Last concert: Saturday 14 December. Shapeshifter supported by Concord Dawn and Paradigm...some damn good NZ drum & bass...danced from 12 til 5:20...it was still going when we left...watched the sun come up...I'm still sore from it

Before that was Salmonella Dub with DLT and Fat Freddy's Drop. Had the most fun there, was an awesome night.

Best international live act: Incubus (in March I think). Before that I saw Live and Sugar Ray in 2000....

Would have gone to Tool earlier in the year but had no money and it was a shit venue.

I get to see NZ acts pretty often now that I'm 18 since they always play at some club in Wellington. International acts not so often though

Can't wait til Radiohead comes here

ditto. Incubus is the best live show I've ever seen, actually met them in a local club, was cool. The best time I saw them was earlier this year in Seattle, and Hoobastank opened for them. Hoobastank rocked the house too, and I think I was the only one in the audience who was rockin' out and singing along hahaha.

Stone Temple Pilots are pretty close behind Incubus. Dave Mathews Band are also fantastic live. They are just phenomenal musicians.

Worst live show EVER: Red Hot Chili Peppers. They suxors at teh musik

Most recent live event was Our Lady Peace. Great band really good show. They were the opening band for Creed (along with StereoFuse), and I paid $60 for the ticket, and left before Creed hit the stage. I hate Creed. StereoFuse was good too.

I also see local bands all the time in pubs and whatnot.

I also really liked Sevendust live.

Last concert: July 25th Martin Sexton, Guster and John Mayer. AWESOME show. Open venue, but with a giant tent, and it rained like there was no tomorrow. Not to mention both acts are hugely musically inclined and have good stage presence.

Best concert ever: Not sure I can pick...

Worst concert ever: Baja Men. I was on top of Mt. Washington in Pittsburgh and they were playing at the venue just below us by the river. We could hear "Who Let The Dogs Out" and we didn't even pay to suffer the experience. Oh, did I mention that it happened just this past summer?

I never have. I don't like crowds. But if Smashing Pumpkins were still alive, or Ben Folds came 'round, I think I might go.

The last concert I was at was Pink Floyd at the Silverdome and it was the best one I've ever been too. ZZTop at the Castle about 18 years ago was pretty damn close though.

Last show(s) for me was going to see the band Gene 3 times in a weekend. :coolguy: Each at a different SoCal venue. We got to meet them the second and third nights.

This was the first show of three, at the House of Blues on Sunset Blvd, in Los Angeles. I was at this show, but nowhere near enough to the stage to be in this pic:


edit:

This is the second show, at the Glasshouse, in Pomona. I'm just out of fram to the left (It'd be too dark to see me anyways... )

And this is the soundcheck for the third at some dive bar in Silver Lake. (I was still waiting in line outside...)
