I've seen the Supersuckers probably about 30-40 times. Goo Goo Dolls about 30 times. Rocket From the Crypt about 50 times. The Rugburns/Steve Poltz about 150 times (at least).

No. It was later on when she did a tour with Dylan. We got to see her angry side when she ripped into some people up front who were talking and distracting her. She dropped quite a few F-Bombs down on them.

[Giantrobo]

I'm too lazy to post all the shows I've seen so I'll post some of the best and worst:

Best:

Bjork...Vespertine tour AWESOME show
Rolling Stones...I for get which tour ut it rocked
AC/DC...always good
Rush...always good
KISS Reunion tour '96
Motorhead...LEGENDARY
Prince...great performer
Stevie Ray Vaughn...great show and it was just a few months before he died.
Slayer...always great shows even when attending with Evil Slayer fans.
David Bowie...LEGENDARY

Worst:

RATT...Boring as hell. I got the ticket for free and it still sucked. I was kinda shocked because I expected the show to rock.

Guns & Roses...Boring boring boring. FOr soem reason Ax-hole seemed to wann jsut play mellow shit. I wated to ROCK!!!

Smashing Pumpkins...another boring ass show. I didn't like them anyway so seeing the boring show didn't help.

I'm guessing you're a fan then? I'm not too up on them, but I did get Steve Poltz's solo album, and wasn't too impressed by it. Actually, I couldn't even tell you a song off of it anymore (I think I listened to it once).

[Vryce]

I haven't seen a ton of concerts.

I have seen:

- Lilith Fair x2 - Went two different years
- Alanis Morissette - Opener Garbage
- Smashing Pumpkins - Sort of. I worked security at the venue they played at and heard them.
- Jonatha Brooke x2
- U2 - Zoo TV tour, first leg
- MIdnight Oil - Openers Hot House Flowers & I want to say Ziggy Marley but probably not. It was a Regge group.
- Michael Jackson - Jackson 5 Reunion Tour( I was young and my aunt took me)
- Sarah McLachlan - Opener Butterfly Boucher

I think that is all the concerts I have been to.

Which solo album? He has about 3-4 of them! A new one on the way too!

Good thing about Poltz/Rugburns: every show is different. Always interesting. No two shows have ever been the same.

See, I told you I didn't know much... let's see, I've got "One Left Shoe". That's cool about the concerts though.. I've always wondered why more people don't vary it up more. If I had to play the same songs for 20 years I'd be fairly tired of them!
