Once again, I'd like to hear about your concert experiences. Please share.

If you'd like an elaboration on any of my shows, just ask.

You remember all those dates? Or do you have the stubs?

Just have to say this, OLP=Devil

All the concerts I've been to?
Matthew Good Band, Copyright, Rocksmithtabla(or something like that. They were a local band)

Jonny Lang@Bluesfest 2001. He was fucking incredible!!

Nickelback, Default-I was sick through most of Nickleback's set. Not bad, but mostly about hte show, not about the music.

Edgefest 2002
(Just listing the bands that I saw)-Simple Plan (well, caught one song-I'm just a Kid), Jerry Cantrell (well, as much as I could stand of him, anyway), Sevendust (fucking amazing!!), Goldfinger (funny guys), finger eleven (*drool*), Mudmen (awesome), and a few other bands that I didn't catch the name of.

Matt Good-at the on-campus bar, which, for the record, was far too small a venue!

Harley Davidson Open Road Tour-Day 2
Bif Naked, David Usher, The Doors

Fear of the Trailer Park Tour
finger eleven (fuckin incredible!), OLP (couldn't stand a minute)

I've also been to various smaller festivals, and heard a few bands perform at Canada Day festivities and the like. My favourite live performers though, are Jonny Lang, finger eleven, Sevendust, and MGB

I loved System of a Down at Ozzfest this past summer. It was like they injected phermones into the air before they played, it was awesome.

I'd love to see SOAD and Incubus live.

FAVE CONCERTS

Runners up: Slipknot, Korn, Matt Good, Soulfly (who i'm going to in a few days :D), and a band called Mocking Shadows.

Hands down winner: TOOL. I've never ever experienced anything like that before. fucking unbelievable.

The 1999 Gorewar show was heartstopping.

Man, OLP are great!!

My all time favourite concert was in fact last Tuesday (25th March 2003)

One Pity, some other band who were shite and the MAD CAPSULE MARKETS @The Wedgewood Rooms, Portsmouth

One Pity were okay, but the MCM's just so f\/@king rocked. I never said 'fuck' so many times in one night!!

pink floyd...best band live

my fav shows (aside from the local scene, which i love) were probably either the jaggermeister music tour (drowning pool, coal chamber, 40 Below Summer, Tree) or the Pledge of Alliegance Tour (Slipknot, SOAD, Rammstein, No One, American Head Charge). Thats favorite shows.

Favorite bands to see live are probably Nonpoint, System, or Slipknot.

Tool is incredible live, but for me my favorite show so far would have to be Taproot, Deadsy, and Dredg on the 17th of august, in austin,tx. Deadsy was terrible, but dredg and taproot were amazing, stephen richards of taproot may not have greatest voice ever, but he puts on an amazing show, taproot is seriousley a incredible live band
