Pepper 2 Nights!

Top 10 favorite bands I've seen live is mos definitely Pepper. The boys from Kona Town are finishing up their Law Records Tour in Anaheim night 2 tonight, and I was fortunate enough to see them last night, and Thursday night in LA with special guests Shwayze
Pepper puts on a great live show. They start off a 4-song set and open up the show to whatever the fans want to hear. After announcing their summer tour with Pennywise, the trio tore it down with a little Bro-Hymn, Nirvana, and Blur songs that got the crowd all riled up!

Rebelution Concert

Everytime I go to a concert, and my seats are good enough, I always try to take a good photo-op with my faithful cell phone camera
rebelution
This picture was taken at a sold-out State Radio/Rebelution show, which was a great concert to start the year with. The fans were amazing, and of course Rebelution killed it! Their debut ablum, Courage to Grow was named 2007's best reggae album on iTunes.

Spotlight

Photobucket
His name is James Morrison, and he is one of my favorite recent British imports. This 24-year-old singer/songwriter's debut album was released in 2006 with the semi-popular single "You Give Me Something". His sophomore album, Songs for You, Truth for Me reached #1 in the UK, and he's making his way to the US charts with this single, "Nothing Ever Hurt Like You". Where we've heard Amy Winehouse and Duffy bring back the "Motown" sound, we finally get the guy-version, and its a good one.
