This week end I've been to 2 Tom McRae gigs, it was in France & the towns were Marseille & Montpellier. The gig was rather cool, but the audience was crappy. He played 30% of his new album and the rest for his olders. But I was a bit disapointed, I don't really like his last album, and the place was too big. I've seen him live in Ireland a few month ago and it was far better, there were only 150 persons and it fet like an MTV umplugged...
And you what was your last gig?

The last show I went to was The Misfits. It was probably the best show I've ever been to. The crowd was awesome, they did get a little too rowdy but it was The Misfits so I can't complain too much. They played all the songs that I wanted to hear and despite their age they rocked out like no other. I actually got to meet the lead singer Jerry Only and we was really down to earth and cool. We talked about other bands and just random things for about 45 minutes. He gave me a hug and a kiss on the cheek good bye ^^; But yeah if you like horror punk and The Misfits ever come near you, you have to go to the show. I was very very impressed.

Last gig I went to was the Newsboys...it was in Tampa, Fla. Fun and great special effects

The last one was The Rakes, with Louis XIV, at Oxford.

Blinding!

Hopefully, Nine Black Alps next in Bristol!

Nevermore, supported by Dew Scented, in Nottingham

A brilliant gig but spoilt by the truly crappy venue - the band's heads were nearly hitting the ceiling and this cramped their style a bit

The Anti Nowhere League @ Fibbers in York.

What a night took me back 20yrs, haven’t laughed so much in months loads of old faces, but set my tinnitus off something cronic.

It was a Sunday night so had to limit the booze.

I went to see Duran Duran in Birmingham in the summer and they were awesome! I went out of nostalgia, but I was bowled over by them They are excellent musicians and Le Bon is a great front man. Highly recommended.

Last gig was linkin park an lost prophets manchester england and not forgetting a visit to old trafford to see the reds in action

I can't even remember when the last one was -- probably around 10 years ago, and most likely by some obscure electro band

you mean it wasn't the Duran Duran reunion tour

I saw Mindless Self Indulgence at a local club two days ago. It was one of the best concerts I've gone too. While the first two opening acts sucks. The one right before MSI, called Suicide City was good and brought lots on evergy. Msi came out, the place was packed, the pits were insane (one of the most insane mosh pits ive ever been in, and that says a lot)m the band was full of energy and funny when they played. and the concert was just plain awesome.Bleh, Im ranting, sorry.

Last night, 28/10, watched Nine Black Alps, The Subways & The Kooks at Bristol academy. All for £9!!

Awesome.

The last gig I went to was Municipal Waste, Send More Paramedics, Feeding Frenzy and a few local bands in my hometown independant venue while MW were on their latest european tour! Great fun had by all and I got a chance to meet and talk with Dave Witte - one of the best drumers on the plant (IMO of course!) :)

this summer i saw the Jethro Tull: old but always fantastic. Ian still jumps on the stage, but his voice is lower...
after a week i saw Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds: another beautiful gig.his strange shoes where really near my face... :biggrin:

Last two i went to see were Velvet Revolver and White Stripes--both in Toronto, Ontario. Velvet was amazing but the stripes were a disappointment--really short like they couldn't wait to get off the stage or something

last few ive been too was slipknot in toronto ontario on september the 1st with as ilay dying and unearth and i saw the misfits nov 11 also in toronto they were preety good too but not as good as slipknot.

Live 8 Barrie :P

It was great. I was amazed I got tickets.

Rasputina at Chop Suey in Seattle, WA, USA. It was SO awesome - a nice small venue, good crowd energy, and the band was up close and personal. And Rasputina was just as wonderful in person as recorded...no, more wonderful because Melora would tell these hilarious obnoxious little stories and comments before most of the songs. Anyway, it shares the top spot on my list of favorite concerts with the Mirah gig I saw here in Olympia.

I went to see Arab Strap at the Garage and they were amazing. There was some good banter and even better music. Can't remember the name of the support band but they were pretty cool too.

last gig i went to was Hawkwind ahat a load of crap great if you like noise probaly sounds good if you where stoned

last gig i saw was dropkick murphys and the dead pets in sheffield was the best gig in ages i have been to

I saw Opeth a while ago. House of Blues in Myrtle Beach. Nevermore and Into Eternity opened for them. I was up in the front for Into Eternity, but I was with my sister and during Nevermore's letdown of a performance she decided she wanted us to move to the back and sit for the rest of the show. After that we were hit on by an unsettling group of intoxicated individuals.

It's funny. I live like ten minutes away from the HoB in Myrtle Beach, but I hardly ever participate in concerts. Unless someone really good comes. Which is rare.

Before that, I think the last show I went to was some Metal Legends tribute bands thing. Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, AC/DC and Van Halen cover bands. Pretty good for cover bands, actually. The Sabbath band had an amazing Ozzy.

The last gig I went to was alter bridge supported by future leaders of the world and submersed and some other band that i never heard of called kalus which i got a jagermeister kalus shot glass that they threw out into the mosh pit aread lol.Alter Bridge was better live than on there album.

I go to shows about every other weekend. However, the last show I went to, that stands out in my mind as "High Caliber" would be a David Bowie show in Chicago. Reality tour. The equation was simple, but effective. In an algebra expression (Bowie+MaryJane)*Friends=AWSOME!

On a more local scene, I went to a BROKEN SUNDAY show. They suck, I wont be back ;)

Went to see Big Big Truck. Great show. Waiting for Lamb of God, Dream Theatre or Clutch to come back around.

Went to the NME gig in Bristol & saw Mystery Jets, We Are Scientists, Arctic Monkeys & the superb Maximo Park.

