  • The Twenty Greatest Music Concerts I've Ever Seen
    THE TWENTY GREATEST MUSIC CONCERTS I'VE EVER SEEN Whew, I'm done. Let me remind everyone how this worked. I would go through my Ipod in that weird Ipod alphabetical order and when I would come upon an artist that I have seen live, I would replay that concert in my head. (BTW, since this segment started I no longer even have an ipod. All my music is on my laptop and phone now.) The number you see at the end of the concert description is the number of times I have seen that artist live. If it was multiple times, I would do my best to describe the one concert that I considered to be their best. If no number appears, it means I only saw that artist once. Mind you, I have seen many artists live that I do not have a song by on my Ipod. That artist is not represented here. So although the final number of concerts I have seen came to 828 concerts (wow, 828!), the number is actually higher. And there are "bar" bands and artists (like LeCompt and Sam Butera, for example) where I have seen them perform hundreds of sets, but I counted those as "one," although I have seen Lecompt in "concert" also. Any show you see with the four stars (****) means they came damn close to being one of the Top Twenty, but they fell just short. So here's the Twenty. Enjoy and thanks so much for all of your input. And don't sue me if I have a date wrong here and there.

It is because of his mesothelioma diagnosis almost four years ago, that ADAO was founded. Prior to Alan’s diagnosis, he was a successful regional manager for an IT consulting company, skied black diamond runs, climbed Half Dome and even ran NY and LA marathons. Alan was a valiant and selfless leader who, with dignity and compassion, gave enormous strength to those suffering from asbestos disease, and spoke extensively about the need for prevention, education and research to create a future where asbestos no longer needlessly takes lives. Alan knew first hand, that hope was medicine that every patient needed. Alan was diagnosed with mesothelioma at age 63, on the day after Father’s Day in 2003, with mesothelioma, an incurable cancer caused by inhaling perhaps a single fiber of asbestos up to 50 years ago. In July 2003, Alan chose the radical Extrapleural Pneumonectomy (EPP) which involved the removal of his lung, pleura, pericardium, and diaphragm as a ‘treatment’. This surgery is one of the most horrific surgeries that a person can undergo. In May 2005 Alan was diagnosed with a reoccurrence.
