Of all the things there are to do on this planet, there's only one thing that I must do- Live!

Trout Fishing in America-- I think I was in high school, but I am not sure.

Ozz Fest-- I don't remember the year, but I do remember that it was free.

The Offspring, Sum 41, and some other bands (which did not impress/interest me nearly as much as those two)-- one summer when I was an undergrad.

Rob Zombie and Alice Cooper-- early summer 2010.

Easier to say who I didn't' get to see: The Beatles, Jimi, The Doors w/ Morrison, Janis.  Pretty much everyone else I've worked or seen.  Including two of the shows in KC at the Memorial.  Both of those were Dylan in the early 90s.

One of the most interesting ones I have been to was Rickie Lee Jones at the Pasadena Playhouse in the early 1980s.  We were up close and personal.  Man, that woman could drink.  She polished off a large bottle of Jack Daniels during the performance.  Didn't even phase her.

I've only seen Britney Spears in concert. The first time was in 2000 and the second was just last year. Wow, 11 years apart and she's still in the game.

 :embarrassed: The Spice Girls when I was 10/11 and Steps (what was i thinking?!) around that time too.

Thankfully it gets MUCH better: Muse (twice), Clapton, the Cream Reunion concert at the Albert hall a few years ago, the Led Zeppelin reunion at the O2 in '07, Bruce Springsteen last year, and I remember seeing this folksy band in a dingy grotty subterranean dive that went onto become Mumford and Sons.

Hopefully my later musical tastes redeem me somewhat!  :P

K Style Addiction

when i was younger i saw Slipknot once w/ my cousin and his friend and another time i saw Slayer (eek!).
All I can say is that my life is pretty plain, I like watchin' the puddles gather rain.

Despite all my rage, I'm still just a rat in a cage

Anyone who has Amanda Palmer and Leo Kottke on the same list as Slayer, and has B.B. King backed with Dweezil - well you've got my vote.

I forgot about one of the shows that I was so fortunate and thankful to see, it was his and hers last tour of there lives, Johnny Cash and June Carter with daughter Rosanne Cash who I'm pretty sure is still alive.

She is still alive, I saw her a couple of years ago.

Rosanne is still doing what's she's always done, which tragically is 'too country to really be rock, to rock to be liked by the country crowd.'  Last year she played at the HSBG fest in SF doing songs that her dad thought were 'important'.  Pretty cool stuff.

Answers are easy. It's asking the right questions which is hard.

Be positive in the fact that there is always one person in a worse situation then you.
