I have only been to ONE so far...which sucks. But I saw Dream Theater/Iron Maiden and it was very very sick.

Upcoming concerts I will be attending:

Little Brothers final show :(

Surfer Blood (if im living in DC by then)

and hopefully Beastie Boys if the album comes out this year.

Dream Theater has been the best concert this year. But im seeing Lady Gagas monster ball August 19th and 21st so that will be the best for A LONG time.

It's fantastic :D. A little short, but man do those guys know how to put on a show.

I saw the New Pornographers about two weeks back. I liked the performance, but the venue sucked, and the show wasn't sold out. Neko had plane troubles that day, but they still sounded pretty great without her, when everyone got up close to the stage and rocked out.

i want to say muse but it was rather disappointing, mainly due to the lackluster setlist.

the best i've seen this year is a close up between faith no more, gossip and skunk anansie.

pearl jam wasn't all that was cracked up to be

Well this year none but within a year I went to the mayhem fest in VA at Nissan theater. I saw lots of bands but I liked Trivium (they were actually pretty funny) and Behemoth on the secondary stages and on the main stage Slayer was really good, Bullet for my valentine was pretty... not good. Then Kill switch Engaged was also pretty good. Then I actually left before Manson came on (so did 50 % of the people there lol) just because I don't like them that much. His band doesn't really fit with the rest of the other bands at all either.

I haven't been to a single concert this year, much to chagrin. It's going to drive me insane.

The only concert I've seen this year was Iced Earth and it was fantastic, the best concert tied with Judas Priest I've seen.

Was going to see U2, but they postponed until next summer. Bono got sick. I work at Qwest Field in Seattle. Would have been nice to work and see a concert. Not a huge U2 fan, but it would have been a big show.

I've only seen Rush this year, and that was awesome. I'm going to see Slayer with Megadeth and Testament in two days, so that should be good.

Imogen Heap. It was one of the best days of my life. After the concert I actually met Imogen. We had a small chat and she signed my shirt.

If I could get tickets to a Lady Gaga concert, then that might be even better. :P

You can probably find face value priced tickets on craigslist and stub hub. Just check everyday. There will be some there.

They are doing one in Anaheim on September 23rd, which is the night I'm seeing them :D. Sadly though it will only be my second concert this year. I saw Bad Religion in March or something, and they were awesome.

Awesome show except for Miaden's setlist...was missing way too much good stuff.
