I forgot to add this one. I went and saw Korpiklaani, Tyr, Swashbuckle, and White Wizard back in January. Ive got tix to go see Cannibal Corpse and Skeletonwitch on Apr. 22. Im also going to see Amon Amarth(4th time) and Tyr(4th time) on Apr. 27.

[Old Moparz]

I can add another show to my list, but it was a band I had seen several times already.......YES

They still put on a great show considering they aren't youngsters anymore. Chris Squire on bass, Steve Howe on guitar, Alan White on drums, Oliver Wakeman on keyboards, & Benoit David on vocals. I wasn't planning to go see them, but they were in a small theater in NYC called The Town Hall & the singer sounded EXACTLY like Jon Anderson. Anderson was sick a while back & Chris Squire found the new guy on Youtube playing up in Montreal in a YES cover band. It was a chance to take my daughter to see another concert, so my wife & I bought 3 tickets that were a bargain by some of today's ticket prices at $40 each.

It's fun taking our daughter Kate, who's 10, to concerts. She loves music & to give her a chance to get a head start at seeing live shows is a good idea. I'd rather have her with me & my wife then with some friends getting lost for her first concerts. She's now seen......

Bill Monroe
Allison Krauss
Peter Rowan
Tony Rice
Nine Inch Nails (2x)  
Saul Williams
Bauhaus
Little Sammy Davis
James Cotton
Bill Frisell
YES

And she's going with us to see Jeff Beck in June

There is a bunch more. Cotton Bowl Jam in 78. Too Many Bean Blossom boogies to count, a thousand garage bands. Sturgis a few years. Fla for a few more.


The piece de resistance`: I was at the show when Ozzie quit Black Sabbath. Indianapolis, The Convention Center. VanHalen opened, and rocked.

Sabbath came out and played......it wasn't pretty. About half way through Oz proclaimed he would never again play with a bunch of geriatric sonsofbitches and threw the mic down and walked off

I had tickets to a show in 1977 that was canceled. Lynyrd Skynyrd. I still have my "flames" cover street survivors in cellophane, never played. I might just take that one to the grave with me.

I can add Clapton and Beck in Montreal last month.

I saw them in Toronto - I still can't believe the job they did with Moon River! Lifelong fans of both - going back to the Yardbirds days. Clapton, then Beck then Paige and Beck and then just Paige. Do you remember what Zep was called before Keith Moon kinda gave them their name?

I'd seen EC more times that I can count but had never seen Beck. He blew me away on his set. Day in the Life was amazing. My wife sings opera and was stunned when he finished with Nessun Dorma from Puccini.

Clapton said years ago, with Jeff , it's all in his hands. A guitarists guitarist. He has been doing Day in the life for a few years now but I never get tired of it!

The apple doesn't fall far the tree does it son? Nicely done - The New Yardbirds is correct! Blow Up - Beck kicked the crap out of his equipment during the song because it was acting up.

[moparstuart]

 Zep is my favorite band ever  but clapton and beck are great .   Hendrix , floyd , rush , deep purple  are my cruising music .

Good picks - I agree. Try finding some Roy Buchanon - Paige and Beck called him the best unknown guitarist in the world.

Awesome! Id love to see the Faith No More show. Danzig, Iced Earth, W.A.S.P, DIO, Motorhead, Megadeth, and Exodus are some of the bands on the top of my list to go see. Pantera was on top but it dont look like thats happening any time soon.

[miller]

Besides the local shows (Jason Alden i believe was at one of them) I have went to a Death Cab for Cutie featuring Cold War Kids and Ra-ra-riot, and Blink 182 reunion tour featuring Panic at the Disco Fall out boy and Chestire French. Brooks and Dunn in the early 2000s. Not an impressive record I know, but I don't usually go to concerts.

Well - If we are talking about all the bands I have ever seen it would be a long list. As far as your faves - Led Zep, Hendrix, Pink Floyd, Rush, Deep Purple - I have seen all of them live. Rush is a "Local" band to us...I have even seen them in my High School.

[C_stripes]

I got to meet Jet the other night. That was pretty cool. Me and one of my lady friends got to go to the pre concert show. There were the two of us and crew. It was like we had our own privet show for a little wile. The band manager took the following pic.

The crash kinds were way good too
