I haven't seen to many real shows. I've seen a ton of bands play when I worked in a bar, but most of them were no names that suck.

Chimaira and Ill Nino were awesome shows.
Machine Head put on a pretty good show too.

I'm going to the Bud Bowl on the 2nd though, hopefully that's cool. Not the biggest fan of Kid Rock, but he breaks out some good tunes every now and then.

LauraLee · 01-25-2008, 10:31 AM

1) Grateful Dead
2) 311
3) U2
4) Lenny Kravitz
5) Korn

Some of the best talent comes from local bands. The first time I saw Foo Fighters was at a Sony Music party in California. They gave a private performance for about 400 people and it was the best I have ever seen.

Others I have seen that were very good:

Staind--but he makes you almost suicidal
Justin Timberlake with Pink(I was given VIP stage tickets so the bar I was sitting at was used as the stage they performed on).
Metallica-- pure insanity
Smashing Pumpkins

OHHH! I almost forgot...Beastie Boys with Cypress Hill opening (Check Your Head tour)

Always wanted to see Red Hot Chili Peppers but never got a chance. However, I did have a strange encounter with Flea outside a bar in LA. I was on my cell sitting on the sidewalk and I look up because this guy was just standing in front of me looking like he was ready to take a pee on me. I smiled at him, he smiled back and then just stood there for about a minute..then he walked away. Strange but memorable.

Metallica on their Ride The Lightning tour played the Concert Hall in Toronto ('85? '86?), opening for WASP and some other, forgettable band. Metallica was still pretty much unknown then and the stage show was not much more than a hanging lightbulb. But everyone was there to see them.

The place was small, smoky and with about 1200 headbangers in the audience, they tore the place down for 45 minutes. So much so, that WASP (who were terrible, I don't know why anyone stayed) were all but booed of the stage.

Now THAT was a rock concert.

(After that, there really was no #2)

Rand · 01-25-2008, 11:38 AM

Sorry, my list had to be at least seven. I could go on but the top are:

Pink Floyd - Division Bell Tour and Momentary Lapse Tour

U2 - Pop Mart Tour

Daft Punk

David Bowie - Reality Tour

Michael Jackson - Victory Tour

PRINCE - 3121 @ The Rio

Elvis Presley

BEST ACOUSTIC - "The Bridge" concerts (sponsored for over 20 years by Neil Young) feature an amazing array of artists all playing un-plugged.

These annual shows in the Bay Area raise money for The Bridge School, an educational program dedicated to ensuring that children with severe speech and physical impairments achieve full participation in their communities.

The Bridge School has some past performances available on iTunes:

Check out this website for the listings of artists over the years.

Which reminded me, I was at the Neil Young and Crazy Horse "Live Rust" shows, which were made into both a double album and a movie...

PaygeaGrl · 01-25-2008, 11:44 AM

that was on my "before i die" list too. saw them in NYC last summer. FUCKING AMAZING!!!

CarlosTheGaucho · 01-25-2008, 03:12 PM

Some interesting input in here!

An incomplete list of concert acts I attended in the past years (I am sure I will forget some and I will name only more of Rock n Blues acts):

Jethro Tull (the sound sucked but the band is great!)

B.B. King (that was massive - history revealed!)

John Mayall and the bluesbreakers (felt it to be a bit too proffesor playing..)

Black Sabbath with Ozzy (he ROCKED an there was no shaking corpse on the stage)

Black Sabbath with Ronnie James Dio (Never thought I will see them together - nearly killed me!)

Dio (Warsaw - went 500 miles there and back - Holy Diver tour 2005 and a superb concert!)

Yngwie Malmsteen (very surprised - incredible !)

Ten Years After (surprised me the most - fantastic performance!)

Eric Clapton (with Robert Cray - well nothing but a great show although the sound sucked )

Johnny Winter (too bad he wasn't in the best shape but I often remember that)

Lou Reed (put on 150 pct. to warm up the cold crowd)

Glenn Hughes (a bit too polished)

Tool (that was a massive display of playin skills an killing atmosphere)

Velvet Revolver (as I am a massive fan of G'n'R I was a bit dissapointed, the only song that really kicked ass was "It's so Easy" a G'n'R classic)

Desperately missing and wanted:

ZZ Top
Van Halen
AC DC
Deep Purple
Zeppelin

Worst concert I have ever seen:

Manowar (not that I would ever be a fan but they were a part of a certain festival)

Best Revival I have seen:

Judas Priest Revival Prague - they kick serious ass and look like the 1982 Screaming for Vengeance line up!

