Who have you seen live?

[JAKE-26]

Just another one of those pointless threads about who you guys have seen live.
Can be bands or comedians etc. And how was the show in your opinions?

I've only seen

-Birds of Tokyo (broken strings tour) which for an unplugged tour i thought it was great!

-Carl Barron-walking down the street tour which like every Carl Barron I've ever seen I laughed my ass off. Very keen to see him again in April.

Rodney Rude in Bathurst many moons ago. Who could forget the line "I've just been circumsized, anyone want a fanbelt?"

Kevin Bloody Wilson down in Albury (2002 i think it was).

Both very funny lads.

Oh no don't get me wrong, I couldn't agree more, Chinese Democracy tour was awesome. And as long as Axl's up front, it's GN'R. Long story short, I got screwed over by a radio station in Perth with a comp to win a trip to the Eastern Creek show in '93, they later admitted their f***up and sent me the entire CD catalogue (which I already had)

[Mirkz]

Elvis to the Max - when I was a kid. Wouldn't pay to see it myself.
Grease - Also when I was a kid.

If we're counting Big Day Out
Lily Allen - absolutely shithouse, sounded like she was off her trolley.
Mars Volta - Great guitar work, but god do they go on and on and on and on and on...
I think Hill Top Hoods were there, not my particular taste in music, but they went alright.
Grinspoon, Think they were at the last BDO in Perth too.
Eskimo Joe - They were great

Muse - Fantastic, saw them at BDO also.
30 Seconds to mars - Put on an awesome show, really got ALL of the crowd into it.
Metallica - Epic.
Armin Van Buuren - The guy is awesome, knows exactly when and how to drop a beat.

Would've gone to see Linkin Park late last year but I thought their latest album was trash compared to the other stuff, and didn't want to put myself having to listen to it at a concert.

Small list for me really..

[JRNZER]

Foo Fighters,Metallica,Megadeth,Soulfly,behemoth,coupl e of BDO's.Hoping to go see Motorhead when they play here in a couple of months.

[Lumps of cheese]

Guns n' roses - calder park '93 i think it was on the use your illusion tour. Still the best concert i've been to by far.
Cold chisel - Bathurst weekend in bathurst. Up there for the race and someone hands us a flyer in the street saying they're playing the local footy ground. Was awesome.
Madonna - girlie show tour. Have to say, she was actually pretty good. Lots of boobies too.
Pearl jam - They were excellent.
Red hot chili peppers - Was a great concert. Papa roach opened too which was a bonus. Pity it was at jihad stadium, stupid acoustics.
Elton john - Yep, the old queen was alright.
Robbie williams - Has alot of energy and gets the crowd going, didn't mind his show at all.
