I listened to a NPR program about the best of 2005 in pop music.  There was no overlap with my picks.

 

 

My favorite music events in 2005 were

 

Slacktone at the Bottom of the Hill opening for the Surf Coasters in March

and

Gogol Bordello at The Blank Club in July

 

What were yours?

 

 

See you down front,
