great list, was at a lot of those as well. would add dirty pretty things at bowery in 2006.
I like the list for the most part, but Ryan Adams at Battery Park? Were we at the same show? I thought Ryan Adams was dead drunk at that 4th of July show. In fact, it was so forgettable, I nearly erased it from my memory.
Arcade Fire at Irving Plaza (w/ Final Fantasy and Man Man) would have to be on this list for me. David Byrne came out for the encore, I can still feel the energy.
So not fair.
Royksopp and the Knife.
I hate you.
sondre lerche this year at webster was so endearing.
