The Cranberries (3 or 4 times)
Toad the Wet Sprocket
Counting Crows
Live (2 times)
Madonna (2 times)
Depeche Mode (2 times)
U2
Republica
3-11 (4 times - awesome in concert)
Bush
The Wallflowers
Cake

The Cure (Robert Smith was old and fat, kind of sad)
Duran Duran (SWEET!)
Bow Wow Wow
The Psychadelic Furs
Peter Murphy
Violent Femmes
Beck
Smashing Pumpkins (before they broke up)
Garbage (3 times)

Jet
Presidents of the United States of America
Eels
Siouxsie and the Banshees
Linkin Park (5 times, once with Jay-Z - that was f-in awesome)
No Doubt
Alanis Morissette
Everclear
Staind
Static-x
Deadsy (horrible!!!)
STP (before they broke up, but after Weiland layed off the sauce)
POD
Hoobastank
Jurassic 5


I'm sure there are more bands, I just can't think of them right now.

ETA: Pink Floyd (How could I forget the PF?)
Veruca Salt
Goldfinger
Marky Mark + FB
New Found Glory
Blindside

Time for an update! On the 27th I'm going to a radio sponsored concert with:
Billy Idol! (YES! He's my reason for going)
Devo - The husband says they are good, I'm reserving judgement.
Blondie
Psychadelic Furs (again)
Twister Sister (meh)


And....wait for it, wait for it....


REO Speedwagon.
Sweet.

Updates:
Billy Idol was kick ass. He started off White Wedding acoustically...it was AWESOME.
Devo - Ok, so the husband and I thought they were not as good as they used to be.
Blondie - she was good, getting older though.
Psychadelic Furs - Were good, sound pretty much the same as always
Twister Sister - Was really good actually...Dee Snyder is funny as hell and had a great personality on stage.
REO Speedwagon - were really good for a group that made it big in 1973, they were rockin it.

And special guest was: War - that's right...they did Lowrider, Cisco kid and Why can't we be friends to open up the concert.


And, I just got tickets to see Coldplay! YAY! I'm so excited! Has anyone seen them before? Are they as good as I hear they are?

Mary J was OUTSTANDING!! A must see! (me likey Robin Thicke too, David Young was OK)

Maxwell - HE'S BACK and was worth every penny! After 2 encores the crowd didn't want to leave!!

(Jazmine Sullivan - Has a very strong voice, and a decent set. I didn't know any of the songs other than "Need U Bad" I felt she should have been on tour with multiple artists. I found myself wishing she would hurry up and get off the stage so Maxwell could come on)
