In the early 2000’s, one of my favorite punk bands was Tsunami Bomb. I followed them up and down the West Coast, going to a ton of shows and meeting a lot of cool people in the process. They went on hiatus in 2005. In 2009, the had a reunion show up here in the Bay Area, so I went and took a number of photos.

(Interestingly, they reformed again in 2015 with a slightly different lineup… and I sadly haven’t gone to see them live yet).

Anyway, they recently had an Instagram post celebrating their anniversary and posted one of my photos. Nice!

It was a pretty awesome show. A few more photos…

It’s hard to believe that I’ve been sending music data to Last.fm for nearly 15 years! Because of this, we can start doing some crazy things… like compiling a list of all top artists I listened to over this entire decade.

From 2010 to 2019, the list is:

1. Bob Dylan
2. Hot Water Music
3. Johnny Cash
4. State Radio
5. Dispatch
6. Daft Punk
7. Chuck Ragan
8. The Glitch Mob
9. Bad Religion
10. Frank Turner
11. Aesop Rock
12. DJ Shadow
13. Manu Chao
14. ait-J
15. Widespread Panic

Saw them tonight at the UC Theater in Berkeley. They rank up there as one of my favorite bands of all time.
