For the last few years I've dreamed of going to at least one night of KROQ's annual Almost Acoustic Christmas concert. Year after year KROQ puts together a fantastic lineup of bands over two nights (which takes place this weekend, December 10th & 11th). Tickets end up costing about $92(!) each after Ticketmaster fees, but it's hard to argue the price for what you're getting in return. Plus, the fact that tickets literally sell out in minutes each for each night speaks for itself.
Almost every year it's taken place at the Gibson Amphitheatre in Universal City, which only contains 6,189 for concerts. So you not only get to see an all-star lineup of bands, but also get to do so in a relatively intimate venue where there's hardly any bad seats.
If I had to pick between either night this year, though it is a tough choice, I would have to go with Night 2, though it is a hard choice. In the end, I just can't pass up seeing The Black Keys. They're always so much fun to watch.
