Was King of the Board for a Day
What concerts have you been a party to?
I didn't start really going to concerts until I was 19, but since then I've seen many groups I've enjoyed and still have a great long list of ones I'd like to see.
George Carlin - January/February of '05 I think. I remember thinking that I might not even get to see him because he checked into rehab shortly before the concert date, but got out after a few weeks. I remember being the youngest person there (14) and not even being allowed in at first until my dad proved to them that he'd bought the tickets himself and gave me permission to see it. Great fucking show and I'm happy that I got to see him in person before he died.
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Seen in '06 and just this past year, once with John Frusciante and the other with Josh Klinghoffer. Both excellent shows with a great amount of energy and presence.
Alice In Chains - The first concert I went to after George Carlin, September of '09. Seen at the 9:30 Club, a small venue being a great setting for their first album tour since 1996. Great show, ended seeing them 1 year later at the DC101 Chili Cookoff.
Dickey Betts & Great Southern - Traveled out to Virginia for this in December of '09, seen at a small bar outside of Culpeper I believe. Great show and great fun listening to so many classic Allman Bros. tunes.
Allman Bros. - Seen twice, once in December '10 and again this year in July. Both times with Derek Trucks and Warren Haynes, both times amazing.
Warren Haynes - Seen November '11. Fantastic show.
Soundgarden - Patriot Center June '11 and tickets for their show in January, looking forward to another fun show.
Robert Plant - January '11. Legendary is all I can say.
Stone Temple Pilots - Chili Cookoff '10 headliner, great to see them back.
Pearl Jam - May '10. Amazing show, and loved how they interacted with the audience, it really gave it a more intimate feel than I'd have thought they would've done.
Santana - Duo with Allman Bros. this year. First time seeing him, loved it, hope he comes back.
Sublime with Rome - July '11. Missed most of the show, honestly just okay.
Some I've seen but don't remember the dates of are Pieces of a Dream, Cephas & Wiggins, Jon Mueller, Black Uhuru and Yellowman, but I know I'm even forgetting some more.
