These are the ones that were really special this year. Probably one of my Top 3 years for live music ever.
1. Darkside - Bonnaroo (Nico and Dave opened a portal into another dimension of sound, still the only concert I've been at where I completely forgot where I was and just got lost in the show) 2. Ty Segall - Bonnaroo 3. Thee Oh Sees - Birmingham - The Bottletree (If this show had been at Roo, it might have challenged Darkside for #1) 4. Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds - Bonnaroo 5. Ty Segall - Nashville - Mercy Lounge (Wand opening for them were fantastic as well and deserve a mention) 6. Swans - Nashville - Exit/In 7. DJ Shadow and Cut Chemist - Atlanta - The Loft (Renegades of Rhythm tour: They had 6 turntables and Afrika Bambaataa's record collection... and I was 10 ft away from them... nuff said, right?) 8. Damon Albarn - Bonnaroo (Del AND De La Soul! Fuckin' righteous!) 9. Flying Lotus - Atlanta - The Tabernacle 10. Neutral Milk Hotel - Bonnaroo 11. Pixies - Atlanta - The Tabernacle 12. Goat - Bonnaroo 13. James Blake - Bonnaroo
