Who have you seen?

[Abstract]

OK this may end up in little more than my list is cooler than yours but which bands/artists have you seen live and how old are you?

I'm 24. I have seen Foo Fighters, Green Day, James Brown, Alicia Keys, Gomez, Embrace, Nas, Snoop Doggy Dogg, Razorlight, Magic Numbers, Travis, The Game, Joss Stone (shudder), Kanye West, Killers, Dizzee Rascal, 50 cent ,Athlete, Keane, Queens of the Stone Age, Kaiser Chiefs.

Think thats all.

[Maritime Q-Scout]

Being from a small town in Nova Scotia I haven't seen many mainstream acts, I'm trying to think of bands/artists that have done something on the national stage

Tragically Hip
Beachboys
Bryan Adams
Great Big Sea
April Wine
Trooper
Jimmy Rankin
The Fables
Rawlins Cross
Bruce Gouthro
Gordie Sampson
Sloan

that's not close to all, but I won't get into the smaller bands or ones that were nominated or won ECMAs but not known outside of the East Coast

[BlackArcher101]

Abstract, that's quite the variety you got there. Top 40 music kinda guy?

I've seen: Nickelback, Toby Keith, Ozzy, Metallica, Finger Eleven, Default.... does George Carlin count?

[Abstract]

Well Alicia Keys was with the ex and most of the others were at a festival here last summer. Going again this year so i'll be able to add The Who and thee RHCP amongst others

[Inferno]

I'm 24 but I've only seen Metallica and Billy Idol with Godsmack opening for Metallica and Bif Naked opening for Billy Idol.

I heard but didnt see Godsmack since I was waiting for my sister, her boyfriend, and my cousin to show up which they already had but didnt tell me to go to my seat after meeting Metallica. I wasnt too worried about it though because besides a few songs I'm not much of a Godsmack fan. Bif Naked I was expecting to be a borefest but she was actually pretty entertaining and any chick who says Metallica is her favorite band is cool in my books.

I hope to see Disturbed and Rob Zombie someday but unless they make more Canadian stops that wont happen.

[Engine09]

I'm 31, been to so many shows I couldn't possible list them all here. It would take me over an hour if I started typing now, I have saved all of my ticket stubs though. I'll organize those someday.

I saw Allanah Myles in the elevator at the McDonald Hotel in Edmonton. I'm a friendly person so I smiled and said hello. She ignored me. In sort of a spooky coincidence, about 20 years before my brush with Allanah Myles my mom got onto an elevator in Sydney, Australia with another rude rock star named Stevie Wonder. My dear mother smiled at him but the sonofabitch didn't even look at her.

[Frank the Tank]

Wow. Almost hard to remember them all. I'm 35, and in no particular order;

On a related note....if any of you are interested in seeing goo goo dolls/counting crows dual bill this summer...start bombarding both of their websites with requests to make a tour stop in calgary...im worried to death they'll look over us. Those two bands would be one amazing night.
