Those were probably sweet. I'm a big fan of the Boss.

Sort of related, if you like Springsteen you'll probably like The Gaslight Anthem.

Never been a huge fan of kiss, but I have yet to hear one bad thing about their concerts. Been told they put on a hell of a show.

I don't like a ton of their stuff, but the concert was awesome. Crazy high energy, lots of pyro, and all the cool old stunts they do (spitting fire and blood, etc)

Def Leppard. There was one I forgot too, thanks Mcburg. Maybe I was trying to forget it since I went to it with my ex wife, years after we divorced.

Arcade Fire was the best set I've ever seen. Mumford & Sons after them. To those guys, nobody compares.

I'd love to see Mumford and Sons.

How could I forget my first concert, Yes on their 90125 tour. I still have the t-shirt from 1983/84.

I'm excited to see the Chili Peppers again this summer. Their last one I went to years ago was the best live show I've seen.

I though Zac Brown Bad killed. As well as Linkin Park, although I'm not a Linkin Park fan.

George Strait was pretty good. Keith Urban was good. Jason Aldean kinda sucked like, but it seemed like the sound was off.

OAR twice
Rascal Flatts twice
Goo Goo Dolls
Neil Young
AC/DC
Journey
Foreigner
Switchfoot

A ton of Christian artists that I'm guessing most don't know like Third Day, Newsboys, tobymac, MercyMe, Casting Crowns, Jeremy Camp, DC Talk and many more.

And going to see Brad Paisley and The Band Perry Sunday.

You probably never curse on a bad Drive.

The only Christian bands I ever saw was when they performed at my church...when I used to attend.

Haha, ask justincredible, on the golf course is when I am at my worst cussing. Didn't cuss before I started golfing 6 years ago, now it has become regular vocabulary, though not near as much as when playing.
