I'm the king of asking people if they want to go to a concert, only to have them say, "I don't know who that is"...I just don't share the same music taste as many of my friends...

But here's my list

Rob Zombie
Korn
Nine Inch Nails
BB King
Jimmy Eat World
Appleseed Cast <----don't actually remember this show - too drunk
Ben Kweller - twice, once was a solo acoustic show that was amazing
Rooney
The Polyphonic Spree

Local bands in Lincoln, Omaha, Kansas City
Danger Bob
Ruskabank
Ultimate Fakebook
Pomeroy
Copus
The Neil Wannamaker Carmody Band


The best show was the Polyphonic Spree - happened just about a month ago. Was UNBELIEVABLE. Of course if you have 23 people on stage, you probably better be crazy intense or you won't last very long...

yall have seen a millions shows and they're all great.
here are the bigger shows i've seen:

Dave Matthews Band
Emmylou Harris
Bo Diddley
Tom Petty
Kings of Leon
Pipefitters (pipewrenchers?) <-- Lou Diamond Phillips brought his band to Ft. Campbell one year back in the early 90s. i'm just counting this one as a big show because he was in Young Guns.
...

i open up for/play with a lot of bands, so i see a lot of local/regional acts.

i'd like to see Led Zeppelin, Drive-By Truckers, and The Black Crowes. i haven't yet seen them.

macallan25 11-14-2007 08:20 PM

Black Crowes are the shit in concert....although it sucks that Marc Ford isn't with them anymore. Same with DBT......very good still, but not as good without Jason Isbell.

Zeppelin hasn't toured since 1977. Probably going to be difficult to see them.

cheerfulgreek 11-15-2007 12:38 AM

I haven't been to a concert in a while but I would love to see Cracker, the Eagles, and Blur.

SigmaChiCard 11-15-2007 02:31 AM

Don't know if I ever mentioned this, but I got to see Amy Winehouse last March in New York on the David Letterman show....it was before I'd heard her rehab song too much, so I thought it was good, plus there is something about a girl with tattoos

Zeppelin plays Dec 10th, London's O2 arena. it's one and done, though.

and i'm fairly certain you can't get tickets at face value anymore.

Feist in Louisville
 
I saw Feist a few nights ago & posted tons of pictures from the show. Check it out at BackseatSandbar.com

The show was amazing. It was the second time I've seen her, but this time I was in the second row, virtually center stage.

Local bands:

Inner Frequency- I'm practically their #1 fan. I've seen them more times them I can count. Just saw them play tonight

Got in free to the Peter Bjorn & John show last week & it was amazing. Posted Photos at BackseatSandbar.com. They were crazy, running all over the stage.
