http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/9/2010/02/500x_hot_dog.jpgNo, let's not talk about food again in tonight's edition of Kotaku Off Topic (http://kotaku.com/tag/offtopic/), despite the weight of two Trader Joe's hot dogs weighing heavily on my duodenum. Let's talk about music. Or, you know, whatever.
The reason I bring it up is because I went to one of my first shows in quite some time last night to see my friends in WALK play. Show attendance is a rarity for me anymore, feeling like I've seen some of the best performers already put on the best shows during my most energetic years. But after being burnt out on the concept of watching people play music for some time, I'm ready to re-enjoy the live performance.
So, please, tell us about your favorite shows, your favorite performers, your most memorable musical moments if you feel the urge to respond. Otherwise, talk about whatever off topic you choose and get caught up on a few off topic subjects.
