Reconnecting with Music -- check it out LIVE

I'm not sure about you, but my life seems to be surrounded by music. I am by no means a music guy - can't play an instrument, can't sing etc.. There are people that are way more into it. But, I am a huge fan. I usually have an ipod or headphones connected to itunes, online radio, pandora as well as a list of others. When I am in the car or not in my office - I am streaming XM. Even after all of that, I still get bored and want more. Here are some of my favorites..

Live Music

PHISH
Counting Crows
Grateful Dead

Internet Radio

WXPN - Philly - awesome NPR station based out of U of Penn
Y-Rock - old school alternative rock station- internet only
Pandora - customizable Internet radio;really cool

Satellite Radio

XM

I have been on a big kick lately of listening to live music. My wife and I just saw Counting Crows at the Borgata casino in August. Awesome show in a really small setting. Hard to commit to going to shows live, but there are alternatives. There are a host of ways to grab some live music - either via itunes, amazon, band websites, my space - whatever. Go out there and see what's playing, the selection is endless.
