Just curious, what are some of the bands you’ve seen perform live? This is my list of significant bands I’ve seen live. I’ve seen many, many opening acts, but I’m thinking actually established bands for this list.
One festival saw…Teenage Fanclub, The Breeders, The Smashing Pumpkins, The Ramones…short festival sets but it’s hard to go past that…Not a bad festival and a good time.
I’m going in October to see Otoboke Beaver with a Brisbane band Whalehouse in the city. First gig for a couple of years so pretty excited. Love the live music. So much fun.
I saw in the 90’s very much live bands at the roskilde festivals, denmark, nomeansno, Apocalyptica, rage against the machine, young gods, the notwist… and was often in clubs to join concerts, radiohead, stereolab, smooth music, my last concert till now was Marie Boine, 15 years ago
I haven’t seen that many artists but I really enjoy going to gigs for bands I love. I would go more often if my music tastes were more popular
I’ve seen:
Paul McCartney
Manic Street Preachers
Rufus Wainwright (2)
Suede (5)
Divine Comedy (3)
Radiohead
Johnny Greenwood
Sting
Tigercub
Black Peaks
Hans Zimmer
Steve Hackett
The Darkness
Toska
There’s a bunch of other small local bands and a bunch of post rock bands I’ve seen at a festival
Radiohead, Tool, The Cure, Xiu Xiu. These multiple times. Plus many, many more. Most of my favourite gigs I’ve seen abroad, because only very few bands come here play live. I don’t know why.
Oh so many let’s see how much I can remember… AC/DC, phish, moe, widespread panic, against me, Green Day, indigenous, blue October and also Justin ferstenfeld by himself, bare naked ladies, guster, ludo, ghost mice, white horse… I think that’s all I can remember
I am going to see an old school punk band called circle jerks soon though
