Mine was Vader with Jungle Rot and Paynesteak opening I think.
Vader was freaking scary, it was fun. Cool

Interesting trivia

I jumped into the moshpit and my glasses instantly flew off my face, after about 12 seconds I realized the folly of crawling around a mosh pit on my hands and knees and thought "fuck it they're gone" and went back to slamming around gleefully.

When icame back to the bar area at the back of the venue the dude I came with was holding my glasses, in perfect working order. He hadn't moved from his barstool, said they slid across the floor to his feet. Confused

If their set didn't start with a clip of Big Van Vader yelling "It's Vader time!", I will be quite disappointed.

Brian Setzer, some years ago.

Les Claypool, June 19th. Fun show.
Before that, Black Label Society, 11/18/06. Another fun show. And I'll be going to see Prong at Emo's on Oct. 20. I was supposed to see All That Remains on the 5th of October, but my school's Homecoming is that day, so I will sacrifice a fun show to go to our game.

Oh wait. If it counts, I saw Tom Morello for free in April.

Hell yeah that counts.

And yes, I'll admit that my last concert was Dave Matthews Band a month ago.

Alice Cooper, fuck yeah! Before that I went to Robot Mosh Fest and saw Cattle Decapitation and Cephalic Carnage.

The last act I went to see was a local band, called WINDOM EARLE... they're amazing!!! Here's one of their instrumental acts:

Alice Cooper, Oct 28th 2005, his last show before Halloween. Very cool, I met Ryan Roxie, his guitarist, afterwards. My next show will be Van Halen on Dec 5th. At least I hope, cuz I had to pass up on Velvet Revolver, Scorpions, and Ozzy.

I guess I'll be the third to name Alice Cooper as the most recent act I saw. He was at Summerfest last year. I saw Beatallica and Lewis Black there as well.

My girlfriend drags me to a lot of shows (though I've gotten better about saying "no"). Thus, the last show I saw was the Bangles (yeah, "Walk Like An Egyptian" and all that...). The last show of MY picking was Meat Loaf (front row!) in August and, before that, Meat Loaf (eighth row!) two weeks earlier.

Mana on 09/10. Their shows always rock but I think they end too early. It's mexican rock for those that dont know.

Prior to that I saw the Projekt Revolution tour about a month or two ago. Linkin Park, HIM, My Chemical Romance, Taking Back Sunday, etc etc. It was an all day show and it wasnt too bad. MCR worried more about putting on a show than actually playing good music but whatev.

And hopefully I can go to the Del the Funkee Homosapien show at the end of this month.

I am kind of bummed i missed Air Supply last week at the casino. This Is A Joke

Blue Oyster Cult 2 years back. And it was a free concert, it was a rockin good time. I'm hoping to see them again soon but they only come to my area once in a blue moon.

Good name. Cool

The last one I think I went to was Weird Al's Poodle Hat tour... And I'm going to see him again later this month. Mr. Green

My last was Roger Waters in June, hopefully my next will be Van Halen on December 9th, which I am stoked for. I even went out and bought 1984 on vinyl I was so excited.

What's wrong with Air Supply? Gotta leave some cheese out there, so it might as well be CHEESY CHEESE.

Posted: Sep 24 2007 06:41 pm

I didn't get to see Megadeth for the SECOND time since they've played in my area.

Bobashotmace...welcome, and yes, Van Halen fucking rules. They just announced that tix for the Vancouver show go on sale Saturday, and my dad's friend is going to buy the tix. We all joke that he has more money than brains, and he's totally psyched for the show, so maybe he'll get a little overzealous when buying tix...

I don't get to many concerts anymore, but a month or so ago I did manage to see Tool and the Police in a three day span.

And that night was tonight. He's still awesome. Cool

Good to hear, I had to miss him too in order to see Van Halen (tour starts tomorrow). I'm pretty pissed that I had to miss Velvet Revolver, Ozzy, Rob Zombie, the Scorps, and Weird Al, but I just know this show will be worth it, and tix are $8 cheaper than the Sammy tour (which seems like nothing, but you save money and get to see a better, more sober show, woop woop)

P.S.-I ain't shutting up til I've seen the show, and I plan on posting a review

I wish I could see them but they aren't coming to florida
I am very pissed off Evil

Bad news, looks like I ain't seeing Van Halen. It really sucks because not only do I not get to see them but its also too late to by Ozzy tickets now. I can still go to Velvet Revolver (tickets are cheap as hell for a rexall show anyways, on good van halen ticket cost a little more than two good VR tickets, four VR tickets equals 1 good Roger Waters ticket, almost 8 if I was talking the shitty tickets) but I'm not thinking the should will be that great because its in two weeks, I looked and I can still get tickets as close as the eighth row. And if they're not even selling out the floor then I feel really bad for them, especially since they booked fucking Rexall (floor, balcony, second balcony third balcony). But yeah, odds are I gonna see Velvet Revolver unless something awesome happens and Van Halen (whom I was REALLY excited for and am pissed off about now) becomes a possibility again.

EDIT: Yeah, I'm seeing Velvet Revolver, eighth row.

Dimmu Borgir + Amon Amarth in the beginning of this month.

EDIT: Holy crap, I've just found out that Queensrÿche are coming here Nov. 19th!!! Shocked
