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

So far this year I've seen Alejandro Escovedo 7 times, and am hoping for a couple more shows in December.
In previous years, 16 Horsepower, Chris Whitley, The Soft Boys, The Tragically Hip, The Jesus Lizard, and Thin White Rope were bands that I saw multiple times a year.
