neil pert! there's this rad scene in a freaks & geeks episode where nick is practicing drums and he's playing along to "the spirit of radio". heh i found it on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=taB3U0b9zdA

my fav concert would be a split between seeing radiohead at the gorge in washington in ...2001?, it's this outdoor area in the middle of canyonic nowhere, the beta band and someone else opened, and then just as the sun was setting, radiohead came on, and it was awesome. the parking lot was like a huge campground where everyone just stayed the night and partied afterwards ... we didn't have enough beer, and that was my fault because i thought "no way are we going to need that much" when we stopped in yakima on the way there. and we nearly finished everything BEFORE the concert. my bad, dudes.

the other great show was sigur ros in portland. i was stoned out of my gourd and it was all just ... wow.
There's a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious—makes you so sick at heart—that you can't take part. You can't even passively take part. And you've got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and you've got to make it stop. And you've got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it, that unless you're free, the machine will be prevented from working at all

Take That again. The Circus was the most amazing thing I've ever seen. It was spectacular. :)

I'ma gonna go with Newton Faulkner.

His music is wonderful on albums and so on, but his concerts are an experience.

So enjoyable, I'll find the videos we have
