Concerts

What was the best concert you've ever attended? Or your best 3 to make it a lil easier!

Mine are:

Mayhem at the Whiskey a go-go.

Iron Maiden, Brave New Wold tour ... Saw them 3 times in 1 week! God I was deaf after that third show! Haha.

Arch Enemy, Hate Eternal, Origin and Nile at the Key Club.

Rob Zombie/Korn for Rock and Garth Brooks for Country ;)...ha...I love music.

I saw the Yeah Yeah Yeahs on Saturday.
It would rank amongst my favorites.

U2, Vertigo Tour, LA, Nov 05 (Larry's birthday)

concerts I wish I could have attended:
Live Aid, London, 1985
Queen, It's a Kind of Magic Tour, Wembley, 1986

311 Day 2004 in New Orleans

6 hours, 64 songs, amazing.

Best: Dave Matthews Band Central Park Concert. 100,000 people in NYCs Central Park losing their minds!

Honorable Mention: Summer Sanitarium (Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit, Metallica) at Giants Stadium, Blink 182/Green Day at MSG, Dave Matthews Band at MSG when James Brown came out to sing on Sex Machine, Art Alexakis from Everclear doing a solo, acoustic show for 100 people in NYC.

So many more!!

Opeth/DevilDriver - Columbus OH 2004

Opeth/Dark Tranquility - Pittsburgh PA 2006

Slayer @ Warner Theatre in DC 1987

Voivod/Soundgarden/Faith No More @ The Bayou in DC(the night Mayor Barry got busted for crack)


Opeth is jawdropping live - no theatrics at all to speak of just radiant talent and tightness in execution.

The tightest band I've ever seen was Shadows Fall. They were a last minute opener for Arch Enemy at the second show they played in California. They TOTALLY blew Arch Enemy off the stage! I still wish I could have seen Faith No More back in the day. I missed a chance to see Mr. Bungle too :(

I've seen alot of great concerts, but the best was probably when I saw Stevie Ray Vaughan back in '87 from the front row of the Follenger Auditorium in Champaign/Urbana.

<-- Awesome stuff - Patton is the man.

Peeping Tom should appease your Bungle-jones (in a California kinda way). Of course most stuff he does is gold - Tomahawk etc. I heard he was touring with Amon Tobin recently - THAT would have been a killer set.
