concerts you've been to

[I sever heads]

Nice thread idea, but im with don. I have been to like 2000+ shows in the past 10-15 years it seems impossible to list them all especially with being so fucked up like i used to. Id say some of the festivals like the coachellas, rock the bells, paid dues, warped tours that ive been to are the most memmorable. Also one of the best weekends ever i saw tool and isis like 3rd fuckin row then 2 days later was the mars volta and red hot chilli peppers. Miss that shit and miss shows in general, i dont go to them nearly as much anymore to the people talkin about thrice, i dont mean to make u jealous but seen them at least 20 times mainly back when they were good. lol ok im done typing! I wanna see some lists from other people

damn all you fuckers have been to so many.
i'm so jealous at your list deacon! rage against the machine, nirvana, beastie boys, public enemy, must've been some great concerts.
well, since i haven't been to any festival yet (shame on me), I can't really put down such a big list. I was sposed to go to pinkpop this year (kings of leon, foo fighters, a7x, alterbridge, etc.) but personal life made it impossible
I hope to once be the old fucker to have seen hundreds of shows!
keep on bringing the lists!

@ stevie/boxer - lol. I'm old as fuck and have been going to gigs since I was a kid, so over the years I've seen a lot of bands. when you go to see a big band like RHCP/Greenday etc you tend to get decent support acts, so I often got see a lot of good bands I might not have gone to see on their own. For instance when oasis played Knebworth in the UK, their support acts were: The Charlatans, Kula Shaker, Manic Street Preachers, The Bootleg Beatles, The Chemical Brothers, Ocean Colour Scene and The Prodigy.

oh my I forgot the Prodigy! I saw them at Cambridge Corn Exchange just before they released The Fat of the Land! That was a good fucking show, man how did i forget that one.

Same with Linken Park at Milton Keynes, they were supported by: Inner Party System, Enter shikari, The Bravery (urgh). NERD, Pemdulum and Jay Z.

Fesitvals are a great way to see a lot of good bands, my dad took me to Reading when I was 12 and that was my first ever festival. It was an amazing experience plus i got to see a butt ton of bands. RATM were amazing at Glastonbury, I always wished I'd got to see them a smaller gig though. Maybe one day and I'll get the chance :-)

One of my fav gigs was Alice In Chains Rotten Apple and Would? were highlights of the show IMO.

Speacial mention to Minus The Bear - the were amazing live and was so glad I saw them at a small venue.

Oh and add The Clash and The Sex Pistols to the list of bands "I would like to have seen"
