Looks like you have quite a diverse taste in music there. I would've liked to see System of a Down, The Offspring, and Disturbed.NightStalker666 said:Not too long of a list I don't think but here goes:

Yeah, I've been privileged enough to catch some good ones I guess.

For the record, System of a Down was on a whole other level performance wise than any band I've seen. The first time I saw them was for Mezmerise and only their second show on tour. Had great seats, energy was unbelievable. They never play a bad song, it's as simple as that.

The second time I saw them though was for Hyponitize almost exactly a year later and, man oh man, again they were godlike but this time even better. Was on the floor of the Saddledome (closed hockey arena) in Calgary. Killswitch opened for them.... and then they proceeded to play a legendary show in which I got a black eye, drenched in alcohol, blood, sweat, drink,, naked girls everywhere, security guards getting swarmed and overrun with people from the seats pouring on the floor, the entire building was hotboxed from all the weed being smoked. Anyways, good memories for sure.

Disturbed I saw with Puddle of Mudd at a huge showing in Dallas and they were great as always, and OffSpring I was a bit young (12 or 13) but still remember it vividly because of how offensive and downright shocking Americana was to everyone at the time, and of course how I was singing along the whole time.

Anyways, with all that money, I could have very well bought a car or a house even, or own every 360 game. But the memories were/are definitely worth it for most. Bands aren't around forever, and neither are you, gotta get out and enjoy life sometimes :D - headspin

I'm looking to add to that list soon also.
I've got tickets to see Theory of a Deadman, Hinder, and Motley Crue in March
and how about this one... Willie Nelson (April 8th 09) - so looking forward to that - the guy never stops

One more thing. I'm jealous of go tribes list. I wish I was born sooner, most of those are bands I'd give my right arm to see.
