Just bought four tickets to Vampire Weekend at White Oak. Pretty stoked for that.

Just got a hilltop table for 4 for VW at White Oak! Seen them live a few times, great performance.

Vampire Weekend for me as well.

How is White Oak? I've some how managed to not see anything there yet but got tickets for Jenny Lewis in April. What is the set up there?

They've got the lawn for their bigger shows. It's a nice setup but the shows aren't as loud as they should be and always end early because of the agreement with the neighbors. The indoor downstairs room hosts a lot of shows and is similar to house of blues with a balcony over it but everything is general admission. The indoor upstairs room is small and intimate and I love seeing shows here because you can get real close to the band you are seeing.

Kurt Vile and Tyler Childers at White Oak. Jim James at the Heights. So far...

Got a ticket for Wallows and tickets for both Vampire Weekend shows at Moody Theater. Gonna try to get VIP for Billie Eilish in LA on thursday during the presale. If not then I'll try get one for VW at White Oak.

Foo Fighters just postponed their New Orleans shows til May. "Band member injury."

hopefully cody jinks as my red rocks show for the year

Only been inside for one show (Matt & Kim) but really enjoyed it.

It looks like the outside shows start a tad earlier to account for the early end. At least the VW ticket says 6:30 as opposed to usual 7:00 doors.

BJ Thomas (My friend is his nephew)

Can't wait to see all the blue hairs get down to the music.

Al Green is playing a few shows in April. May have to go see him.

Jim James announced a second show at Heights Theater, very jealous of that, if it weren't in the middle of the week i'd be there. Going to see him in Dallas though at Granada
2/10 - Murder By Death, J Roddy Walston and the Business, and Jonny Fritz
7/2 - Dead & Co
8/2 8/3 - My Morning Jacket at Red Rocks
April - STS9 House of Blues Dallas
Todd Snider @ Kessler
Joe Russo's Almost Dead - HoB Dallas
Susto @ Deep Ellum Art Co

Got my VIP M&G for Billie Eilish at the Greek in LA. Her tour sold out in less than an hour. 3 LA shows and about 7 venues were upgraded, as well as second dates in NYC, Chicago (a 2 pm show lol), and SLC.

Cursive last night was awesome at White Oak.

It was inside but the second floor/balcony area was curtained off. Maybe 300 people were there. Kind of surprised, but made for an intimate show. They were on my bucket list and didn't dissappoint.

Metallica in Lubbock if I can find a ticket.

Jason Isbell / Father John Misty tour announced. Playing White Oak in Houston.

LOVE Isbell but I've seen him the last two tours here. Never listened to FJM. I remember reading a short Q&A with him in Rolling Stone once that made him sound like a complete arsehole. Maybe I need to get past that and give his music a chance.

FJM is fantastic live. He is one of those performers that really connect with the music and the audience. You can't take your eyes off him. His music can be a bit dark and cynical but I've grown to really enjoy it. Stoked Isbell will be with him. FJM even has a reference to Isbell in his song Mr. Tillman.

6 shows for me in March, can't wait.

Sammy Kershaw
Jo Dee Messina
TG Sheppard
Kasey Musgraves
Guster
Tracy Lawrence

Deep cut right here,...

Toh Kay with a String Quartet in San Francisco on Friday.

Just bought tickets for that show in Dallas on June 27. Don't know anything abouy FJM, other than that my younger colleagues are into him.

Isbell is awesome live. I've seen him four other times.

His WTF interview with Marc Maron left me with the same impression and I've had a hard time enjoying his music ever since. Which is weird for me because I'm usually good at separating the artist from their art, FJM is one for whatever reason I can't.

Haven't heard the WTF interview, but I agree, I can't just seem to get past his persona. And I've read that FJM is really just a "character" that Josh Tillman (his real name) inhabits. Maybe so, but so far I don't get the joke.

I hate to miss Isbell but damn my concert budget is hurting with all these shows, and if it's a co-headliner show then it won't be as full as a set. Plus I've seen him twice in the last year and a half alone with amazing full sets.

Decisions.

FYI, the presale password is FJMISBELL and it starts at 10:00 this morning.

Hayes Carll Friday at Continental Club

Bought a ticket for American Football at White Oak last weekend. FYI, paying cash at the box office saved me a bunch in fees.

Also planning to see John Maus at Warehouse Live next week and Swervedriver/Failure there in March.

Not a bad idea. Between CHVRCHES and Isbell that would save my $40-50 in fees probably.

Ray Wylie Hubbard on Friday night in New Braunfels.

Billy Joel at Globe Life Park in Oct
Heart/Joan Jett and others Woodlands in Aug
Goo Goo Dolls and Train in June in Woodlands with kids
Dwight Yoakum this Saturday at Billy Bobs

Will also be at the billy bobs Dwight Yoakam show. Should be good.

Bought tickets over the weekend for Chris Stapleton in Shreveport this August. Has anyone here seen Stapleton? How is his live show?

Also got REK and Turnpike Troubadors in July.

Now I need some metal in my concert diet. Planning to get some Iron Maiden tickets later on. Just cant decide whether to take the family to that one or go solo.

Seen Stapleton twice. He is excellent live. I was thinking about hitting that same show. You MUST catch the opening, Marcus King Band. They are incredible.

We are all-in when we go to concerts. Start to finish. We'll make sure to catch the opening acts. I think Marty Stuart is opening as well.

Can confirm, Marcus King Band will more than likely blow you away compared to Stapleton. Stapleton is good live, MKB is great

Within Temptation-Probably purchase tickets tomorrow Chicago or Denver next month edit: we going to San Fran to see them

Kamalot, Battlebeast and Sonata Arctica-House of Blues in Dallas in Oct..should be a goodun

Saw KISS twice back in the mid-'70s....thought about it...gotta pass this last time.

But, would have given my left teste to have been at this one:



Greatest voice on the planet...new album due in '20 and hopefully a US tour to follow. A bucket list deal...

My Tenacious D tickets came in today.
