What bands have you seen in your lifetime?

[NutBucket]

I've seen Ray Manzarek do a one-man show in the back room of a guitar shop maybe a decade ago. That counts as seeing The Doors right?

[amish]

NIN
lalapalooza '97 with tool, korn, prodigy, and snoop dogg
moe
string cheese @ red rocks
yonder mountain

I believe those are the only ones I went to. I'm not a big fan of concerts.

the Nine Inch Nails concert was the best by far. I was down on the floor about three rows of people back from the stage. it was hot, it was loud, and it was powerful. When Trent threw water on us it was undescribable.

NIN @ Santa Barbara Bowl, 2009

GF caught the water bottle after Robin Finke threw it off stage. We met up with the band manager after the show and asked him if we could get the bottle signed. He said the guys were all PTFO, but took the bottle and got it signed for us. We met up with him at the Mountain View show the next day and picked up the bottle.

Greatest live band ever.

When I saw them @ LITS 2008, last show of the tour (where allesandro was leaving), allesandro threw his keyboard offstage.

The guy who caught it ran into allesandro after the show and got him to sign the keys O_O
