======  2009  ======

I didn't start trying to keep setlists for every show I attended until 2013, but starting in 2003 I *did* keep track of the individual shows, so without further comment, here is the list of interesting events I witnessed in 2009. I know I stashed away about a file box per year of ephemera, so in time, *some* of these events might gain setlists, but don't hold your breath waiting!
