Kings of Leon @ MSG 1/29/09

Had the chance to catch the Followill brothers bring down the house at MSG last week. Sick show. I probably kicked over as many beers as I ended up drinking. While that sucks for my pocketbook, it is a sign of the amount of booty shaking I was doing as well. I'll take that trade. Also as a personal first, it was at this show that I first drank beer from a straw. Not sure about that one, but it does minimize the spillage. Good times.

My Morning Jacket 12/31/08 @ MSG

My Morning Jacket at Madison Square Garden for New Year's Eve. We had this one booked and circled on the calendar since last summer. Our anticipation and excitement was rewarded with an awesome performance by the gang from Louisville.

(you may need to login to google to hear stream this. We're still learning. feedback welcome.)

"Have a lot of fun, make a lot of love, spread a lot of joy. It's 2009!"

We had fun with the 'black tie' theme the band recommended for the occasion (although we were out shopping the day before the show). I can honestly say that I've never had more fun in formal wear and as the band played for 3+ hours I felt like I got my money's worth ($5.50 @ Salvation Army)out of my double breasted white sport coat.


It was a great night and one I have trouble putting into words so I've attached a few link to let others enjoy the night.
