Here is the wrap-up for last month: December 2015.
Largest Show Award goes to the Rhymesayers 20 at
Target Center (12/04).
Featuring a million Rhymesayers acts, this was an unbelievable show for all ages.
New Tradition Award goes to Go96's Snow Show! Featuring Silversun Pickups, Metric, The Wombats and Melanie Martinez for the first night and
Death Cab for Cutie, Best Coast and Panic is Perfect for the second night. We love it look forward to again next December. Read about Night #1: Go96's Snow Show Night 1 (12/03).
Legendary Award goes shock rocker Alice Cooper at State Theatre (12/06). The way he dances and sings, you'd never know he's nearly 68 years old!
Christmas Award goes Johnnyswim at Varsity Theater (12/08). Christmas only comes around once a year, and this couple absolutely love the holiday spirit.
Most Memorable Show goes to The 1975 at at First Ave (12/10). We've see the band at least five times, but this was probably our favorite. They're on the very cusp of arena shows, and a good indication was when we got out of the venue – there were bootleg T-Shirt sellers! That's unheard of for a "club" size band.
As expected, with "the great Winter Hibernation", our show coverages have gone drastically down in December (and possibly equally worst in January and February). That's not new, if you look over our year-end summary, this is typical.
December is the worst, because basically the last week are holidays (Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year's Eve, etc.)…
