2024 turned out to be an incredible concert going year for me in that I got to see four of my five favorite artists (and I would have been five for five if Massive Attack hadn’t canceled their US tour!) along with a legacy act that had been dying to see one last time. plus a few other special shows sprinkled in here and there.
A quick public service announcement before I get to my list. 30% of this list comes from shows outside the D.C. area. Road trips are the best! Go see your favorite bands as many times as you can! Go see them in unfamiliar surroundings! You won’t regret it. Unless you’re traveling to see Morrissey.
