Chris Conley at HOB San Diego
I honestly didn’t even check who were the openers for the Dashboard tour. I kinda figured that I’ve never been to as Dashboard show without at least one amazing opener (true story, I first heard Brand New when they opened for D/C back in the day, plus I’ll never forget that amazing show with Augustana opening in KC). So when we got to the Troub on Thursday and I saw the Saves the...

Dashboard Confessional at HOB SD
Night two of my Swiss Army Romance 10th Anniversary shows. Also the last night of the tour. It had the makings to be magical and for the most part, it was. Especially once I told the drunk loud talkers to shut up. Come on people, it’s an acoustic show. STFU already! But anyways, set list … Dashboard Confessional Swiss Army Romance 10th Anniversary Tour House of Blues San Diego, CA...

2010 Year In Show →
Never got around to writing a best in show post for 2010 - though it’s probably best in the grand scheme of things. My show attendance went down dramatically from the past two years - mostly because bands I see multiple times a year (like NIN and Brand New) aren’t touring. Sigh.

stxer asked: Hi There! You reviewed the Dresden Dolls but didn't mention Poplamoose. I'm a big fan of theirs and wondered if you heard them and/or liked them last night??? I'm new here and am not sure where to look for a reply from you. Thanks!
