yeah, i noticed we didnt have a concert topic yet. So this topic is for everyone to tell us who they've seen Live and who they are going to see. This can be either a concert or a festival.

ive been to Rock Werchter last year (and wil go again this year) www.rockwerchter.be
That made i saw bands like:
Rammstein
NIN
QOTSA
Foo Fighters
Audioslave (With Killing in the name of live )
REM
Bloc Party
The Dears
Just to name a few

And in Juli ill see bands like
Tool
The Who
Placebo
Franz Ferdinand
Kaiser Chiefs
Muse
Red Hot Chilli Peppers
Artic Monkeys
HARD-Fi
Depeche Mode
Robert Plant

So what did you see, and most importantly how did they sound live
Just to review a few: Rammstein's Live show is something you must've seen once in your life. All the show is really spectacular
Audioslave is extremely fun, esspeciall if they also play RATM stuff
NIN is just godlike Live, everything sounds right
Bloc party is probably one of the best live acts, they play with a great ambiance
Foo Fighters are great, esspecially thanks to Dave Grohl

Im really curious how Tool will be live, and offcource the Who, my favorite classical band.

I've actually never been to one. I've seen some of College's bands perform at local gigs but that doesn't count.


I missed Evanescence in Toronto by ONE DAY when I went there the other year. That fucked me off.

[Athena]

Quite understandable.

I've only been to Johan Gielen and Slagerij van Kampen (at the 'liberation' of Eindhoven celebration 1.5 years ago), but those weren't really real concerts I think. I enjoyed it anyway.

[Jeeves]

Thinking about it, I've only actually ever been to clasical gigs...
Melbourne Sympahony Orcestra FTW!

[Mastermind]

Weezer and Foo Fighter combination concert in MA this past October. Weezer roxs my socks!

[Speeder]

Haven't been on anything never (negative power!!) but obviously gonna be on the next Rammstein concert in Poland promoting Rosenrot and the album which should come in the end of next year.

[Beowulf]

Only concert I've been to was Weird Al several years ago. It was a kickass concert though.

I wanted to see the Blue Oyster Cult but they were in my area last weekend, while I was away. That's my luck though. Nothing seems to go my way.

[Carnivean]

Rammstein
Cradle of Filth
Death From Above 1979
Trivium

Probably others I can't think of.

(probably) Going to the Download Festival so... lots others may be added or money if it sells out.

[Hrod89]

Seen:

Megadeth
Dream Theater
Some other bands I can't remember the name of.

Going to see:

Rush (assuming they don't retire first)
Metallica
Symphony X (if they tour near me)
Yngwie Malmsteen (next week!!!)
Dream Theater (again)
Slayer
Childeren of Bodom
Opeth

[AdmiralGT]

I've seen

Evanescence x2 (Cardiff Internation Arena and NEC Birmingham)
3 Doors Down (Shepherd's Bush Empire)

Evanescence are completely different live to their album, better? I'm not sure, Bring Me to Life isn't as good without the Guest Vocals, but the slower songs are much better.
The Shepherd's Bush Empire is the most bizarre venue ever, it's literally an old theatre used for concerts. It's really small but also a great venue, the atmosphere is intimate, yet large enough for a good crowd.

[Hrod89]

Opeth filmed thier live DVD there, if I'm not mistaken.

Also check out fabchannel.com
The site shows recordings of Paradiso and Melkweg in the Netherlands, which are small concert halls, so some smaller acts perform there, some local, but also quite some international artists that are worth to look at (personal recommandation is Bloc Party)

[Shine On]

Well i've been to see:

Alice Cooper
Australian Pink Floyd (The best tribute band for Pink Floyd)
Thunder

And at some point im hopeing to go and see:

Evanescence
and basically anyone else

[Speeder]

Oh yeah, I am also planning to see Evanescence Of course if they are coming to Poland in the nearest time which I presume not to happen Shame, because I would love to see them live, if not more than Rammstein.

[Daeda]

Well poland doesnt really have festivals does it? Germny is probably the clostest they come to you..

[Speeder]
