Concerts

[Nerendier]

So I was wondering what concerts you all have been to.

 

Sunday I went to the Nightwish/Kamelot concert. IT WAS AWESOME. Kamelot did an amazing job, especially in getting the crowd into it. Nightwish was great. The new singer on the tour (apparently they got rid of Annette) was pretty good, although she wasn't able to hit the high notes.

 

This video shows basically where I was standing, maybe 2 people back and slightly to the right:

You can hear me I think.

 

In summary, it was bloody awesome. kamelot had us sing happy birthday to three members in the band. LOL.

I've been to two Tokio Hotel concerts (I met the band before the second concert five years ago ), and to a Hurts performance. Loved them all and had an awesome time - I absolutely love the madness of a concert!

I went to a Brian Adams concert while I was still living in Sri Lanka. LOVED it!

The last concert I went to was Rush in 2002 (I was pregnant at the time).

 

I was at one of Oingo Boingos last Halloween Shows in 1989. I've seen the Cure and Depeche Mode and Jethro Tull.

 

There are a lot of concerts I'd like to go to, but of course, that takes money.

[Dracarys]

I truly cannot remember all the concerts and shows I've been to. (That's not bragging, I really can't.)

 

My first show was The Monkees/Weird Al, my second was Tesla and Firehouse (hahahaha).

 

Others that stand out are Beastie Boys/The Roots/John Spencer Blues Explosion (Best. Show. Ever.), Pink Floyd, 311, Rammstein, Lacuna Coil/Sevendust, Dee-Lite, Bad Religion, Dave Matthews, Rancid, GWAR, Rabbit in the Moon, Sasha and John Digweed, Brian Setzer (formerly of The Stray Cats), Mazzy Star, Aerosmith, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, Cherry Poppin' Daddies, The Toasters... lots of local bands and music festivals when I lived in Atlanta.

 

I haven't been to many shows as of late, but we're trying to make the Behemoth show in Houston this month!

That may not be all of them. Perks of having music lovers for parents. Concerts are probably my favorite things in the entire world. I went to my first concert when I was about 2, but I only listed concerts that I can remember.

[Poisony]

I've been to festivals before (Like Sfinx Festival, Esperanza and other mini things)

But the real concert I had was from Owl City (it was awesome!) and since I do listen to all kind of music, I also went to classical music concerts but don't know the names..

This year I'm going for Our Last Night Who's familiar with them?

[Rachel72]

Tim McGraw/Diamond Rio...for my birthday, when Tim was just starting out. Also, I went to after Confederate Railroad concert, also for my birthday.

[MissHippie]

I've been to two Tokio Hotel concerts (I met the band before the second concert five years ago ), and to a Hurts performance. Loved them all and had an awesome time - I absolutely love the madness of a concert!

I've been there too with her (she's my sister ), and I loved it. I really like Hurts so I went there super excited and came back home without my voice.

I've also been to PCD, that I really used to love until they split up. And I've been to Rihanna's performance... worst one I've ever been to.

[Jortaani]

I saw The Neal Morse Band last summer when they threw an ultimate gig in Keuruu. It lasted over three hours! I was also at Tavastia last Thursday when Haken played there, and it was one of the most awesome hours in this year

I even got my Mountain LP signed by the lead guitarist

 

I really hope I also get to see Steven Wilson next February, please school don't block my way ~~~~

The only concert I've been to was for Bonobo, on the last concert of his The North Borders Tour. Supporting were Darkstar (who I missed) and Gold Panda (who was, like, ethereal) and onstage Bonobo had Andreya Triana, and Cornelia, and Grey Reverend, and it was amazing

And you can watch it all here!

 

Kendrick Lamar,

When was this? I've only listened to To Pimp A Butterfly so I'd love to know more

[AppleMango]

On the 11th I went to Taylor Swift's concert on her 1989 tour!!

 

I've also been to Soundwave(like the Warped tour) once, and several indie concerts in Japan.

I'm super jealous

 

I've been to way too many. Thank goodness I live near the Target Center in Minnesota. Tons of awesome bands come there!

[AppleMango]

Walk the Moon are coming to Australia and I am thinking about going to their concert but it's so soon and I don't have time to plan, especially since I will be on holiday pretty much between now and then so ahhhh. >_< The tickets are only $60 though so so good

[Tish]

saw Lady Gaga and The Darkness a couple of years ago and Gerard Way in february. i was able to talk with a member of his band and he signed my copy of Hesitant Alien, im so happy

Wow! I'm so jealous Gee. He came to play here at sound wave I think it was but it was soo expensive and I had no money at the time. ;^;

 

Lets see I haven't been to many since it usually involves a lot of travelling. Not many bands/singers visit where I live.

 

Pink - Amazing, I wouldn't call myself a Pink fan but she was really great.

My Chemical Romance - So happy I got to see them before they broke up!

30 seconds to Mars - I forgot my glasses and Jared was supper skinny at the time so he kinda disappeared...sounded wonderful though.

Bigbang - Some idiot got on stage and tried to dance with Seungri but other than that was really fun.

[Predat0rs]

I want to see more concerts in 2016.

[Nikkithepikachu]

Im going to a Panic! At The Disco concert this summer, I'm so excited lol.

[ImNemo598]

Went to my first concert on St Patricks Day to see Fall Out Boy (w/ Pvris and Awolnation) with my boyfriend, his sister, and their mother.

It was amazing, everyone, every song performed by all of them was amazing and 23423423523/10 would go again. Was well worth losing my voice to. Was hoping to see Disturbed or A Day to Remember a few months later but that's looking more and more unlikely

[AppleMango]

Vance Joy concert tonight with my boyfriend!!

So excited!!!
