Best wishes in this first weekend of the new year. Many recent Gotham blogs looked ahead and share resolutions and predictions for this year. Instead, I continue practice to share a list compiled and commentary posted to my website on the top ten shows I attended in the year just ended. Hope you find the list --

1) John Fogerty and ZZ Top

2) The Richie Furay Band performs POCO DeLIVErin’

3) Jeff Beck, Paul Rodgers, Ann Wilson

4) Glenn Tilbrook

5) The Eagles

6) Rod Stewart

7) Roger McGuinn & Chris Hillman Byrds’ Sweetheart of the Rodeo 50th Anniversary

8) Peter Frampton and Steve Miller

9) Jim Messina

10) Bob Weir and Phil Lesh

– of interest.

Generally, I get it done and posted, sometimes with typos I correct later, just before we go out to celebrate with friends. I later blog about it in summary form here as done last year.

While I started Corey's Top 10 2018 Concerts last year a number of reasons delayed its completion until New Year’s Day.

The source of its delay until the new year: I blogged here – yup on this Gotham Sunday Blog – on many of the shows (See the hyperlinks on the links above for those “reviews”.). I even blogged in this space about a number of nice shows that did not make the list including

• Glen Burtnik’s Summer of Love,
• Dave Mason Band and Richie Furay Band,
• Felix Cavaliere and Gene Cornish’s Rascals featuring Carmine Appice,
• Desperate Measures and
• Niall Horan and Maren Morrison.

So check out my review(s) and share your views in the comments below and/ or share your own highlights.

Here’s to a musical 2019. Already booked some shows and perhaps some (all) merit their own blog.
