^Hell yes to Motorhead and Gogol a few posts up! Never seen Motorhead live but they are KICK ASS so I imagine it must be awesome, but I've seen Gogol live and similarly I didn't know much of their material (they were co-headlining with Primus and I was there for Primus) but they were fun as hell anyway. Oh yeah, trust me they kicked ass live as well. ;> I really wanted to be in the first rows... Though my friends kept saying it's instant suicide. I should have known it's suicide for them. /sigh Oh well. Gogol was fun indeed, not the type of music I'd go and listen to myself, but still awesome to party to with a big crowd. Wish I could go to a hardcore metal festival like you, there's rarely ever anything here. :< /envy -------------------- |

I saw Seven Nations, a Celtic rock band. They were pretty good if you like hard rock meets traditional celtic music XD (I regret bringing only enough money to buy a ticket :p)

Sadly, I've never been to a concert in my life. I would have gone to see Trans-Siberian Orchestra perform "Beethoven's Last Night", except I had no ride out to the show and back...

recently saw weedeater and three other bands (fight amp, bison b.c., and saviors) in a small room with maybe 50 people in attendance. for most of the night the whole thing felt really casual and laid back - the guys from weedeater hung around in plain sight and chilled with audience members before their set, and watched the other bands play. (dixie dave, weedeater's vocalist, was standing like right in front of me during saviors' set, headbanging and fistpumping with everyone else.) people didn't crowd around the stage at all for the first three bands' sets, they were just kind of sparsely scattered around the room. the supporting acts all kicked ass though, especially fight amp. damn fight amp was good.
then things got pretty zany when weedeater started playing. there was no railing or anything, the stage was maybe 2 feet off the ground, i was right in the front and so damn close to weedeater's vocalist i was worried i might accidentally hit him in the face while fistpumping. it was hot and sweaty and people were going fucking nuts and the sound was so loud and fuzzy and distorted you couldn't make out a word the vocalist was saying (that's normal during songs, but you couldn't in between songs either!) and the drums and bass pretty much drowned out the guitar. all of this probably sounds lame and like i'm criticizing but it was actually one of the awesomest shows i've been to. i think weedeater is one of the few metal bands where the drummer and bassist both have absolutely IMMENSE stage presence and the poor guitarist is barely even noticeable, haha. (to be fair the bassist is also the vocalist, but still.) This post has been edited by Abufi: Oct 5 2011, 04:17 PM -------------------- |

I last went to see Katy Perry. She was absolutely amazing, she's so good live and the whole tour concept was really good. Thoroughly enjoyed myself, she is a quality entertainer.

Saw the Red Hot Chili Peppers at the O2 Arena last Thursday. Was AMAZING. Seriously. Had been waiting to see those guys since I was like 12, and to say they didn't disappoint would be an understatement. Played all the classics; Can't Stop, (everyone went mental), Scar Tissue, Dani California, Under The Bridge, (Anthony Keidis messed up the first couple of lines, but the whole crowd starting singing over him. Was pretty epic), Californication, By The Way, (mental, again ). Not much new stuff though, only counted 4 songs off the new album. Not that I'm complaining mind you. The lighting and stage effects were really cool too. Made a proper show out of it
Then they came back and played this massive half an hour encore, including Chad Smith doing this amazing drum solo, and a cover of Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere by Niel Young. Its one of my favourite songs of all time, so to see it being played by my favourite band of all time was immense. Only problem was cause it was a cover nobody else new the words, so I was there singing along all by myself. Got a few strange looks, but its all good And I missed Skrillex. My friend went to see them yesterday. She said they were amazing This post has been edited by Flamer: Nov 18 2011, 12:21 AM -------------------- |

Wasn't the most exciting thing in the world but I went to a Weird Al concert not too long ago when he came to town. Figured it would be fun.

I got to go see Halestorm last night, with two bands I hadn't heard of as the opening acts (Cold Harbour and Ashes Remain, I think) in some club/bar/whatever. I think Halestorm gives one of the best concerts I've ever seen (in comparison, the other two bands were kinda 'meh'), and Lzzy's voice is amazing! Even though I wasn't on the floor against the rail, I managed to get on a balcony against the rail (finally got to catch one of Lzzy's bracelets that she threw into the crowd after the show because of that spot) and the only thing my view was obstructed by was a pole; I didn't see much of the keyboardists in Halestorm and one of the opening bands, but I didn't care much. |D

I went to see Yashin for my birthday last year.
Unfortunately, I haven't been to any concerts since then. I should probably fix that. :c -------------------- |

went to the A389 recordings anniversary bash (small extreme music fest) a couple weeks ago. saw a bunch of bands - weekend nachos, magrudergrind, pulling teeth, integrity, so on. eyehategod was headlining the night but my friend and our folks dragged us home before they played. ah well, another time!
most violent show i've been to thus far. crowd was bananas, stagedivers everywhere, circle pit was ridiculous, etc. fun as hell. -------------------- |
