I forgive you.

I really haven't gone to many concerts, most of you will have no idea who some of these are, but they are: (roughly in order)

Carlos Montoya
The Kingston Trio
The Brothers Four
The New Christie Minstrels
The Smothers Brothers
The Beatles
The Righteous Bros.
The Beach Boys
Mitch Ryder & the Detroit Wheels
Big Brother & The Holding Co.
Country Joe & the Fish
Creedence Clearwater Revival
Eric Clapton (Blind Faith)
Neil Diamond (OK, cut the laughter, it was a sacrifice I made for love)
Elvis Presley
Jim Stafford
Dire Straits
Journey (not for me--I took my daughter)
Queensryche
G3 (Satriani, Vai, Petrucci)
Jonny Lang
The Rolling Stones

I regret never having seen the Floyd. I became a fan just after they passed thru Denver on the DSoT Tour in '88. In 1994, when they came here for the Division Bell tour, it happened to be on the day my daughter was married. When Roger came here in 2000, I was out of town on vacation.

Did Stafford do Wildwood Weed?

I haven't seen many concerts at all, mainly due to my large-crowd-phobia (I'm sure there's a word for that), but here's my list, such as it is:

Foghat
The Edgar Winter Group
Bob Dylan
Iggy Pop
Asleep at the Wheel
Pure Prairie League
Rush
Billy Idol
Pat Metheny
Pink Floyd
The Smashing Pumpkins
Garbage

Yes, Stafford did it. Also My Girl Bill, Spiders & Snakes and a few others. "I Ain't Sharin' Sharon" was my fav.

Fat Elvis -- 1972 Las Vegas Hilton

I suffer from that same malady, cheri.

Before I begin, I'm jealous of all of you. You've seen way more concerts than me and also most of you have seen Pink Floyd in concert. I was 14 during the Division Bell tour and more into Slayer and Sepultura. I paid no attention to them then because I was a dumb kid. Anway:

1. Lollapalooza '96 (Metallica, Soundgarden, The Ramones, Rancid, Wu-Tang Clan, Screaming Trees, etc.)
2. Ozzfest '97 (Tool were the highlight)
3. Rolling Stones
4. Ozzfest '98 (it sucked donkeys)
5. Roger Waters (In The Flesh, the best EVER)

honorable mention: Radiohead were supposed to do 2 weekend shows in 2001 at a park in my hometown. However, the park stage started to sink due to the rain and both shows were cancelled. That really pissed me off and they didn't do replacement shows, I just got a refund. I was looking forward to seeing them.

Question to Bride Of A Bull: How great was attending Live Aid? Must have been awesome! I have footage of Queen on vhs from that and they put on an incredible set.

Where'd you see The Beatles stratman?

I saw them on the Ed Sullivan Show. Does that count?

Did it pay off?

Where and when?

You went to a beatles concert but not for a Floyd? You should be ashamed of yourself.....
