    Keith Urban is absolutely amazing, and has such an awesome connection with the audience.

    Dave Matthews Band concerts are also always very enjoyable ;)

    My little sister has travelled to 8 different states to see Dave Matthews. What she didn't know was that he worked out at the gym that I worked at for a while. And no, I'm not going to say which one. Besides I don't think he's there any more. I've been gone for 7 years from that place. But yeah, I'm old, and when I first met him, I had no idea who he was. My kids went nuts when I told them. And my sister was pretty psyched too. One night he worked out at the gym, while I was closing. It was a Saturday, and I was covering for employees who had tickets to his concert. He and one other band member was there until about 6:30. And I knew he had a concert starting 4-5 hours away by car. I guess he flies. But it was fun to know that he was working out before his concert. More and more rock stars are doing that. I love it!

    Sade in Toronto this year.

    YES!!! THIS!!!! I saw her in Minneapolis. I was totally captivated. It was like watching a beautiful dream. I know that couldn't possibly sound sappier, but that is how it felt to me.

    Forgot that I saw Smashing Pumpkins last year and won a competition to meet Billy and the band before the show.
    I've been the biggest Pumpkins fan since I was 15 and although the meeting was brief it was a dream fulfilled.
