Hi all,
Wondering if anyone's been to any great music concerts (or are going to one) - I am off to one in the not too distant future:
May the road rise up to meet you
May the wind be always at your back
May the sun shine warm upon your face
And the rain fall soft upon your tracks
And until, until we meet again
May God hold you safely in the palm of His hand
From a traditional Irish Traveller's Prayer, so eloquently put to music by Australia's late great of country music, Slim Dusty
I'm seeing, in the not-too-distant future:
Lights
Trans-Siberian Orchestra
Amy Grant
I went to about 12 concerts this year already, so I'm already exhausted...and my bank account is depleted. I would love to see Grace Potter & The Nocturnals, and Keane, both of who are coming in January and Feb, but I simply cannot afford it...
And since Christina Aguilera is touring her new 7th studio album, I have to see her live again. Just have to! I saw her live on her first tours, but I really want to see some of the new songs since then performed.
Last weekend I went to see muse
Plan to see the xx next month and of monsters and men January
About a month ago I went to see Joshua radain and snow patrol s few months ago
I love concerts
I'm going to see Sloan next week. They're playing only old stuff so I'm pretty excited.
Future concerts I want to see:
Radiohead
Animal Collective
Tenacious D
Blink-182
I can die happy if I can see any of these 4 bands :b
Live music completely erases all of my anxieties and fears.
Most recent concert was an all-day free gig. Phantogram, Matt & Kim and Oberhofer were there.
I have been to see most of my favourite bands Magnum Spocks Beard Styx Helloween Dio and many more its great singing along to your favourite songs and seeing the band you love on stage.
So far I've seen:
Marilyn Manson
Slipknot
AFI
Blink 182
HIM

I love concerts :3 I'm going to see Billy Talent for the third time in March. Pewpew
Just have to say that I saw Amy Grant 3 nights ago, and it was wonderful. One of the best concerts I've ever been to.
I've only been to two:
Smashing Pumpkins with Garbage opening back in the late 90's.
Britney Spears with Destiny's Child at Waikiki Beach in 2003 (I think.) That one was free.
Destiny's Child opened for Britney as well?Britney Spears with Destiny's Child at Waikiki Beach in 2003 (I think.) That one was free.
I saw Destiny's Child as one of the opening acts for Christina Aguilera's first solo tour. The other opening act was a band called SoulDecision.
^ Yep, they did! At the time, I didn't even know who they were. And Britney herself was pretty new.
But it was a fun concert - it was right on the beach with Britney dancing in the sand. It was so packed, though, I barely had a square foot to myself. Being a petite woman, I'm lucky I didn't get squished!
