Various Artists - "Our Band Could Be Your Life Tribute" - Live @ Bowery Ballroom, New York, USA, 22-05-2011

NOTE: 13 seminal bands of the past covered by 14 groups of the present. That was the scene at the Bowery Ballroom, in celebration of the 10th anniversary of Michael Azerrad’s must-read book, "Our Band Could Be Your Life: Scenes from the American Indie Underground 1981-1991", hosted by comedians Eugene Mirman and Janeane Garofalo, both of whom stayed out of the way for the majority of the evening. Over a dozen current indie bands were on the bill, performing songs from the likes of Sonic Youth and the Replacements and the Minutemen and Husker Du and so many of mine, your, our favorite artists of all-time.

A must have!
