Post image for YEAR IN REVIEW: Artists Share 2011 Live Music Highlights
For whatever reason, in music, as is the case in just about any other line of work, some days don’t glue themselves to the long term memory bank like the others. However, on any given night, certain indescribable circumstances can converge, lightning-and-a-bottle can be captured, magic can happen, and an unforgettable live music experience is forged deep into the hippocampus for both the fans and artists themselves. These are the concerts, life events, and peak professional moments we hoped to capture in this feature by asking a few standard questions about the year in music to some of our favorite artists.

Post image for @LMBNOLA: The Head and the Heart @ One Eyed Jacks 9/20/11
After setting a nice tone on Sunday in Austin before a sizeable crowd, The Head and the Heart routed on through the Crescent City on Tuesday night for a stop at One Eyed Jacks in support of their excellent self-titled album out on the legendary imprint Sub Pop Records. Julia Pretus was in the dimly-lit and slinky club to snap a gallery of shots of these Pacific Northwesterners. If you put your ear close enough to the computer screen, you can almost hear the placid, gospel harmonies. Go ahead and do it, we won't judge. Now move along lil' darlins - run along below and check out the gallery.

When @LMBNOLA editor Wes got his new camera and started throwing together animated gifs from the shows he had been seeing, I was immediately hooked.

Behold…here’s a collection of photos from 2011 in animated GIF format. It’s hard to portray how much fun a festival can really be, but I think this does it about the best I can do. We’ve got some action from , , , Kanye and more.

Austin City Limits served as the ultimate break from the status quo, an ephemeral voyage to a utopia far removed from normative daily life, embedded in the heart of one America’s most interesting cities. Also, the extended weekend was a long overdue first trip to Austin, TX for me personally, and I immediately became enamored [...]

@LMBNOLA: ACL @ Nite – Sunday Evening in Zilker Park From Above

One of the best parts of both C3 juggernaut festivals (Lollapalooza and Austin City Limits) is the fact that they both take place in beautiful city parks within striking distance of the Chicago and Austin downtown areas. This is great both (a) because it makes for easy access to all the great things the respective cities have to offer outside Grant and Zilker parks and (b) the nighttime skyline views behind the main stages are absolutely killer while watching a set from a band like Arcade Fire or Jane’s Addiction (who closed it down at Lolla ’09 w/ helicopters flying above) play to a crowd of 50,000+. On Sunday night, we got an interesting/unique overhead perspective of Zilker and the masses below.
