    I will start.. so let me see if I count EVERY single band/artist/musician I have ever seen live since my childhood, it starts a bit shameful and progressively gets better xD

    (Chronological Order)

    Vanessa Carlton (she played at Sea World when I worked there lol)
    KYO
    KoRn
    Nightwish (with Anette 2008, sweet jeebus ear rape)
    Rammstein
    Tarja (2009, 2011 x2, 2012)
    Leaves' Eyes (2011, 2012)
    Amberian Dawn (2009, 2011)
    Epica (2009, 2012)
    Tristania (with Mariangela 2011, again ear rape)
    Van Canto (2011)
    Xandria (2011, 2012)
    Stream of Passion (2012)
    Satan Jokers (2012, does it count if my band opened for them? xD)
    Worn-Out (2012, from the same show where my band played)
    Firewind (2012)

    I am sure there are more than that but that is all I remember for now.. there's a lot of little bands too.
    I am also in 2 associations that organize metal concerts in my area locally, so I "work" at some of these shows as a bar wench and often as a translator since I'm an American living in France and the only one able to speak English fluently in the association.

    "I dunno..like every hardcore band in the 80s?! :D As for now, I'd go see Frank Turner every night if I could lol.. "

    I'm very active in current hardcore, so I've seen way too many bands to count or list, but I went to the Revelation Records reunion over the summer and it was fantastic. Gorilla Biscuits and Supertouch were my favorite. I get to see the Cro-Mags again next week too :]

    I would have killed to see 80's hardcore bands in their prime. Who was your favorite? Did you ever see Warzone?

    The only concert I've ever been to was 2012's Trans-Siberian Orchestra's Christmas show in Houston.

    I'm kinda worried it'll be hard for other bands to top that.

    Dusting off the cobwebs...I don't have fun anymore, but I used to...

    Jane's Addiction
    The Cure
    Depeche Mode
    Poe
    The Sisters of Mercy
    Faith and the Muse
    VNV Nation
    Haujobb
    Bella Morte
    Several bands I can't remember at Convergence 4 (but I missed Cinema Strange!)
    Alice Ripley (doing original music, as well as musical theater)

    I should start having fun again. I almost blew off a rehearsal to see Peter Murphy. It was just table work, but, luckily, he never seems to stop touring, hit and runs be damned! On a similar note, I also showed up late to Bauhaus because the person with the tickets was being a twit.
