Before I attend concerts I have this routine (tradition) that I always listen to music from the artist in the weeks and days prior to the show. I am not sure when I started this but my iPod makes it much easier to create that playlist now.
So what is on my iPod concert playlist this week?
Ray Rush is a new artist that I am getting familiar with and his music is online – check out the link below. He is coming to the Hominy Lounge in DC tonight and I am excited to see him in person. So technically he is not on my iPod but I have been listening here —> http://istreetlight.bandcamp.com/
Raheem, Jaheim, Anthony Hamilton in preparation for the upcoming Budweiser Superfest in VA. I realize I don’t have any Kem music on my iPod. I like him but guess I haven’t found a song that made me want to buy the whole album. Raheem is by far my favorite and I cringe everytime I think about the last time I saw him near the Verizon Center and froze up.
Also have a list for Liv Warfield, Raphael Saadiq, Dwele, Chrisette Michele for the Vail Soul Music Fest. Jonathan B is also performing but I don’t know him (yet). I have also heard there will be lots of surprises and I LOVE surprises! I am so excited to go on this trip! I have traveled to the Winter Park Jazz Fest in the past with my best friends, but I am REALLY excited to see my favorite artists at the 1st inagural soul fest! I am chasing my passion literally! I plan to take lots of pics, interview artists and bring the entire experience to life just as if you were there (just in case you can’t make it). http://www.vailsoulmusicfest.com/
So, my playlist is full of music I can’t wait to experience in person. Does anyone else do anything interesting to prepare for live music experiences?
