So I saw this band over the weekend in Bethel Woods, the place where Woodstock was held. Great show, great venue. Really kicked in halfway through the show. Very talented band and he lets them all have a turn. Some really good covers. U2, Garth Brooks, Pink Floyd, Whitney Houston/ Dolly Parton and more. Lots of hotties rocking the country girl look, boots and a cowboy hat. Some didn’t pull it off though. Lots of patriots on hand, and it was good to stomp on the holy ground of all those dirty hippies from the 60’s. Great time! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

frank 2,145 Posted August 17, 2023 The last couple of days, I thought I might be going to see Mercyful Fate in November. Then I realized the concert was last year. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gepetto 988 Posted August 17, 2023 I just saw Def Leppard and Motley Crue Sunday night. Def Leppard was really sharp/good. Motley Crue doesn't sound solid, but still entertained. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IGotWorms 3,315 Posted August 17, 2023 I’m going to see modest mouse later this year. Not really a fan of their newer stuff though, I have fairly expectations, really.

It's great traveling as needed to see limited tours that skip the PNW. I've met up w my son in SLC and DEN for a couple different shows. Nice short flights from Seattle and Portland.

BunnysBastatrds 1,920 Posted November 22, 2023 The Stones are playing in April at The New Orleans Jazz Fest & Heritage at the New Orleans fairgrounds. I’ve seen them twice at the Superdome. I’m contemplating it, but I’m to old deal with those large crowds for big name acts. I’m a Jazz Fest veteran. Have been going since I was seven and never missed a year until Covid, my fractured leg, and bands I’ve already seen a few times. I might. This is what the crowds look like for the big names… 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nice short flights from Seattle and Portland. It's fun as hell traveling for shows. I usually prefer to drive if it's reasonable, but I like long road trips more than most. I sure hope it's a great weekend of shows. I'm probably choosing this over a Hagar/ Anthony/ Satriani Van Halen tribute tour stop at Red Rocks in October. Don't think I can do both.

DonS 3,067 Posted January 19 Bought a ticket for Between The Buried And Me when they peform their Colors II album in entirely. Havent listened to a bunch of BTBAM but my daughter's BF suggested I check out their “Anatomy Of" album. Turns out it's a covers album where they do decent covers of bands like Queen, Pink Floyd, Soundgarden, and most surprisingly Motley Crue. Now I need to plan something special for my wife's bday since I'm going to this show on her actual birthday. It's a Tuesday but she made it clear I'd better step up.

jerryskids 5,206 Posted January 20 I mentioned in passing here that my wife and I saw Marc Cohn this past Tuesday. 30+ years ago we danced to True Companion as our first song. Still love the lyrics. But on a more rocking note, I'm going with my son and his GF to see Tool on 2/10. My son's GF is kinda shy and it's been a little bit of a challenge getting to know her. When Tool announced this extra date, I asked my son if he wanted to go with me. His response was something like, "yeah sure, I like Tool, but GF really likes them." Bought 3 tickets then as Christmas gifts. An added twist is that 2/10 is Saturday, the day before the SB. Or as it is known in Phoenix, the day 100K+ people get blotto at the WM Phoenix Open. So it might be a particularly fun crowd. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GobbleDog 816 Posted January 29 Wife just went to a STYX / REO Speedwagon concert in Orlando after getting free tickets (obviously). Apparently STYX now plays without the original lead singer. She said they sucked, and much preferred REO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DonS 3,067 Posted February 1 On my way to see Satriani/Vai/Johnson. Haven't listened to much Vai at all. He's amazingly skilled but the few songs of his I've heard sound a bit masturbatory vs musical. Hoping to be pleasantly surprised. Satriani on the other hand is able to showcase his remarkable skill without forsaking melody. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DonS 3,067 Posted February 8 Flying down to see HAKEN in LA this weekend. Earlier this week I bought a ticket to see a band called Wheel. Finnish band which has some TOOL-like vibes. Show is at a tiny venue in May so should be fun. Tickets were only $15. Fun to see at checkout that the "service fee" for purchasing online was almost 50% of the ticket price ($7.48)! Fockers. @jerryskids - I believe they are playing in PHX area so you might want to check them out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
