As I've got no concert tickets in December, I'm ready to declare the final tally on 2009: 34 shows (counting festivals as 1 each). Well ahead of my annual target of 26. Here's what I saw in the last quarter of 2009, favorites in bold:
SF Symphony, Itzhak Perlman cond. Bach, Elgar, Tchaikovsky
Ani Difranco
Treasure Island Festival (Grizzly Bear, Beirut, Decemberists, Flaming Lips)
Regina Spektor
The Mountain Goats
UPDATE: OK, I made it to one more show, featuring Odessa Chen and Noe Venable. That brings the total to 35 shows this year.

I saw Ani here in Rochester and loved her...my favorite (except when she said "What the fuck goes on here in Med City anyway?" was..."if you're not getting happier as you get older, your f-ing up..."
food for thought...xox rachel
