I keep a master list of everyone I want to see in my life and then write down when I see each one and keep a tally of multiples. It's a pretty awesome thing to look at.

This makes perfect sense to me because Death Grips spent an individual 3-4 month period working on each album, separated by a 6 month period, while Beck and Tenacious D rehearsed together (possibly maybe) to play the same song at the same time at the same event.

I forgot about M83 at the Paramount! That was a great show. Or maybe it was just a great edible I had beforehand. Either way, aliens and lasers and shit.

Bonnaroo was the epic one where Goldbeard and I traversed the tides to find you just in time (for droogz), and then I cried because they finally played 'Separator'.
