too many to even list off. ordstro/matsuri/obacha. ahna/yellowthief/shearing pinx. willing feet/cetascean/iskra. grindlandia. noisefest day two. bloody phoenix. fastcore fest. anarchist bookfair show. iskra/no eulogy/sbb tour kickoff. the last two war hero shows. what else even happened this year?
i am including the 13 hour drive to get to foul copse watching tyler and zach get wasted in the back seat, Willa tell creepy as fuck personal stories...and zach actually...then rolling up to iskra playing at like 3am? (my memory is fucking gone) and wolf being so drunk.

this year had some seriously awesome shows. i definitely skipped out on way too many though, and for sure regret it now.
stuff i checked out and loved:
omegas/mad men (last show)
sheer terror
big k.r.i.t./smoke dza (saw em twice, killed it both times)
foundation/harms way
free spirit/urban blight/dead end path/united youth
iron lung/slaughter strike (last show...ughhhhhhh they were so good)
HAYMAKER/fog of leprosy (wasn't necessarily as wild as people fronted but otherwise totally great. some guy beside me got part of his shoe burnt off by a firecracker)
stuff that is happening soon that will most likely make the "best of 2011" list:
waka flocka flame (next weekend. get buck)
not dead yet weekend (a whole lot of amazing here)
jay z/kayne (my friend is getting a private box. i'm not even necessarily a big fan of either, but anything at that level of baller status is going to be awesome)
