on a tuesday in amsterdam long ago

so earlier this fall i had plans to see coldplay. wait, i take that back- i didnt just have "plans" - i had a freakin ticket and the show got cancelled due to "illness." anyhow, i was thinking about it, and while ive seen a few good shows in the last few years, there are still a lot of people id like to see live. i decided to make a list, so here it is, in no particular order:

1. coldplay (they owe me one)

2. counting crows (i think id marry adam duritz)

3. lauryn hill (she brought out the soul within, plus, who doesnt like sister act 2?)

4. indigo girls (they taught me how to harmonize)

5. yellowcard

6. don chaffer (esp. if lori happens to make the show)

7. paul wright

8. shawn mcdonald

9. eminem (i honestly would go)

10. nas (i think he is the best lyricist of his gen. of mcs)

11. james taylor

12. alison krauss

13. pink martini

14. josh groban

15. g. love

i think thats a pretty solid list for now. i'll let you know if i ever get to see any of these people.

so, who would make your list?

i almost put paddington on there in case you happened to read it. plus, im sure you guys put on a good show, although . . . at this point i dont think id come to this show unless you agreed to perform wearing that long-john's-and-fur getup you wore to the christmas party. i mean, if im going to come out for the show, you might as well make a little interesting.
