Concert Thread
 

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 have not seen anyone lately but I always want to go see Social Burn when they are in town.

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 :)

i love music, all kinds of it, but i don't care much for concerts. *shrug*

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.

The 8th of October I am seeing Massive Attack!!!!!!!!!! Lake is coming up to see them with me, I can't wait!!!!!!!!

Who have I seen? The best concert I've seen was probably U2 (with opening band Arcade Fire) back in November last year - their show is just incredible!!!!!!!!! I've also seen Nickelback, The Tea Party, Live, Matthew Good, Three Doors Down, finger eleven, Three Days Grace, Staind, Nelly Furtado, Avril Lavigne, K-OS, Swollen Members, Crush, Breaking Benjamin, etc... Too many to list! I love concerts!!!!!!!!

Just got home from Roger Waters...

Old stuff...ENTIRE Dark Side album and ends with The Wall and Comfortably Numb.

Nuff Said.

I'm so jealous! I was working right next to the ACC but didn't get tickets. :( How do you always score seats to wicked events?!?!

Steph---I'm not sure,but I saw the add for the NEW season of CSI & I think
that John Mayer is in the opener of the season!(Sept 21 2006) Irish :thumbs:

I think I read that! I always work evenings so I miss all the prime time shows. I'll check youtube when I get home!

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...