Glenn Tipton is our interior designer by the way.

Trixie · 01-25-2008, 05:45 PM

I don't get out much, so one of the coolest performances I have ever seen was Leon Redbone; he whistled a whole song and it was AMAZING.

Chris Isaak is a great old-fashioned entertainer and I got to dance on stage at one of his concerts (with a lot of other people, not solo on a pole or anything).

Southern Culture on the Skids was cool too because I got to throw fried chicken at people from the stage.

Worst concert ever was a Depeche Mode concert I only went to because my ex-girlfriend invited me and I thought I would get laid. Didn't get laid, and while I like DM, that kind of music is completely USELESS live.

captain.g · 01-25-2008, 05:51 PM

1. Slayer
2. Korn and White Zombie
3. Primus
4. System of a Down
4. 8Ball

Velvet Revolver kind of sucked if I would take Guns into consideration and as for Jane's I have at least bought me the "Three Days" DVD recently, haven't got a chance to screen that yet though.

Next concert - this wednesday - "The Smashing Pumpkins" was a super fan of them especially on the high school.

Jimmy Chamberlain actually put on an interesting solo album during their hysteric break up time and I am sure Zwan is also a very listenable thing for all the massive fans.

'86?), opening for WASP and some other, forgettable band. Metallica was still pretty much unknown then and the stage show was not much more than a hanging lightbulb. But everyone was there to see them. The place was small, smoky and with about 1200 headbangers in the audience, they tore the place down for 45 minutes. So much so, that WASP (who were terrible, I don't know why anyone stayed) were all but booed of the stage. Now THAT was a rock concert. (After that, there really was no #2)

These annual shows in the Bay Area raise money for The Bridge School, an educational program dedicated to ensuring that children with severe speech and physical impairments achieve full participation in their communities. The Bridge School has some past performances available on iTunes: http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/M...94388&s=143441 Check out this website for the listings of artists over the years. Which reminded me, I was at the Neil Young and Crazy Horse "Live Rust" shows, which were made into both a double album and a movie...

CarlosTheGaucho Confirmed User Industry Role: Join Date: Oct 2005 Posts: 9,516	Some interesting input in here! An incomplete list of concert acts I attended in the past years (I am sure I will forget some and I will name only more of Rock n Blues acts): Jethro Tull (the sound sucked but the band is great!) B.B. King (that was massive - history revealed!) John Mayall and the bluesbreakers (felt it to be a bit too proffesor playing..) Black Sabbath with Ozzy (he ROCKED an there was no shaking corpse on the stage) Black Sabbath with Ronnie James Dio (Never thought I will see them together - nearly killed me!) Dio (Warsaw - went 500 miles there and back - Holy Diver tour 2005 and a superb concert!) Yngwie Malmsteen (very surprised - incredible !) Ten Years After (surprised me the most - fantastic performance!) Eric Clapton (with Robert Cray - well nothing but a great show although the sound sucked ) Johnny Winter (too bad he wasn't in the best shape but I often remember that) Lou Reed (put on 150 pct. to warm up the cold crowd) Glenn Hughes (a bit too polished) Tool (that was a massive display of playin skills an killing atmosphere) Velvet Revolver (as I am a massive fan of G'n'R I was a bit dissapointed, the only song that really kicked ass was "It's so Easy" a G'n'R classic) Desperately missing and wanted: ZZ Top Van Halen AC DC Deep Purple Zeppelin Worst concert I have ever seen: Manowar (not that I would ever be a fan but they were a part of a certain festival) Best Revival I have seen: Judas Priest Revival Prague - they kick serious ass and look like the 1982 Screaming for Vengeance line up! Glenn Tipton is our interior designer by the way. __________________ CTG Media \| TG: carl_boro \| cb \|at\| ctgmedia \|dot\| net \| Read My Educational Series \| Read my Adult Biz Chronicles\| Last edited by CarlosTheGaucho; 01-25-2008 at 03:14 PM..
