Favorite In-studio: Killer Mike. We laughed, we cried, we talked about our deceased moms and grandmothers, and we got to know the real Michael. His performance featured a small choir that sounded like an ensemble of angels.
Favorite Concert: Feist at First Ave on May 3 in support of Multitudes. It was a one-of-a-kind experience, with Feist performing an acoustic, "in the round" set with an intimate, unique and quirky multimedia experience and performance art vibe, at times. The 2nd half of the show was a surprise, curtain dropped, full band on the main stage.
