I'm sure this thread has been done before but I can't remember so I figured I would make a new one.

Which bands, groups, or artists have you seen in concert?

Most memorable concerts for me:

Jimmy Eat World/Tenacious D/Weezer
Cypress Hill/Green Day/Blink 182
Snoop/311
Counting Crows/Maroon 5
Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros/Ray Lamontagne/OAR/Dave Matthews Band

Bunch more that I've been to but off the top of my head those are the most memorable ones.

Rush a couple of times. Got Alex and Geddy's autograph.
Garth Brooks
Brooks and Dunn. Free VIP tickets at Riverbend.
George Strait 3 or 4 times. Love his concerts.
Hank Jr twice. Both were good shows. Got kicked out of the second concert. Someone too rowdy at a Bocephus concert?
Little Texas
REO Speedwagon
Styx
Kiss

That's about all I can remember right now. I'm not much of a concert goer.

i'm just going to list my top 3.

1. AC/DC, The Q a few years back
2. Tool, Columbus, 10,000 Days tour
3. Sensation White, Copenhagen (it was several DJs, but definitely one of the top music events I've ever been to)

A few of the most memorable.
Start off with Butthole Surfers at Bogart's in Cincinnati and Pantera in Phoenix, Arizona.

The few different Lollapalooza's and Ozzfest's attended are mostly a blur, but were a heck of a good time.

The Cure, Guns and Roses and Soundgarden at the Nutter Center were also fun.

I'm going to see Korn next month. This may be a dumb question but do the bands generally only play the songs from their newest albums or do some mix older songs in also?

You're right, dub question (lol just kidding bd).

Depends on age of band, band with longevitiy like Korn its going to be a mix. Newer bands will play their most recent work.

Just might have been or riding his bicycle. He was big on that in the 80's. He used to ride them to the concert location from the hotel.

Best concerts I've seen were Paul McCartney at Great American Ball Park and Tool (10,000 Days tour) at US Bank Arena. I've seen far too many to try and list them all.