Excellent gig

Last one i went to was Soulfly in Birmingham, although i could not enjoy it fully as my friend was so wasted he could not stand so i had to help him, however he did got thrown out of the place... :P
hope to make up for it in Disturbed concert in months time.. :)

Oasis......in Madchester.
Dont get out as much,But great gig!!

Haven't been to anything since about 1999 - which from memory was Offspring.

However over the next month, I will be seeing Stevie Nicks, John Farnham and Vanessa Carlton (4th March), U2 and Kanye West (18th March), and HIM (28th March). That's what I got tickets for so far.

May be seeing POD, Presidents of the USA, and Mattafix all in one gig on 23 March, but not sure on that one yet.....

Rich

Sonata Arctica with support band Forgotten Tales and opening band Pharaoh or some bullshit, sonata and forgotten rocked the shit out of metal in every meaning, was awesome, planning to go see DragonForce with SanCity in the following month , opening band not announced yet, and hopefully will save enough cash to go to WOA!!

Plea for Pussy Tour: The Queers and The Independents in Philly back in January.

I recently saw, Depeche Mode at Madison Square Garden. The Bravery opened from them, and well they sucked, but Depeche Mode put on an incrediable show and I'm glad I had chance to see them.

Went to HIM on tuesday just been (28th), Awesome show, my ears are still ringing (out of practice, forgot to wear earplugs...).

Given the opportunity, I'd go again in a heartbeat....

Last band i went to see was bloc party at the waterfront in norwich. About 500 people the place was totally packed (and very tiny). They were great and support (komakino) also very good :)

I can't remember! It was either The Pixies, The Doves, or Velvet Revolver, who all played at around the same time here last year...

went up to chicago and saw gel, fog and subtle. best show i have been to in a while. doseone put on a mother fudge of a show. fog is also a sonic auditory treat live as well. highly reccommended to anyone in the area of this tour.

As far as famous gigs I've only been to one and that was Brian Wilson on his Pet Sounds Tour 2001 - shook his hand at a signing too, nearly gave him a heart attack LoL!!

As for any gig in general I saw a local band called The Acoustic Pirates down at the pub last weekend. They are a 3 piece consisting of a bass/double bass player, singer/guitarist/fiddle player and a mandolin/banjo/singer They played some bluegrass covers of some famous tunes (though non aussies wouldn't know most of them).

I believe that when I went home to get something (forget what) they played a cover of Highway To Hell on the electrics, kinda wish I had seen that but overall what I did see was a fun gig. I bought their CD which I might even upload soon if there is any interest. Bluegrass/acoustic bluesy sorta stuff :a013:

The Gigantour in Toronto with Megadeth and Dream Theater.

It was pure bliss

Next up is The Unholy Alliance Tour with Slayer, Lamb Of God, and Children Of Bodom. Cant wait :a013:

Sounds like all the good bands go to Canada!!

We need to get some sort of alliance and get all the big bands to come to Australia and play my local pub!!

It seats around oh...50

I dont know about that I'd give my left nut to go to Wacken.

You should check out Hayseed Dixie's "Let There be Rockgrass" album

LoL sounds like it'd be a bit of fun Bastet

Killswitch looks like an awesome festival:

Aborted, Amon Amarth, Arch Enemy, Atheist, Battlelore, Bloodthorn, Born from Pain, Caliban, Celtic Frost, Children of Bodom, Die Apokalyptischen Reiter, D'espairs Ray, The Dogma, Ektomorf, Emperor, End of Green, Finntroll, Gamma Ray, In Extremo, Korpiklaani, Krieger, Lake of Tears, Mambo Kurt, Metal Inquisitor, Michael Schenker Group, Ministry,Morbid Angel, Motörhead, Mystic Circle, Nevermore, Opeth, Orphaned Land, Primal Fear, Scorpions, Six Feet Under, Soilwork, Subway to Sally, Tourettes Uli Jon Roth, Victory, Vreid, WE, Wintersun

I haven't even heard of most of the bands, but I'd kill to see half of the ones I know.

Please make me kill.

Please....

The last one I went to was Thin Lizzy reunion in March 06, a great night was had by all

The last live gig I saw was Prefuse 73 and LebLaze back in September.

Been out to places with local DJs spinning tunes a few times since then.


Lack of Cash = No Going Anywhere

yay hayseed dixee rule, been to our town a few times

last gig i went to were a love music hate racism gig at the student union bar, i'm not a student
white priest were up first (all local bands but all good and going places) got there late, and they finshed without played trippin, their anthem, we demanded it, said they played it already, bummer, will have to wait till next week to see them again
leaving issacs shop were up next, good tunage, do a cracking cover of arcade fire's rebellion (lies), think they may have been signed to a small label
next up were cream tangerne, split opions on them from friends, i thought they were great, a suprise, a very varied mix of tunes and styles, they are in the final of a battle of the bands comp and going down to london for the finals (them not me)

Last gig was One Man Army And The Undead Quartet, Ektomorf and Children Of Bodom.

One Man Army was awesome, Ektomorf was OK, but CoB was just plain awful :'(

Ween @ the Tabernacle in Atlanta.
April 10th, 2006.

The Tabernacle, eh?

I saw Oasis there a couple of years ago.

I haven't been out in a while, so I don't know what I'm doing in this thread.

I don't get out either Sue but I still manage to lurk in this forum alot (perhaps that is why I'm never out)

last concert i went to was (my third concert) at Carnegie Hall...
it was a benefit for the Rainforest Foundation Fund labeled "Shades of Woodstock" including a 5 artists: Cheryl Crow, Billy Joel, Lenny Kravitz, Sting, and James Taylor. With two surprise guests- Russel Crow and Will Farrel.. I have to say it was the best one I've been to- the other two I have been at were Matisyahu @ Hammerstein Ballroom and The Rolling Stones @ Radio City Music Hall.
