I have only seen Judas Priest and Iron Maiden (X2) in concert. Priest is doing their final world tour in the next few years and if I miss it i'll die.
Well I have been fortunate in the fact that I was "smoking age" in the mid to late 80's to now which gave me plenty of the classic concerts I got to see. And Diamonds you reminded that I did go see Priest when I was in my teen years. Now thinking about it I also went to Scorpions a long time ago too. Now I am at the point where any concerts I go to will be repeats or first time "dream" shows when the bands are almost ready to pack it up for good.
Angels & Airwaves (2010) Say Anything twice (2010) Motion City Soundtrack + Saves the Day opening for SA 30 Seconds to Mars (2010) Muse (2010) Metric (opened for Muse)
I've been to many but the only ones that were really memorable were Avenged Sevenfold, Killswitch Engage, Death Cab for Cutie, and Enter Shikari. I really want to see RHCP, Incubus, Keane, and Passion Pit.
UPDATE: Green Day Linkin Park Eminem Snoop Dogg Lupe Fiasco (2x) Lone Star (when I was 12, with my Dad haha) Mos Def
Muse in Chicago was righteous. Arctic Monkeys twice, Sleepy Sun three times. Lollapalooza in 2009: STS9, Decemberists, Andrew Bird, TV on the Radio, The Killers, Bassnectar (seen him a few times otherwise), Deadmau5, Boys Noize, lots of good artists at Lolla. Oh, caught Excision up in STL last spring.
Tonight I'll be checking out a band called Ill Nino for the 5th time. They always put on a bad ass show. Check out the break down at 2:17. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DeSI3jZGDVM"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DeSI3jZGDVM[/ame]
