December 29, 200817 yr comment_188815 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. Report
January 26, 200917 yr comment_199703 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... Report
January 26, 200917 yr comment_199783 that sounds fucking amazing. I wish I went or even knew about it Report
January 26, 200917 yr comment_199843 Mos Def is awesome. Debating on taking my friends offer to see Metallica next weekend. Metallica or Super Bowl... Report
February 9, 200917 yr comment_204646 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. Report
February 9, 200917 yr comment_204649 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. Report

February 9, 200917 yr comment_204681 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. Report
February 9, 200917 yr comment_204693 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...) Report
