[faxman75]

This thread confuses me.

[mountmccabe]

I honestly don't know have anything I need to see after Caribou next week.

This slow is not normal.

[higgybaby23]

The season seems pretty typical to me. Tucson's summer schedule is actually better than normal, imo. Usually we get nothing during the summer months in the Old Pueblo.

[amyzzz]

Oh yeah Caribou is next week. I gotta listen to them.

edit: holy jesus. If it's not sold out yet, I totally want to see Caribou.

That's not in Arizona. STFU.

No Age/Michelle Blades
Andrew Jackson Jihad/Bomb The Music Industry!
Found Magazine/Watson Twins
Wilco/Grizzly Bear

OK, 2008 was slow, thought not as bad as 2010 looks like it's gonna be:
Colorstore/Miniature Tigers
Gomi/Jack Ripper

(Plus I missed some time for Pitchfork.)

[mountmccabe]

So what I'm gathering is that June through August usually is a little slow, compared to the rest of the year (though 2006 I was right on schedule, over it if I were to count Pitchfork)

But. Really. This is what I have gathered for the time period in the other thread:

06/02/10 - Melvins @ Clubhouse
06/05/10 - Miike Snow @ Clubhouse
06/06/10 - Josiah Wolf (of Why?), Cars and Trains, the Whisperlights @ Trunk Space
06/07/10 - Mumford & Sons, Middle East @ Rhythm Room
06/10/10 - Sage Francis, b.dolan @ Clubhouse
06/13/10 - The Sadies, Lonna Kelley @ Rhythm Room
06/18/10 - Matt Pond Pa, Wintersleep @ Sail Inn
06/22/10 - Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeroes, Dawes @ Clubhouse
06/23/10 - Erykah Badu @ Marquee
06/23/10 - Grupo Fantasma/Nortec Collective @ Rhythm Room
06/28/10 - Blitzen Trapper, the Moondoggies @ Clubhouse
06/28/10 - Damien Jurado @ Rhythm Room

07/10/10 - Kings of Leon, Built To Spill, The Features @ Cricket Pavilion

07/22/10 - Pinback @ Clubhouse
08/17/10 - Natalie Merchant @ Dodge Theatre
08/27/10 - Slayer and Megadeth with Testament @ Dodge Theatre

and I see one show I might go to.

I bet there'll be plenty of good local shows, I guess.

Also if you were trying to make this a thread wherein folks list and/or discuss upcoming shows that is what the General Phoenix Area Shows thread is. That list of upcoming shows I just posted came from the first post of that thread.
