I really like seeing live music. I try to do it as often as I can. There isn't a night of the year in these twin towns that you can't see incredibly great national, international or local sound makers. Often for FREE!!?!?

Did you experience any unforgettable live musical moments this year?

Here's some of the highlights from 2007 for me personally:

Wolfmother at Myth
Milo Fine at 331 Club
The Bangles at First Ave
Peter Bjorn John at First Ave
Blowfly at Triple Rock Social Club
Heaven and Hell at Target Center(best "reunion tour" of 2007!)
Prince at First Ave
the Spectors at the 7th Street Entry
Wilco on Lake Superior and at Northrup Auditorium
Deerhoof at Walker Art Center
Femi Kuti at MN Zoo
Charlie Parr 331 Club
Dark Dark Dark at Seward Cafe
Mute Era at Soap Factory
Walker Kong and Estate at the Turf Club
Chooglin and MC/VL at NE Block Party
Battles at the Triple Rock Social Club
Damo Suzuki's Network at Whole Music Club
Hip Hop Live tour with Rakim, Ghostface Killah and Brother Ali at First Ave
Arctic Monkeys at First Ave
Robyn Hitchcock at Cedar Cultural Center
Bettye Lavette at the Dakota
Paul Metzger and Davu Seru at the Acadia Cafe

Big ups to all the great music makers and venues that make it happen!
Looking forward to more great live music in '08!!
