The Dave Matthews Band - My 67th show over the past 22 years. The most recent one was at Jones Beach on Long Island earlier this month. Quiet year for me because of the birth of my first child. I did manage to get to 9 last year, in 5 states.

Saw The Rolling Stones last week - those guys continue to amaze.
Wish I would have seen the current Rush tour, no good excuse for that one. BB King was on my list, but sadly, that won't happen now. Last year was Bob Seeger and then the Eagles. Next up, Steely Dan and Elvis Costello. I hope they do a couple songs together! On my list - James Taylor, The Tragically Hip, Robert Cray, AD/DC

Last one (at my 15 y/o daughter's insistence) was Crosby, Stills and Nash. She is in full retro mode and knew all the lyrics to their hits.
The Trews will be at City Winery in NYC in a few weeks and that should be my next gig

Dave AC/DC is amazing. I have seen them 3 times. The first time was for the Who Made Who Tour and they where so loud they cracked the brick arena so bad a decible limit was put in place after that concert. I also seen them in Amsterdam at the Ajax Arena in 2009 and it was by far the best concert I have ever been to. What I can remember of it anyway.

Eagles
My wife, youngest son and his girlfriend saw the Eagles this past Wednesday night at the Hartford Civic Center in Hartford Connecticut.
It was awesome, They played 27 songs. They started it with Saturday Night, closed the first set with Take It to the Limit. The second set was much more Rock. I won't tell you anymore in case your going to see them an eagles fan for many years. john

Earlier this summer I went to the Shaky Knees Festival in Atlanta. Spent a few days in Nashville checking out bands. Then saw Willie Nelson/Beck in Kansas City. Last Friday I saw Jane's Addiction in Pittsburgh. Heading to NYC next month for Hum/Failure, then going to Chicago for Riot Fest. Tons of local bands in between.
Pretty bummed I missed Rush when they came through. It's probably been 20 years since I last saw them. It sounds like this might have been the last shot.

Busy Concert Month Here!
Morning,
Lot of talk about Rush, seen them 39 times now, somebody said maybe this years tour would be last, I hope not, would like to see them 20-30 more times! This month (Sept.) I have Wishbone Ash....Been a Fan for 45 years and this will be the first time I've ever seen them, have like 50 different albums by them with different line-ups, only one original member from the late 60's. Then its Duran Duran at Red Rocks, best place on the Earth to see concerts, been to over 600 there. Then Best Coast a new California band I'm into. Next is an International act called Empire of the Sun, a little out there, but I really like a couple of their anthem style songs. All in Denver for September, haven't even started to look at October yet! Neil Last edited by thedutymon; 08-13-2015 at 11:12 AM.

Found out one of my favorite (and probably the first metal band I listened to) Underoath is going on a Rebirth tour next year after being on hiatus for a few years. Only problem is I'm currently at school and they aren't playing near where I am...looks like I'm going to have to be "sick" that day. I know it's a bit early, but is it ever too early to look forward to a concert?

Brothers Osborne is one of the opening acts on Darius Ruckers current tour. They are from our hometown. Have met them several times when they come home at the local watering hole. Nice guys who are making their way in country music.

Went to see Mark Pickerel & His Praying Hands (Screaming Trees), and Star Anna at the Brick in Roslyn for the DNR fireman's relief fund in Washington during this unprecedented season. When Star laid into her cover of "Play with Fire" (Stones) the room was electric...

Hot
Quote:
Great, sultry rendition of "play with fire"  Though I never had heard of Star Anna, I always enjoy discovering new music. And you sure are right about the wildfire season in Washington. It was an unreal, dry hot summer, and unfortunately , our forests are hyper susceptible  Some real life heroes died fighting the fires this year. The fund raiser sounds like a great idea.

I saw the Psychedelic Furs last week. Still sound as good as they did when they played 1980s alternative stuff.

Been to only 3 this year. The first was a 2 day event at the Horseshoe in Columbus Ohio. It was the Buckeye Country Superfest The Lineup was
Saturday, June 20 Blake Shelton Rascal Flatts Lee Brice Tyler Farr Cassadee Pope Sunday, June 21 Kenny Chesney Keith Urban Cole Swindell David Nail Parmalee All the acts were excellent except for David Nail. He played maybe 40 minutes and acted as though he would have loved to have been anywhere else. I know someone who saw him with Darius Rucker a couple weeks ago in Dayton and he said he was the same. About a month and a half ago saw Night Ranger, Foreigner and Def Leppard at The Shott in Columbus. All bands were great, with Foreigner being the best of them. Have to say though, that Joe Elliot's voice has seen some better days. Then again, I am not in my 20's anymore either. The last show I saw was last night. I went to get some stuff a few days ago at Menard's and saw a box to sign up for a contest run by the local tv stations. I had no idea what the prizes were. They called me the next day and said I had won Home Free Christmas concert tickets. I had never heard of Home Free, but my wife said they are an acapella group that won a tv show called The Sing Off. She wanted to go, so I took her and was prepared for the most boring night of my life as I am more into 70's rock. By the time I left the auditorium they had me hooked. It was one of the most enjoyable concerts I have been to. I would recommend that anyone go see them.

Going to see '68 open for Fit for A King later this month. I am mainly going for '68. It always shocks me when I remember '68 is a two-piece band.
I listened to their vocalist's (Josh Scogin) old band The Chariot, Josh was also the vocalist for Norma Jean. Last edited by cool-vintage; 12-14-2015 at 09:46 PM.

Geez! love the ol rock n rollers, but never been to one of them. Its been a number of years, maybe 2003-2006?? But i was in Panama City Beach and i think it was sunshine of my love' they play and some country dude was the headliner- i left as he started, cuz he sounded drunk as shit. The day after , guys at work were near front row, and said the same thing.
Aside, anyone got those Adele tickets? or did those scalpers got them all for 10-12k a pop. HeLLO?? it will be old and gone by the time she visits our area.

Last Friday night took my two daughters to see the Offspring, with Gob opening up. First time for Gob, several times for the Offspring. Sound was shit in the venue, but the show was hard driving, lots of fun. Became a bit of a Gob fan after seeing them.

Got the privilege to see Paul Simon this last Wednesday. Also had a blast at Billy Joel a week ago. I enjoyed Billy Joel a little bit more, better sound and I knew more of his music.
