Best live shows I saw in NYC / 2012

All the year end lists are coming out and I feel compelled to read them even though they usually annoy me. And let's not even get into this year's Oscar films, underwhelmed is an understatement. My tune will probably change as I start to see more of them which I oddly feel is an assignment I must complete once January rolls around. For now though here are my favorite live shows I saw in NYC* last year. I am no critic, I missed some that I'd really wanted to see and I was out of town a lot, but I did see enough and variety of such to merit a favorites list, and these were them...

Purity Ring at Music Hall of Williamsburg
The Big Meal at Playwrights Horizons
Motel Cherry, Clubbed Thumb at HERE Arts Center
Questlove's Shuffle Culture at BAM
Vanya, Sonia, Masha and Spike at Lincoln Center


*This list does not include any of the wonderful shows I saw in LA. *just music and theatre bc those are my favs
