bands you've seen live?

[HollywoodLeo]

Having seen them live as well, they are much better in person. Did they cover any Mettalica songs like they did when I saw them in Seattle?

Did their drummer do that ****ing kick ass best drum solo I've ever seen/heard solo for you as well?

[Porter]

Their drummer is ****ing ridiculous. Enough Said.

[nick]

That is a bad ass list, Nick.

I left in all the bands I want to see live.

How is Nightmare of You live? I love that band.

They were ok. I saw them open each time I do believe, so it wasn't anything too special. I found it interesting that some of their members were in Rival Schools or Quicksand or some old band...

We saw Depeche Mode at the end of July and they were awesome. They played a lot of my favorites from Black Celebration, Music for the Masses, and Violator along with a few older songs and about half of the new album.

I've got tickets to see A Place to Bury Strangers again in October. It will be my 3rd time seeing them. They're playing a venue that only holds 194 people. They played there the 1st time I saw them and it sold out. The 2nd time they played a slightly bigger place so I'm surprised that they're going back to the smaller place.

I may see Health for the 2nd time. I added them to my list, but I haven't bought tickets yet. They're playing Providence and Boston, but I'm unsure which show I should go to. I don't like the venue/location for the Providence show at all. I will probably go to the Boston show. I don't know. That's it for now.

We saw Editors/Antlers at the House of Blues in Boston a couple weeks ago. I've got tickets to see The Big Pink / A Place to Bury Strangers at the end of this month and tickets to see Liars again in April. There's another concert in April I may go to, but I'm not sure yet.

The APTBS and Liars shows were awesome. We've got tickets to see Massive Attack in May and Health again in June.

Going to Edgefest in Little Rock in two months

The following will be there

Godsmack
Rob Zombie
Papa Roach
Five Finger Death Punch
Drowning Pool
Hell Yeah
Bullet for My Valentine
Lacuna Coil

They added Seether to the line up at the last second.

And I probably won't be seeing Lacuna Coil because they're on the 2nd stage playing at the same time as Rob Zombie. (Although that is a very tough decision and I may change my mind while I'm there. I'll see)

[HollywoodLeo]

List updated. Godsmack, Papa Roach, and Zombie were the 3 best acts of the show, but they were all great.

Seether was much better than the last time I saw them when they played more covers than their own stuff.

Thats all I can remember for now

Sounds like we agree on a lot of bands. Try to see Casting Crowns and 10th Ave North sometime. Also, Jeremy Camp, Stephen Curtis Chapman, Leeland, Brandon Heath, and Aaron Schust if you can.
We went to Alaska a few years back with Michael W. Smith. He is a fascinating guy to talk to. He's going to be playing in Iowa in October and we'll see him there again.

I saw Stephen Curtis Chapman at Magic Springs (local theme park) a couple years ago.

He didn't play any songs I recognized, though. (I'm more into his 90s stuff and haven't heard any of his newer albums)

[catman]

We saw SCC play with Jeremy Camp at the Iowa State Fair last summer -- he was awesome.
