I hardly ever went to a show that sucked but some of my best memories of shows are:
The Beastie Boys
Green Day
Pearl Jam
Rage against the Machine
and Jane's Addiction

I went to X-fest 2007 and saw tons of bands-- 30STM/The Used headlining. I also worked the Taste of Chaos tour last year so I saw 30 STM, The Used, Aiden, Chiodos, Saosin, Evaline, etc. 5 times.
That's all I can think of right now. I think I'm missing some. Ha.

Ah, I miss the days when I actually had the time to go to concerts.... Single Tear.
I'm jealous of you...you've seen Dredg. I've wanted to for so long but it never works out for me to see them.
If it makes you feel any better they where amazing... wait, that probably doesn't help.
I'm seeing Rush this summer.
I'm driving to Portland to see Elliott Smith's grave.
woohoo... the wife is getting me tickets to DMB in july for our aniversary! And Gomez is opening!
I saw Rush last October in Brimingham Englandand it was one of the best shows I've ever seen. You are in for a treat as I hear they are playing a new set on the next set of dates in the US and Canada. If only I had some spare cash I'd head over but alas not
. The set they played was almost 3 hours long so get there early to avoid dissapointment. Have fun and lets us know what it was like you lucky git
.
Lucky you! I hoping to get tickets to one of their June shows. And word is that Tim will be joining them for most of the tour, so it should be a good one.
Only the gentle are ever really strong.
Blood Brothers was a lot of fun. I'll always remember the date because it was the last day I had health insurance, and the next day my best friend almost killed us in her car. Would not have been fun.
I missed BTBAM and Every time I Die when they were on tour together... and I will never forgive myself for it.
I might be going to see Explosions in the Sky April 12th. The boyfriend wants to go, and hey, what the hell, it's been too long since I've see live music.
Yeah, I had heard TR3 was opening a few shows for them. My favorite shows have always been ones with guest appearances!
It depends on who the guest is. I've seen some guests that I think the band would have been better without, and then others that were fantastic. Now if they would just get Bela to come back for a tour, I can't think of anything better!
Only the gentle are ever really strong.
Festivals is where its at! Such as Coachella! I also like a good concert I can dance at, like maybe an easy 3 step like Reel Big Fish or some other ska (thought I dont listen to much of it)

I got the cute one, my woman
She says, "Lovin's all I bring"
And it's her loving that's a wonderful thing.
Lovin' yes we are, it's such a wonderful thing
When two fit it makes you think
See us both in the black
She lays on me so relaxed.

I speak only from my experiences - Trey Anastasio, Bela Fleck, Warren Haynes, and Robert Randolph... RR is absolutely amazing!
I've yet to see him with the band, but I've heard good stuff. I got to see Trey last year which was amazing, and Bela back in '99 but didn't really know too much about him then, so didn't fully appreciate it. But I saw Rashawn at his first performance with the band, and Toots guesting last year, and could have done without both of them.

Nightwish last night in Dublin. Excellent gig, great sound, great preformance from the band and Vicar Street is a brilliant venue for a gig.
The Counting Crows were playing locally tonight, so I went to the show.
I really only know their various radio hits and they aren't really what I usually listen to, but it was a pretty good show. I'm glad to see they don't just play the studio versions of their songs.
The singer mentioned that a few of the songs they played hadn't been done live in several years. He had good interaction with the crowd too. Several times it was like an episode of Storytellers with him talking about what the song meant, etc.
They had to stop the show suddenly at one point because a fan up front either collapsed or was having a heart attack. Paramedics got to him and took him out after a few minutes. Seemed like he would be alright.
When the band started up again, they didn't just restart the song they had been playing. The picked up in the middle of the song, right where they had left off. Thought that was kind of funny.
Adam Duritz is a very talented songwriter. Its cool that you got to see them.
Now thats what I call a good tight live band. 8)
I randomly check ticketmaster to see if the Counting Crows are back on tour. I am always disappointed.
Not today though!
August 30th, Riverbend Music Center, Cincinnati.
I am Daenerys Stormborn and I will take what is mine. With fire and blood.
I've scored tickets to Eddie Izzard's Stripped tour in May and another version of A Midsummer Night's Dream by the same guy who did the production I saw in 9th grade. However, he's turned it into a post-9/11 thing with more of a punk rock look. The first one was modernized and it was awesome, and it looks like this version is going to be just as cool as before.
you're solid gold // i'll see you in hell
I'm craving a really good live show....have been for a while, but no one good ever comes around.
And I'm still bitter that my favorite music venue was torn down a few years ago.
Bastards!(shakes fist)
