December 27, 200817 yr Cedar Walton at the Village Vanguard in ten minutes:o Nice! Sorry I missed you guys, date night with the wife. nice! Try not to fall asleep. Heh, I heard that story. A real motley crew had assembled from what I've heard.

December 29, 200817 yr As you can imagine, it was totally fucking insane. I got to see Zorn play with Dave Douglas at Tonic awhile back, I have never seen a musician like Zorn that put everything they had into their playing.
January 26, 200917 yr Mos Def & The Experiment (Robert Glasper, Casey Benjamin, a bassist I forgot the name of who was subbing, and the fucking amazing drummer Chris Dave) at The Blue Note NYC DAMN! This was one of the best shows I've ever been to. Mos Def's band is flat-out incredible; they're tighter than almost any band I've ever seen and have a great sense of dynamics. There was a Radiohead song (forgot the name), some furious jamming, that poem from the inauguration which was 100 times better coming from Mos Def with music, and an epic version of De La Soul's Stakes Is High. They've completely suceeded in bringing together Jazz and Hip-Hop. If you get a chance to see them, do it. It was even worth standing for 5 hours straight...
January 26, 200917 yr Mos Def is awesome. Debating on taking my friends offer to see Metallica next weekend. Metallica or Super Bowl...
February 9, 200917 yr Saw Cat Power last night at the 9:30 Club in DC. Damn, what a fucking incredible voice, and I've gained a much better appreciation for her band now than I had when I was just listening to the studio albums.
February 9, 200917 yr Didn't know about this thread. Ann Sophie Mutter, Andre Previn and some bassist along with the Kennedy Center Orchestra at the Kennedy Center. That woman is awe inspiring with a violin.

February 9, 200917 yr Did you see Joshua Bell at Strathmore? That was incredible too. Nope no such luck. Generally my wife and I stick to the KC (we attend more ballet and opera than classical) because we like to take the Metro into DC but I'll have take a look at what's going on out there.
February 9, 200917 yr Did you see Joshua Bell at Strathmore? That was incredible too.Goddamnit, tell me about these things! I would've gone to that. Joshua Bell is probably my second favorite living violinist. (J/K...it's not your fault I've slipped in keeping track of concert schedules and the like...)
February 19, 200917 yr Posting from the iPhone. Currently sitting in the first balcony of the Lyric Opera waiting to see Pagliacci and Cavalleria Rusticana. A night at the opera! Yay!
March 7, 200917 yr Phish 3/6/09 Hampton, VA I haven't seen them but several times, but it was the best phish I've ever seen. incredible set list, super tight playing, positive crowd, unreal energy. I'm happy I was there. Tonight: Morrissey, Atlanta, Variety Playhouse. Can't wait to have a huge messy cheeeeebugga from Vortex!
March 9, 200917 yr He was great the last time at Yoshi's, but this time was "solo acoustic" so I wasn't sure what that was going to be.
