One of my dream shows would be Gogol and Flogging Molly.

I have seen both a number of times but together would be amazing! Kinda like when I saw NIN, Manson, and Bowie all at the same venue... man what a show.

Last time I saw Flogging Molly my wife was 9 months preggo, so I guess it could be considered my daughters first show :p
 
I saw Gogol with MCR under the Brooklyn bridge. First time I saw/heard them. It was awesome. Been hooked ever since.

Some of the best instrumentalists here:

i love this group of people... meaning you guys. such differing taste and people dont seem so closed in... for instance you dont say i love metal screw ska.
Hiromi is such a talent but beyond that she is really progressing as a teacher/band leader and writer.
still liked dave with screaming headless torsos.
this is screaming headless torsos in their hayday

For some foreign music here are some of my recs.

French. Les Ogres de Barback. Here are a couple of examples.

[video=youtube;dnQQOyhvyQ4]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dnQQOyhvyQ4[/video]

French. Les Petites Bourresttes. I love the song On Rigolera.

[video=youtube;1nKMB0WyH4E]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nKMB0WyH4E[/video]

I also like Têtes Raides. They and Les Ogres perform together a lot I believe. This is one of my favorites.

And if you want Serbian Gypsy music, Šaban Bajramović (Шабан Бајрамовић) is a legend -- probably one of the most influential Roma singers.

Hiromi is such a talent but beyond that she is really progressing as a teacher/band leader and writer.

Man those are great. Esperanza has gotta be one of the most talented people I've seen out there. Maybe that might be the wrong wording, depending on how to define talent, but it just doesn't seem like it would be possible for most people to have such finesse and fluidity with an instrument. The way she sings and plays simultaneously is outrageous.

I think you'll really enjoy this one. It's possibly my favorite song from Dave Matthews, as I don't like most of his other stuff, but something about this one song is fantastic. Seems every jam of it is just special. He's got one with Victor Wooten too.

nice choice don. performances like that lead to jeff coffin being invited to join the band when dave's sax player passed away.

futureman always blows my mind he is in the running for being one of the strangest yet talented guys out there.

also imo esperanza is in the same boat as christian mcbride talent wise. once your that good its hard to argue who is better just becomes a matter of taste.
 
I've been listening to Les Cowboys Fringants all day.

Another French group.

This was our 'code' at my last stateside gig.
When a party was finishing up, my dish crew would put this on and magically cold Coronas and shots of Patron would appear!
:angel2:
 
The original post featured Atmosphere. Is he famous? I didn't realize anyone outside Minneapolis knew who he was.
People should know who he is!
He's got more lyrical talent in his turds than Kanye West has in his entire catalogue.
 
Stuff I've been into lately: Deerhunter, We are Wolves, Kaito, Tame Impala.

Stuff I'm always into: J-Dilla, Lootpack, The Kills, Madlib, Electric Wizard, Mf Doom, The Pixies, Mike Patton projects(Faith No More, Fantomas, Tomahawk, Mr. Bungle, etc.)

There's a sampling of all of the above available on Spotify, btw...
 
Win? But for real, this is good.
