Texas Jam

 

I would've loved to seen either of those lineups.

i havent been to a whole lot of concerts, so far my favorite was social distortion 3 years ago. it was a small club venue. the sound was great, the atmosphere was fantastic, loved it.

another cool show was vans warped tour 97. it was cool because i was in junior high school, and my neighbor was the east coast sales rep for vans. i got in for free, met the bands, met a bunch of pro skaters, took home a TON of free shit.

one band that i missed out seeing live was Type o Negative. They are one of my top 5 favorite bands. i had a chance once to see them but i had to work, then Pete died before i got another chance. sad.

 

First concert I went to was Shaggy...tough to top that

 

Kid Rock actually performed best at this one...it was actually outside at the dragway.

The other one mentioned was also a small club venue.

 

Neo Geo, Mr. White, Deadmau5, Kaskade, Benny Benassi, Laid Back Luke, Felix da House Cat, David Guetta, Tech N9Ne, Hed P.E., Smashmouth, Kottonmouth Kings, Kingspade, Big B and Dirtball, Saint Dog, Cypress Hill, Datsik, Excision, Kleptomaddox, Afrojack, Bassjackers, Basshunter, Crosby Stills Nash (private show - family friends), Duran Duran (family friends of my mother), Bloody Beetroots, Rusk0, and i even got dragged to a brittany spears concert...

 

OMFG I AM SO JEALOUS

 

Grateful Dead, Boston, Y&T, Metallica, Iron Maiden, Dio, Motorhead, Scorpions, Whitesnake, Van Halen (DLR), Slaughter, Warrant, Firehouse, Vixen, Pantera, Skid Row, Dokken, Eddie Money, Sammy Hagar (solo), Nickelback, Erasure, Salmon, Trans-Siberian Orchestra

And quite a few more that I know I am forgetting...

 

The list is too long.

Highlights:

Pantera 6 times (favorite was at Harpo's in Detroit 2 weeks before Vulgar Display came out, one of the craziest shows!)
Ozzy Ultimate Sin tour with this bunch of unknowns opening called Metallica.
6 Judas Priest shows (even one with Ripper) no further than 4th row with only one exception). I think the favorite was the Painkiller tour.
We have seen Volbeat 8 times in 3 years. Add another in a month. I liked it when they were a secret but they deserve what they are getting now. Fantastic live and great guys to meet.

Within the last year; Volbeat, Clutch, In Flames, Demon Hunter, Social Distortion, Steel Panther, Hatebreed, Shadows Fall, Kyng, well, thats alll I remember right now.

 

Too many to think of here's three of the most entertaining I have heard in recent years. (Alex, category = country/old school rock.)

1. Charlie Daniels Band
2 Travis Tritt
3. Heart

Yes, Heart. I ddn't believe it ether and really didn't care to go but got dragged there by the Boss. Glad I went and will go again if I get the chance.

Hint, if conservative political views makes you mad, then skip CDB. Personally I would elect the man for President.

 

Holy thread revival!

 

I'll have to figure out my past 12 months, but last time I saw Clutch in Boston (Jan '12) they played with Kyng.

Most times for me is Godsmack, close to 30 times. That said, I was seeing them in clubs here in Boston before even local radio picked up on them.
