on the 29th will be my show of the year though. Man, it feels good to be home.

This year, I didn't go to that many shows for some reason but the best show I saw was either of the times I saw Thursday - the first was at TOC on 3/23/09 and the other was at The Door on 10/15/09 - such an amazing live band; I hope they tour next year

Circa Survive (two nights at chain reaction)
Brand New.
Ace Enders/The Gay Blades/Person L.
