Seeing my favorite artists live in a full band setting is obviously one of life’s great thrills – Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band, Steve Earle & the Dukes, Los Lobos, Wilco… But just as thrilling for me is witnessing more intimate showcases: the solo acoustic show.

Match ANY of the following conditions
NAME contains Halloween
NAME contains Trick
NAME contains Treat
NAME contains Haunt

I remember Beavis & Butthead taking this one to pieces back in the day. I miss them, even if they didn’t know good music if it bit them on the ass.
