Hey Mike!!!  I know the Judybats' were awesome in concert!!!  Too bad they're
defunct!!!  I saw them for free in Cincinnati (great show outdoors on the
lawn)  and then in Indianapolis!!!  Both shows were terrific but they were
much happier doing the Cincinnati gig!!!  It's more enjoyable when the
performers are enjoying themselves.  Other great concerts I've seen were
Matthew Sweet in Bloomington and the Connells.  Radiohead is also a terrific
band live -- they are just totally under-rated.  That's sad but true.
