Concerts and favorite bands
Thought I would start a thread about concerts you've been to/want to go to and/or list your favorite band (s).
I'm a 90s kid who loves 80s music and was raised on Loverboy. I have seen them numerous times and when I was 14 was actually pulled on stage to sing the encore with Mike Reno which of course was Lovin Every Minute of It (prolly favorite concert memory)
I've seen: gin blossoms, journey, pat benetar, korn, sevendust, in this moment(x2), disturbed, papa roach, skillet, p.o.d, theory of a deadman, shinedown(x3 they put on a hell of a show), three days grace (x2 once with adam singing=bad*** concert, once without which was terrible), and recently saw Trivium which was amazing(drove 5 hours to see them only for them to release new tour dates and come to des moines which is like 2 hours)! Really wanting to see 10 years also.

Makes sense now considering the trivium concert I went to was in minneapolis haha. I live in the southeast corner of iowa. They usually play in Europe so I figured I better go if they are close, then I get home and a couple days later they show the dates for the second part of their tour and they were coming to des moines. Oh well I had a nice trip. I was just up there again a few weeks ago for the packer-vikes game. I like downtown I thought out was pretty nice

That's not too far away. And ya, if someone is coming close who doesn't come along too often, you gotta go. If they come again, that's just another chance to have a good time. Minneapolis isn't bad, but I try to avoid the city if I can help it. Too many people. lol

I am not a concert goer but I really want to see Thee Oh Sees. They are a garage band from San Fran that writes great music and puts on a great show live.
I have seen Rush live and enjoyed it very much every time.

The Cure on their Wish tour. It was a stadium performance and we camped out to get 14 rows from the stage. For the youngsters out there, this is before internet ticket sales.
It was also the year of my high school graduation and the last big thing my high school group of friends did before we scattered across California. Great show!

P.s I often camped out overnight at a music store in San Antonio called "Sound Warehouse." I'm sure someone remembers it?

This brought back memories. I saw them during that era also. Great band. I was in high school in the 90s. ...I went to Depeche Mode violation tour, Erasure, Smashing Pumpkins, new order, Morrissey. Good memories! Music sure changed on me since those days.
