So far I've seen (in chronological order):
  • Alan Jackson
  • Brad Paisley (with Darius Rucker and Michael Moore (who is eh))
  • Jamey Johnson
  • George Jones
  • Eric Church
So pretty much I've only been to country music concerts but I'm going to see Roger Waters from Pink Floyd in Nashville which is gonna be awesooooooome.

Who've y'all seen and/or who do you plan on seeing?

I just.. I wouldn't even know where to begin.

I was at between 50 and 60 concerts from 13-22.

A lot of them had 10+ performers at them as well..

Just.. a whole lot of bands.

I've also never been to a concert. I know it's a little bit sad.

They're great showmen!
But I feel like they're kinda only worth seeing once. Or maybe I outgrew them by the time I had seen them the second time. I dunno.
They just seemed a little sterile. I mean, they don't make mistakes. At all. Ever. They sound just like they do on the album. That's a little boring. <_<

Well, I've been to a lot of small concerts downtown. My city has a free concert series in the summer through the autumn called Night Fall. I don't remember all of the bands and singer/songwriters that I've seen there...Most are small-name bands. I'll only include ones that I remember really really liking.

Nightfall Concerts:
  • Solas (Awesome Celtic band. They're what got me into the genre :))
  • The Flatlanders
  • Luna

I've also gone to a few major, independent concerts:
  • Green Day
  • Meg & Dia
  • The Machine (Pink Floyd tribute band. Prolly the closest anyone my age will get to hearing Pink Floyd live.)
  • Joe Cocker

K so like, Tuesday was insane.

Hit the road for Nashville at 10 or 11 AM. It was a four hour trip so I napped the whole way there. I wake up, spend the whole rest of the day cruisin' the street of venues, hit a bar, had a glass of water (lol?) and watched some no-name band cover some classic country songs. It was around 6ish or 7ish or 8ish when me and my parents went into the Bridgestone Arena for Roger Waters.

During the concert, there were these huge white bricks, and as Roger was performing with his new band, the bricks would stack upon each other, gradually forming the wall. It started covering most of the members, and all the while they were still performing. There were also these weird images and clips flashing on the wall, usually corresponding to what Roger was singing about. For example, while he sang "Waiting for the Worms," large red worms would be slithering across the wall. And during one of the "Another Brick in the Wall" parts, this gigantic teacher with an alien-like head (couldn't tell if the thing was inflatable or an animatroic) would be moving around. This whole thing was just an amazing experience.

TL;DR: I'll probably never see a better concert.
