    My Mom & Dad took me to see Kiss when I was 5, then they took me to see Bad Company 3 nights later. She has kept every concert ticket stub, photo and t-shirt I have gotten since then (33 years of concerts). In 1988 I was a groupie for the summer with a few friends. Aug 29th, 1992 was my wedding day, we changed the time of the wedding to 3 hours earlier to go to the GNR and Metallica concert.

    My list is very long and I cannot remember all the groups I've seen and the ones that I've met (there was quite a few in the early 80's), I thank my Mom & Dad for taking me EVERYWHERE they went when it involved music! :drinker:

    Gotta love hippie parents!! :flowerforyou:

    Not nearly enough! Keith Urban, Gretchen Wilson, Big & Rich, Rascal Flatts, Miranda Lambert, The Band Perry, Toby Keith, Deftones, Gwar.

    Hmm, that's a random assortment... Oh well, I didn't pay for any of them.

    Alice in Chains, Joe Satriani, Dream Theater, Dave Matthews

    Really pissed off that Tool isn't touring anymore bc Maynard is making wine and building Pusifer up, bc that show would be my dream concert....

    Tool just performed in Minneapolis/St. Paul for the Rivers Edge Music Festival so they tour, but rarely... Also heard they are supposed to be working on new music, but not sure if that's confirmed.

    I went to Ozzfest 2005, which had a large variety of bands including Sabbath (original lineup), Iron Maiden, In Flames, Rob Zombie, Mudvayne, Trivium, Arch Enemy, Killswitch Engage, Mastodon, Black Label Society, and others.

    As far as standalone performances, I've seen:

    Donnie Iris
    Nightranger
    Van Halen
    Weird Al Yankovic
    Stone Temple Pilots
    Iced Earth

    and that's it, I think.

    Also, not sure if this counts or not but I also went to see the Pittsburgh Symphony perform Beethoven's 9th.
