I GUESS IT IS THAT TIME AGAIN
This is the only entry that I re-publish periodically just so I can keep track of this stuff.
(circa 2004 blog starts here)
A few months ago, my cousin-in-law Evan asked me what the best concert I have ever attended was. I couldn’t really think of which one was the best. However, it started me thinking about all of the concerts that I attended. I’ve managed to fill in a fair percentage of My Show History, right here. Unfortunately, this is definitely not all of it. This is maybe half of it. As I remember shows, I’ll fill in gaps and whatnot. Shows appended with an *asterisk* are ones at which I performed. Shows preceded with an asterisk are The Best Shows.

To add to that comment about George Sanger, see http://blogs.loc.gov/digitalpreservation/2013/08/%e2%99%ab-beep-boop-la-la-la-the-george-sanger-collection-at-ut-austin-videogame-archive/
George Sanger does not give concerts that I am aware of, but since his formidable collection of compositions for video games was recently acquired by the Briscoe Library at UT, it occurs to me to ask you to consider interviewing him. Or something.
