I've seen Sonic Youth.
I wish I've kept stubs. If I tried making a list it would be a trainwreck trying to remember all the bands I've seen. All the multi-band concerts I've been to makes it difficult.
But I'd bet I'm the only straight guy anyone's met who has paid to see Tori Amos multiple times.
Roling Stones
Manhattan Transfers
Tom Petty
Peter Gabriel (dreadful)
Morphine
Joan Baez
Lou Reed
Foo Fighters
Widespread Panic
Southern Culture on the skids
Squirrel Nut Zippers
Steel Pulse
Morphine is good at least that one album "cure for pain"
My first concert was Shaun Cassidy
I think I still might have a little gay in me left over from that.
but you're not Rob. who did you steal this from?
Gosh, I've been to many concerts but the highlight was
Queen - Freddy Mercury had an incredible voice, he even sang opera.
Wow, Queen!
How could I have forgotten Tom Petty?

I have to agree CJ. There was something extremely charismatic about the band, especially Mercury. I've seen The Rolling Stones and The Grateful Dead, but the Queen concert sort of haunts me - in a good way.
<CLUNK>
I had that same Shaun Cassidy album.
I'm afraid we have both disclosed too much this evening, My Friend.

Me too! I remember the very last song "We are the champions" where
everyone lit their cigarette lighters and sang along....I still get goose bumps
remembering it.
Fleetwood Mac during the Rumours tour - Indy.
My date: current CEO of Burberry, Angela Ahrendts - I knew her then ...
Nice! She makes millions now....

Yep, big bucks!
Now back to our regularly scheduled programing...
I saw STYX and Supertramp in Indy
I saw Eric Clapton in St Louis, Aug 29th, 4 days after the death of Stevie Ray Vaughn who was touring with him. I missed a legend.
