We here at Breakfast On Tour are decidedly fanatical about music, and as a result we've spent a large portion of our adult lives bobbing our heads in front of stages. This past year, though, was hands-down our busiest (so far) in terms of show-going. It's sort of mind-boggling to think back on all the great sets we caught, and when we decided to list our favorites of the year we knew it'd be a daunting task. After much head-scratching and brow-furrowing, though, we persevered – check out Eggs, Cereal and Toast's top 20 shows of the year after the jump!

It has been an incredibly amazing and diverse first half of the year musically for Breakfast On Tour, and - primarily for our reference, we admit - we decided to round up our favorites so far. Our lists will undoubtedly be filled with many of the face-melting festival sets we've seen at both Wakarusa and Rothbury, as well as the great shows that have come through Texas, Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri, Iowa and beyond. 2008 is shaping up to be the greatest year of our collective live show experiences...and it's only July!
