Tho i do regret not seeing Metallica's Hardwired tour. Darkman said it was a fantastic show. It was playing right across the street from my job.

Then one was a performance of Handel's Messiah, which was p legit. The other two were both Tommy Emmanuel, which I liked well enough but wouldn't go out of my way for a third. I've considered a few more but ticket prices were lol. $200 for the back row at Steely Dan. --- 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 <cite>DevsBro posted [p:939337330] in Who else h...

I use to travel around with my friend's band. It was awesome. I got into shows for free and all I had to do was man the merch table for like 30 mins while they played.

Hexenherz 05/18/20 11:17:55 AM #12:	Never been to a festival but I like to go to a few concerts a year. I'm not even really extroverted, I just love seeing my favorite musicians on stage. The whole energy is great. I'm a little nervous, this year so far the only concert I had planned was Rammstein in August but with things going the way they are it will probably get canceled. Don't know if they'll schedule one for next year. Kinda bummed since I don't know if I'll ever get to see them live. --- FFXIV: Lucius Hexenseele (Brynhildr) \| RS3: UltimaSuende . 99 WC/Fish/Cook/Fletch/Div/Mining/Smithing/Thieving/Crafting https://letterboxd.com/BMovieBro/ <cite>Hexenherz posted [p:939338775] in Who else h...

Social Distortion played one of their earliest albums because it was something like the 25th anniversary of that album. And Third Eye Blind plays a lot of classic stuff - I actually felt bad when I saw them in concert because everyone was having fun, singing along and jumping around to their old stuff.

EnragedSlith 05/18/20 12:09:39 PM #37:	Decent number of shows fairly regularly (pre-pandemic) but no festivals. My girlfriend is super into the jam band scene and all those events like Lockn and Hulaween and shit, but I dont have the patience or same level of passion. Also, I was working weekends for close to three years and have animals, so I couldnt afford to indulge in a vacation. --- ultimate milf hunter https://imgur.com/lCEdce6 https://imgur.com/2N1Ezia https://imgur.com/ukJ6sPJ https://youtu.be/IDYaHvDiTr4 <cite>EnragedSlith posted [p:939340807] in Who else h...

The_Korey 05/18/20 12:59:09 PM #50:	shockthemonkey posted... But you enjoy movies, not acting, so of course you want to see movies and not just people acting. Still seems weird that you dont like movie theaters but the comparison isnt there at all. Where the komparison fails for theaters is a) I know exactly what media I'm getting, and b) a big theater screen, picture quality, and sound system are better than anything I have at home. Loving music does not mean I love all music indiscriminately, even within a single genre or band, so fests/koncerts fail at point A. And again, with live performances, instruments and effects get left out, lone singers harmonizing with themselves becomes impossible, people tend to get tired and/or tongue-tied with fast lyrics/raps, ect... there's a lot in play that make live music inferior to what ever I have on home devices, so it's the opposite of point B. And lastly, I don't usually do nothing while listening to music. I listen to music when I'm traveling (be it leisurely stroll, riding, or bus), while I'm at work (really helps get through the day. In some kases, gets my adrenaline up to move faster. Just gotta stop myself from singing when I'm in a office), messing around online, and while I'm gaming, if for whatever reason the game's sounds and music ain't doing it for me. At a show, I'm just there watching people sing, play instruments, and maybe dance while I do nothing. Essentially, it is a large package deal, when I'm only interested in one or two products/services/aspects. --- https://imgur.com/PpxZDof \| https://imgur.com/xMGLcGE https://imgur.com/nsBw6Sy \| https://imgtc.com/i/sBYBaew.png <cite>The_Korey posted [p:939343046] in Who else h...
