Granite and Tumble

I have always had a great interest in attending live music concerts. Consequently, I have attended many in my day (70-80 a year in College and 40-60 a year post College). I have also always been interested in categorically ranking events. However, it was until my second year in Chicago, when I was waxing nostalgia about some of the great shows of the past when I experienced my epiphany. I finally realized why people kept journals. So it was a natural extension to begin recording and ranking my concerts, sort of a musical diary if you will. Anyway, the following volumes list my favorite live events and recorded music of the respective year.
