So how many are on that list exactly (minus duplicates)?
whatever that number is, it's still a helluva lot.
Next year your goal should be to list the number of concerts, plus associated random hookups at these ventures!
After this post I really need to sit down and try to remember the shows that i've been.
but wait mister, we're in early December, there's still one month to come.
Good luck trying to find good concerts in December...
