Music Concerts/ Groups / Singers You Have Seen Perform ? Your Take on Them (page 3)

Spectre

The first concert I saw was when I was 12: Neil Diamond

Later on in order as much as I can remember: B.B.King (multiple times)

Deep Purple

Yes (multiple times)

Pink Floyd

Def Leppard (not a fan, went with friends at the last second)

Day On The Green in Oakland with Poison, Whitesnake and Motley Crue as headliner.

Motley Crue later on. One of the funnest shows I've been to. It was outdoors and raining in a small venue, but you were there partying with the Crue.

Nine Inch Nails (multiple times and I'm seeing them again in September)

Go-Go's

Bow Wow Wow

Marilyn Manson (multiple times and waiting to see more)

Ozzfest with Manson, Disturbed, Korn and of course Ozzy.

Tori Amos

David Bowie. If a show can be described as beautiful, this would be it.

I'm sure I'm forgetting a bunch.

Wow, Spectre my second concert was Deep Purple as well, in 1974. My first was Black Sabbath. The third was Johnny Winter and Humble Pie was in there somewhere. I saw lots of concerts. My favorites are George Harrison/Billy Preston/Ravi Shankar and Orchestra. Then Neil Young and next was 70's Soul Jam with Carl Carlton, The Dramatics, The Chi-lites and The Stylistics. But I've seen many more. Oh, another favorite was Kenny Wayne Shepherd. That kid was magic and he had such stage presence and magnetism, I thought the whole venue, outdoors and free admission, would just take off. With him were Blue Oyster Cult. I saw them as a teenager, too. Then Deep Purple played last, but we had to leave because I had Mickey then and I needed to pick him up at the babysitters, but I could hear Space Truckin' as I walked to the car.

Spectre

No Steppenwolf, FHN?

I'm disappointed.

No Steppenwolf, FHN?
I'm disappointed.

You think you're dissappointed?I was spellbound just from seeing John Kay in his leather jacket on American Bandstand doing Hey, Lawdy Mamma when I was like 10. I can't imagine what he would have done to me if I had seen him live and acutally understood the power he had over me.

The Rolling Stones live were awesome

I had the chance to see them when I was 16. I was invited by a guy I knew who was 26. He made it clear he would expect to be compensated with sex. So, I decided not to see the Stones.

Just a few:

Janes Addiction: Best live performance ever!!!

Ramones - Amazing. Lots of older people in the crowd. =)

Mudhoney - just OK. I got beat up in the Mosh PIt.

Sky Cries Mary - Awesome. Very unique. Local band, small shows.

Modest Mouse - cost: 5 dollars and a can of food. Totally worth it. Would pay to see them now..

Tori Amos - I love her!!!!!
