[NEWS] New York Times chooses BIGBANG & 2NE1 for Best Concerts of 2012! (121227)

| Friday, December 28

2NE1 & BIGBANG makes New York Times: “The Best Concerts of 2012, as Seen by Times Critics”

A concert is always more than just a rendering of songs. It’s a musical revamp, a real-time test, a spectacle, a pop-up community, perhaps a dance party or an incipient riot — and, even in the YouTube era, an ephemeral, site-specific experience. Here the pop and jazz critics of The New York Times recall some of their favorite live events of 2012, in order of importance. [JON PARELES]


2NE1 Aug. 17, and BIGBANG Nov. 8, both at Prudential Center, Newark. This was the year K-pop arrived — not in the form of “Gangnam Style,” which was everywhere and yet completely evanescent — but in these arena shows, which were full of thousands of young, paying fans eager to see the girls of 2NE1 and the boys of Big Bang, groups with zero American hits between them, but rabid American followings all the same.
