I saw Devotchka four times in an 11 month period, though it stretched across two calendar years.

interesting - i can't think of a band, other than a friend's bar-band in college, that i've seen more than twice a year.  i *might* have seen coldplay 3 times in a 12-month period, maybe (HFStival/Nissan/MCI... was that within 12?)
 
 yet another manifestation of my ADD
