happy123 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 I was just watching a U2 DVD and i was sweet. Have you been to any live Concerts? What did you think of it? My Gallery :: Deviant Art ->Gallery :: Favourites :: ::My blog :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johannas Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Yeh i go to see gigs all the time, no one as massive as U2 but some pretty big bands. Atmosphere is amazing, one of my favourite things to do. Thank you to tripsis for an awesome sig! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zierro Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 I went to a Slayer show and it was great. My neck has never been more sore in my life than it was that week after the concert. :mrgreen: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggzs Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 funny, last Live event I watched in full was Linkin Park Live in Texas (2003) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickeley102 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 I go to heaps and heaps, it is one of my favourite things to do. For a while i got bored of listening to music, something was missing from my music experience. Then i started going to gigs and it added a whole new dimension to my music repetoire, it was like i was born again music fan. I have seen muse twice, the foos, tool, the killers, the fratellis, the white stripes, beastie boys and hundreds of others. a concert is what you make it though, it is easy to just sit in the stands and not enjoy it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warri0r45 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 I'm not the most avid gigger in the world but I've been to a few. The atmosphere depends on the band. What I mean is that I didn't go and mosh when I went to see Neil Diamond and I didn't sit in a chair when I went to see Lamb of God or Parkway Drive, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginger_Warrior Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 I love going to live performances. You just don't get the same buzz listening to a single or a live DVD of the concert. I've been to see Franz Ferdinand, Lostprophets and Kaiser Chiefs. All of them were pretty spectacular, being caught up in the crowd and everything, but I think Lostprophets was the one I enjoyed most. Wasn't the best gig, but it was all-standing, and it's better when everyone's standing. :P | Favourite Game Music | Last.fm | HYT Friend Chat Rules | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgehog Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 I haven't ever been to a major live concert, but it would be awesome to see U2 or someone live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oegly41 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 I've never been to a concert, but I am going to see Queen in a little while. Filesharer.org - Upload your mugshot to support The Pirate Bay! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hohto Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 In last 5 years I've watched 20-50 gigs+one festival/year, least when I was in the army. I'd rather die for what I believe in than live for anything else.Name Removed by Administrator ~Turtlefemm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxxShade Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 I went to a ton of concerts this summer. The top were The Police, Birthday Bash, and Projekt Revolution (Atreyu was a lot better than I thought they'd be). I think that you get into the music more at a concert than you would listening to the radio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intriguing Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Should probably go here. I'm a bit weird. I absolutely love music--my life revolves around it--but I really don't like live concerts. I guess I don't enjoy it when music is played obnoxiously loud, as it is at all concerts. Also not a huge fan of the whole "going crazy in the mosh-pit" thing. If I ever do go to concerts, I'm always standing a little bit behind the mosh-pit just listening. Cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragoonson Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 I've not been to a good band's concert,ever.But I've played you know,for the bar...Its personally a good experience.I broke my neck headbanging at the drums heh.The doctor was laughing at me,seriously. so i herd u liek devarts?If you look at me and feel offended by my 666-ism,think.I could be just as offended by your "cross".[hide=This's why I'm hot]The Eleventh Commandment:Thou Shalst only say "Amen,brother".Amen, brother :lol:Amen, brudda (referring to the 10th commandment)amen Bruder!

I mean sure, crank it up like crazy, but no so much that it's almost indistinguishable noise and in an eclosed club. It's not always that bad, though.

Tribal Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 I love concerts. I've seen Rob Zombie, Metallica, Iron Maiden, Slayer, Shinedown, Tool, Mudvayne, Dragonforce, Disturbed, System of a Down, Marilyn Manson and Godsmack. I'm going to a show today actually, it's an all day 'festival' the Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Tour, mainly going to see Dragonforce, Disturbed and Slipknot.

Diesel Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Saw the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Trans-Siberian. Both were pretty sweet. I have tickets for the Black Keys in early October. Last.Fm My Bloggy Proud to have served on Tip.it Crew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jernlov Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 I've seen Motorhead and Dragonforce in the past. I hope to see Opeth sometime soon; I've heard that they're great live. Steam | Soup | Last.fm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feedmetotheforest Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 The Mars Volta is playing a show here in September : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Range_This11 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 The Mars Volta is playing a show here in September : I saw them when they played St. Paul. It was absolutely awesome, they played for 3 and a half hours straight. No warm up band either. But bands I have seen live: Rage Against the Machine at Alpine Valley Ampitheatre. 45,000 people crammed into an outdoor ampitheatre to see Rage play their 3rd concert in 8 years. Truly the most magical event I have experienced in my life. And I'm going to see them again (see signature) Queens of the Stone Age Slipknot Disturbed The Mars Volta Dragonforce Mastodon Machine Head Black Tide Airbourne Five Finger Death Punch The Blood Brothers The following I saw when I was in middle school with my mom, she really liked these bands: Goo Goo Dolls Maroon 5-when they were on tour with Matchbox 20 BEFORE anyone had heard of them. Matchbox 20 Old 97s Five For Fighting "He could climb to it, if he climbed alone, and once there he could suck on the pap of life, gulp down the incomparable milk of wonder."

Lenticular_J Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 I try to, but it's hard, since I don't have a job and can't drive. Me and my scooter gang (Wolverines for LIFE) only travel in packs, so we have to coordinate well. I've been to a Trans-Siberian Orchestra concert, and it was fantastic. Amazing pyrotechnics and LAZERZ. catch it now so you can like it before it went so mainstream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaphias Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Was going to get tickets to see Elton John when he preformed in Anchorage (Alaska), but both shows sold out within 45 minutes. :cry: Oh well, I'll get around to seeing him sometime. 8,325th to 99 Firemaking 3/9/08 | 44,811th to 99 Cooking 7/16/084,968th to 99 Farming 10/9/09 | Runescaper August 2005-March 2010Tip.it Mod Feb. 2008-Sep. 2008 | Tip.it Crew Sep. 2008-Nov. 2009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powman3 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 If TOC hits San Diego next year or Atreyu goes to the musical festival that's held in my area every year I'm definitely getting tickets to those shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalphite Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 I hope to see Opeth sometime soon; I've heard that they're great live. Oh god yes. When I went to prog Nation, 3 and Opeth were so freaking incredible live that it made up for missing half of between the buried and me's set (was getting my 3 cd signed :D) and the utter boringness that was Dream theater. Aside from Prog Nation, I've seen Foo Fighters w/Serj tankian and Against Me! Opening (the foo fighters put on the best show of my life, Dave Grohl is hilarious! Serj wasn't too bad either), three days grace/breaking Benjamin co-headlining (they actually put on good shows, though I don't care for their music much any more), Thousand Foot Krutch with some other crappy bands, and...Nickelback >.> (I was in 5th grade...) I'm going to see Nightwish w/ Sonata Arctica in september, I can't wait! I might also be seeing Rise Against w/ Alkaline Trio, thrice, and The Gaslight Anthem in November, but that's still a long way away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
