I saw Leftover Salmon over the summer, that might have been it.

4

Very little. Saw Saucerful in April, and Billy in December. Getting old.

5

Holy shit @funktastic and @opsopcopolis. Impressive!

6

Not many. Only 4 UM shows (8/18, 10/18, 10/19, and 11/9), which is my lowest count since 2009, and half my previous low in any other year since 2010.

I also saw my second King Crimson show, third Morglbl, and ~sixth Consider the Source. First times for me were Polyphia, Garaj Mahal, and Mastodon.

That’s all I can recall off hand.

7

Hmm…light year compared to a couple years past but it was a good one. May be missing a couple

A few UM shows, Tool, Flecktones, Fleetwood Mac, Railroad Earth, John Mayer, Punch Brothers, JRAD.

June Jam(small AZ fest) had my DJ debut lol

15

really? i’ve heard an anecdote or two of people really enjoying this show last year so just curious what was terrible about it

16

Yeah I’ve heard nothing but awesome things about anderson paak live

17

If you want to see him play the drums he did that for about 10 minutes of his set. The rest of the time it was like a pop bullshit show where he ran around, shouted out single people between every song, and changed his clothes a bunch.

18

Probably didn’t help that it was a festival set in Vegas with a terrible crowd, but still the show was pretty wack regardless.

19

I saw him in May and thought it was great. Production was top notch, band was killer.
