hello. half way through the year, amazing gigs so far this year, give me your top five so far.

mine:

1. animal collective at ATP. magical.
2. efterklang at QE Hall. every band was great but efterklang were something else, especially in that setting.
3. HEALTH at luminaire. stunning band, incredibly tight and energetic.
4. dananananaykroyd at buffalo bar. everyone was so into it and having such a good time. best time i've ever seen them.
5. art brut at luminaire. hadn't listened to them in about two years before the gig but they just reminded me why i used to think they were fantastic. one of the best british live acts.
