Tenacious D --> Beck @ Sasquatch (counts as one because MOTHERFUCKER, motherfuckers) 8. Atlas Sound @ Neumos 9. Animal Collective @ Crystal Ballroom 10. Battles @ Bonnaroo 11. Jeff Mangum @ Moore 12. Thee Oh Sees @ Allsaints 13. Mogwai @ Bonnaroo 14. Deerhoof @ Vera Project 15. NOFX @ King Cat 16. Radiohead @ Bonnaroo 17. Cass McCombs @ Sasquatch 18. The Men @ Chop Suey 19.

So each of Death Grips' albums is worth a separate spot, but BECK AND TENACIOUS D are lumped together in one spot...
...where the fuck did you learn to make a list, SIR?

It's taking me 2 hours to Dr. Garbanzoure out the shows I have seen this year, let alone pick favourites. I got around this year guys.

I literally have no idea who all I saw this year. I think I'll keep a list in 2013 so I can actually participate next year. Wolfgang Gartner at Sasquatch was probably number one though.
