Here’s my wish list of concerts for 2012. Except for Dead Can Dance, who have announced a reunion tour in 2012, these are all artists who still tour on a regular basis and for whom it has been a good long while since I last saw them. Kathleen Edwards and the Hold Steady I’ve never seen, much to my disappointment. One or two of them I know will be touring but I have no idea whether I will get to see them. I shall revisit this list at the end of 2012 and check how many I got to see.
1. Dead Can Dance
2. Peter Hammill
3. Okkervil River
4. Gillian Welch
5. Kathleen Edwards
6. Home Service
7. Einstürzende Neubauten
8. The Dirty Three
9. Tindersticks
10. Cowboy Junkies
11. Spiritualized
12. The Hold Steady
Already Kathleen Edwards and Tindersticks have announced extensive European tours which don’t include Vienna… not a good start.
