I couldn't find a general concert thread here soooo...

Who ya gonna see?

Who have ya seen?

Who ya wanna see?

Where'd ya see 'em?

What were the highlights?

I just recently saw Tool. I've been a fan for years but this was my first time seeing them live. I have seen A Perfect Circle live, but I digress.

Tool was awesome. They had their sound dialed and played flawlessly. The stage was trippy... basically the whole thing was a monitor playing weird scenes and images or flashing them rapidly. I'm surprised they can play up there without having a seizure. Actually, I'm surprised no one in the audience had a seizure.

If you're a Tool fan, here's the set list...

Stinkfist
The pot
46 and 2
Jambi
Schism
Lost keys
Rosetta Stone
Opiate
Sober
Lateralus
Vicarious
Aenema

I've not been to a concert in years either.... and i think the last one I was to was Tim McGraw and Faith Hill or Garth Brooks. Ah, certainly not the same genre as Tool

U2 18 Nov in Melbourne Aus and i am very much looking forward to it

the last concert I went to was back in November.

Cheap Trick opening for Def Lepard.

Lepard and Journey were touring this summer but I didn't get the chance to go.

A stereo-type place is giving us John Mayer next weekend for free. Beyonce will be there the night before but ahem, Mr. Mayer will be there on the 16th.

Enough people in my 'hood have told me he's coming & will come with me for the show.

I'm stressing it's free. I stopped paying $70+ for concerts a while ago. I can't justify it.

I'd like to see Crosby Stills Nash and Young in concert.

Last night I resumed my attendance of the Defender's Day celebrations at Ft. McHenry. This commemorates the successful defense of Baltimore on September 13, 1814, when HM armed forces, freshly returned from the burning of Washington, (an act of noblesse obliges over which true American patriots become misty eyed to this day) attempted to shell the fort into submission. They staged a (small scale) reenactment of the Battle of North Point complete with skirmishers, regular foot soldiers, and a cannon, but this year there was added a drum and fife group, as was the custom back then. The US Army Field Band and Soldiers' Chorus did a 45 minute show, featuring a suitably multi-cultural selection of composers, ending (of course) with the 1812 Overture by the well know American composer Piotr Tchaikovsky; the raising of the big Ft. McHenry flag while the "The Star-Spangled Banner" was played, and a fireworks display closed the evening.

While this was not a concert to “rock the house”, it did keep a local tradition alive for the 192nd consecutive year. A Good Show.

I'm wishing I could afford the tix to the upcoming outdoor shed show Sept 8, we have John Mayer & Sheryl Crowe on the same bill...

...& yes, JM was on CSI tonite, doing his new song, "Waiting For The World To Change" (I think that's the title)...Nick & Catherine were in the audience dancing to it...won't give away the rest of the plot & spoil it...
