Some of these huge lists make my head spin! I've been to two concerts: Mighty Mighty Bosstones in '97 and Boris this past summer. No one tours up in this area.
If there's anything I regret, it's missing Catherine Wheel when they toured for Adam & Eve. What I wouldn't give... |

In 2005, I was diagnosed with Crohn's disease, and it's hard to go to shows. First off, it's hard to spend that kind of money and not know if I'm going to actually be able to go to the show. Secondly, it's hard to go to large shows with big crowds because of the bathroom issue. Also, if for any reason anyone is interested, I actually have set lists for many of the shows listed here (though not all of them). |

Since my last update:
Girl Talk Kavinsky Konono N°1 The Kooks (2x) Holy Fuck (2x) M.I.A. Quentin Stoltfuz Super Furry Animals I also saw Radiohead, Coldplay, and the Pogues again. The Pogues are, without a doubt, the finest live band I have ever seen. And that's considering at their first show I went to, I wasn't even a huge fan of their music. |

Not exhaustive list and not in any perticular order:
The Faint X2 - I am actually going to see them for my b-day present on the 19th of this month. They are by far the best live band I have ever seen. Stavescacre Roadside Monument Pedro the Lion The Cure Depeche Mode R.E.M. Smashing Pumpkins Reel Big Fish X 3 times in H.S. Extol Concrete Blonde They Might Be Giants The Scoflaws Less Than Jake Cracker Third Eye Blinde (free show) Vertical Horizon Verve Pipe Counting Crows Creed (what an error) 3 Doors Down (free show) Vans warped tour in H.S. where Pennywise and Social Distortion headlined numerous local punk and ska shows in H.S. edit to add Beck during the Odeley tour. That man danced his butt off.

I go back to the comparison I made earlier to slavery. Slavery existed because it was commercially viable and there were those that justified it using circular logic (i.e. slavery was OK because people wanted to keep slaves). It was only when men of moral character started standing up to the slave traders/owners that the wheels were set in motion for the abolition of slavery. I draw a parallel to straight porn. - art |

This is going back 10 or so years, but I think he did a decent job. He was touring in support of "Simon Says" and Internal Affairs. The only things that I really remember: it was a really short show and he wore a miner's helmet w/ a light on it.
![]() Rampage opened the show and I clearly remember him sucking big time. But I didn't expect otherwise. A ridiculously large amount of guys on the stage, obscuring the main MC (who is constantly shouting "turn up the monitors"), does not a good show make.

Re: Who have you seen in concert?
This is wild considering (IMHO) we have some very overlapping music tastes. A lot of bands are really cool live.
