crimsonfire Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Basically give a rundown, to the best of your knowledge, of all the bands you've seen live and how many times. Thoughts and concise reviews welcome! If you have a lot then save some for a another post to keep the thread going. Make it chronological if you can remember dates and years and shit. I know i cant heh. This also includes support bands, local bands and any other band you can think of. heres mine anywho: Foo Fighters (3 times) Nine Inch Nails (1) The Offspring (1) Sum 41 (1) Metallica (2) SlipKnot (1) Alice In Chains (1) Stone Sour (1) God is an Astronaut (4) Lionel Richie (1) was working at the venue doing security but was a fucking awesome show nonetheless Pussycat Dolls (1) same as above except didn't enjoy it in the slightest Basement Jaxx (1) another on-the-clock one but it was alright Red Hot Chilli Peppers (1) interesting fact: the concert myself and ross were at was filmed for the DVD Live At Slane Castle Queens of the Stone Age (1) supported RHCP at above gig and damn near outshined them. Foo Fighters were also there but werent as good as either band. Still awesome though. more as i remember them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crimsonfire Posted September 17, 2008 Author Share Posted September 17, 2008 I feel your pain on Muse and Interpol. Awesome fucking bands. Doj saw Muse recently back home in Dublin. Guess thats the price I pay for moving to a new and exotic land with nicer weather and lovelier womens. The Aussies get major bands touring Oz once every millenium or so.

HypnotizinChikns Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 See that's why I need to beat doj up. he thinks he's soooooo cooool becuase he's seen Muse and I haven't. Oh and i need to add Radiohead to the list of bands i want to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the division of joy Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 My list (given i've been to a festival or two) is rather lengthy. And shane, you've missed out on the rolling stones. Muse The Smashing Pumpkins Queens of the stone age (twice) RHCP (twice) Metallica Slipknot (in support of the above) Radiohead (twice) God is an astronaut (4 times) The Doves Kasabian The Kaiser Chiefs Bloc party The Prodigy Ian brown Laurent Garnier MuM Sigur Ros The Saw Doctors (not proud) Interpol Green Day Blink-182 (also not proud) Mortiis The Foo's Nine Inch Nails Tenacious D Nas The Flogging Molly Death From Above 1979 The Streets (twice) The Killers Keane Coldplay The Rolling Stones The Charlatans (twice) Audioslave Milo LCD Soundsystem Combichrist The Arcade Fire And i'm sure theres one or two more i'm missing. Now, on to what i wanna go see. Hybrid Unkle Exodus Kyuss *not ever going to happen* Pink Floyd *as above* Bruce Springsteen Pearl Jam Rage Immortal Technique Jedi mind tricks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crimsonfire Posted September 17, 2008 Author Share Posted September 17, 2008 I doubt Rage is ever gonna happen for us dude. I intentionally left out the band you said so I could add some more in time but you twisted my arm: The Rolling Stones (1) Faithless (1) oh and Kasabian! How could I forget. Supported the above. Was pretty drunk when they came on live. Talking like Rorschach. Must go to comics forum. Director (1) fucking awesome Irish indie band, based not too far from my previous home in Dublin. i think im forgetting some great irish local bands but i wanna give them some decent attention with links to their sites and such. I'll save it for a special post. edited for special reasons like my special brain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alive she cried Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Audioslave (first real gig i was ever at. fuckin' fantastic) Rodrigo y Gabriela (saw these before they were big, saw 'em in an old church with about fifty other people. in credible gig) Metallica (fucking epic) Linkin Park (supported metallica. did a great job getting the crowd fired up for metallica with their horrific performance ) The Darkness (see above) Riders On The Storm aka What's left of The Doors (One of the greatest nights of my life, i know there was no jim or john. But hearing "Ladies and gentlemen, from Las Angeles California...The Doors" and then the opening to Roadhouse Blues gave me chills ) Pearl Jam (top quality gig) Radiohead (another fantastic gig, that was the night after pearl jam) Beck (supported radiohead, pretty good show) The Rolling Stones (Played a lot of unknown 80's stuff but started and finished strong, paint it black alone was worth the monies) Black Label Society (zakk wylde's band supporting ozzy, did'nt play enough of his earlier stuff) Ozzy Osbourne (without doubt one of the best gigs i've been at, he was on top form as was zakk who more than made up for the poor enough bls set) Tom Waits (best gig ever. 'nuff said) ------------------------ Bands I need to see Led Zeppelin Black Sabbath (original line up) Down Bob Dylan Eels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

90sKid Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Maná (For which I feel an overwhelming shame, but I was young, living with older cousins and nobody wanted to go to Placebo with me) Ely Guerra (It was for free and only a little more than a hundred people attended; it was awesome and Ely is just too attractive) Zoé (Probable my favorite Mexican band ever - besides, that's my girl's name!... well, except it's Zoe, not Zoé) Los Dynamites (Awesome band) Los Bunkers (Which I regret) Austin TV 6 Million Dollar Weirdo (They scared me with their incomprehensible hair and clothes) The Kooks (Ugh...) The Flaming Lips (Awesome, awesome, awesome) Stone Temple Pilots (They came in late, but EVERYONE was singing Plush) Nine Inch Nails (Trent Reznor really likes his fancy lights and I love him for that) Pendulum (Didn't know they exist - they're really good live!) MGMT (Eh...) Daft Punk (Their suits and the pyramid - need I say more?) Smashing Pumpkins (The weight of the legends Billy and Jimmy was really evident... bastards didn't play Disarm) The Hives (Vocal's batshit insane) The Go! Team (Bored me to tears and they were so noisy I couldn't make out a single instrument. Ninja's a great performer, though) I think that's it.
