Thanks for the Canadian concession! 1) Sigur Rós @ Sasquatch Seriously, even six months later I'm still getting little aftershocks. I don't know what happened to me at this show but damn, am I glad it did. 2) Nine Inch Nails @ The Key Arena 3) Postal Service (JENNY LEWIS I MEAN) @sasquatch 4) Queens of the Stone Age @ Squamish 5) Jay-Z & Justin Timberlake @ Rogers Arena 6) Vampire Weekend @ Squamish 7) !!! @ Bumbershoot Probably the best dance party of the year 8) Chali 2na @ Rifflandia 9) Matt & Kim x 2, equally as fun at Bumbershoot & Rifflandia. 10) Chvrches @ Sasquatch 11) Jurassic 5 @ Squamish 12) John Talabot @ Sasquatch 13) Big Boi @ Rifflandia Although this just wet my whistle for the full Outkast reunion! 14) The Breeders @ Bumbershoot AKA the night 90s grrrrrl music saved my sanity. 15) Dan Mangan @ Squamish 16) Madeon @ Squamish 17) The Mounties @ Rifflandia 18) Weezer @ Rock The Shores Yeah yeah, I know. But seriously, it was so much fun to sing along and boogie with the whole crowd at that show. I even had fun with songs I fucking hate to death. 19) That awesome baby @ Bumbershoot Seriously you guys, that baby. 20) Gogol Bordello @ Squamish. Only last 'cause it really wasn't the musical best per se, more the bouncing around and dancing and spraying water and having SO MUCH FUN in the crowd with our giant crew. Comedy Highlights! Tig Notaro @ Sasquatch Doug Loves Movies @ Bumbershoot Improv4Humans @ Bumbershoot Kyle Kinane @ Sasquatch Man, making this list just gave me a lot of feels. I had such a good time with so many amazing people in front of so much awesome music this year. Seriously, thanks to everyone who was a part of my adventures this year, love y'all so much.

10. Built to Spill @ Slim's 9. Tame Impala @ Sasquatch 8. Killer Mike @ Sasquatch 7. CHVRCHES @ Doug Fir Lounge 6. Paul McCartney @ SafeCo Field- Second time seeing Macca so I knew what was coming. Otherwise, it would have been number 1. 5. Macklemore & Ryan Lewis @ Sasquatch!- This show will be the number 1 highlight of Macklemore's career, guaranteed. 4. How to Destroy Angles @ The Regency Ballroom- After seeing the amazingly visual Trent Reznor spectacle in a club, for some ridiculous reason, I didn't want to see it in an arena, so I missed Tension. My mistake. 3. The Postal Service @ Alex Madonna Expo Center 1 & 2- THE YEEZUS TOUR @ Key Arena
Most disappointing concert of 2013: Modest Mouse @ Fox Theater. After their amazing Sasquatch 2011 headlining set, I had high hopes. This show was the first among their small run of shows surrounding Coachella. It was not great.

13) Big Boi @ Rifflandia Although this just wet my whistle for the full Outkast reunion! Big Boi was generically boring when I saw him earlier this year. If the reunion happens, Andre better carry that shit, otherwise they'll need hang-gliders shooting roman candles at each other and elephants shitting on movie stars to make that show worth seeing. 5. Grinderman @ Coachella That will at least go down as one of the most memorable shows of my existence.

Really? Maybe it was a lot due to the crowd being super into it but I thought it was a fantastic show. I mean, he did spend most of his time sitting (in a freaking throne) but I'm pretty sure that was due to injury, not just laziness.
