Because 12 is embarrassing enough of a number, I think.

The Knife and Nick Cave are all I need. Year set.

Fuckin' right. If 2013 ends up being the year that I get to see the Knife? Fuckin' right. They're pretty much the only name on my bucket list that doesn't belong to an elder statesman like Tom Waits or Peter Gabriel.

If they tour and don't hit Seattle, I will road trip to the nearest show. No way I'm missing that shit.

The Knife have done like what, 5 shows ever in North America? Who knows what the hell those two will do next year.

My guess is that they'll be at Coachella, and those of us who can't go will just have to be sad.

Everyone come to Coachella with me. All you need is a ticket.

That's how I always feel about Coachella. Meeeeee too. I'm kind of resigned to the fact that the only thing that will ever render missing Coachella a non-option is an Oingo Boingo reunion. Considering there is literally a 0% chance of that happening, I most likely won't ever make it down. Makes me sad.

Mine would probably be either LCD Soundsystem or Kraftwerk. Or both.
Oh God, both... best year ever

I'll be honest - the fact that you were at Sasquatch 2010 and you drank yourself out of the single greatest performance your favorite band ever gave causes me not to take you very seriously. Everyone who was there knows - it wasn't just incredible, it was special. Important. Get it together, little dude.

How many dates would you go to if they brought their 8-albums-in-8-days residency thing to Seattle? Keep in mind we would be paying around $100 per show. I would do at least the first three.

Probly shoulda wandered looking for a ticket but drinking the sadness away works too I guess.

Keep in mind we would be paying around $100 per show. I would do at least the first three. At least 4. Autobahn, Radioactivity, Man Machine, and Computer World. All of those would be necessary if I wanted to continue my existence as a human. I would spend $100 for each of those shows in a heartbeat. Didn't he just not have a ticket for that day and drank to numb the pain? Probly shoulda wandered looking for a ticket but drinking the sadness away works too I guess. Pretty much this -- I was in a really bad spot financially that year, and they had not announced their impending breakup yet, so I sold my ticket and camped and figured I'd catch them on the next tour. Despite that, I still stood at the edge of the campground drinking and chainsmoking and trying not to be too weepy. Also, for the record, nobody expected that caliber of performance from them at Sasquatch. It took everybody by complete surprise, which was part of the reason everyone loved it so much. Was it a once in a lifetime opportunity? Yeah, and I missed out. But moping around about it won't change anything. All I can do is be certain I won't make the same mistake twice. Side note: the knowledge of all of this made James Murphy's DJ set last year that much more incredible. That he declared the DJ set itself to be "the most fun I've had playing a show in 2 or 3 years" made it so much sweeter.
