Seems like long stretches around here where hardly any decent shows come around, then everything at once. The third week in May has shows by Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Morrissey, and Kings Of Leon. I've got some deciding to do.

I think Morrissey's already been decided for you, am I right? ;)

Yes, Morrissey is a lock (if I would somehow be unable to acquire tickets I will likely be found roaming the streets looking for a place to sleep until I get myself settled in a new apartment after being kicked out by my wife for gross negligence in a matter of utmost urgency)...even though tickets will likely be outrageous by my standards (I still get pissed when shows are more than 10 bucks). The real call is between BRMC and Kings of Leon. Kings of Leon has the advantage of being a weekend show, but the disadvantage of having already seen them a couple times. And, I can't see my cheap ass springing for all three.

Tough call. I haven't seen either but I'm digging the hell out of BRMC's new one. I've heard KOL is pretty damn good live. I'd expect a younger crowd for KOL.


As to why things come in bunches, I think it may be because bands tend to release things around the same time of the year and spring/summer/fall tours are better than touring in the winter.

I have no evidence to back any of that up though.

BRMC. Esp. since you've already seen KoL.

I like Loud.

Leaning BRMC just 'cause I get sick of seeing the same bands over and over.
