I LOVE going to concerts. My first concert was for my 11th birthday I think. My mom got me tickets and my mom, my stepdad, my sister, and went. I opening band was Simple Plan when they were first starting off. I forgot the second band, but I didn't like them. The third band was Green Day (when they were good) and the final band was Blink 182 (when they were good). I enjoyed it a lot, and I got a Blink 182 t-shirt.

My second concert consisted of a local band (Makeshift Romeo), 30 Seconds to Mars, Taproot, Story of the Year, and Staind. It was an alright concert, I liked it because it was my first one in for a while.

My third concert consisted of Trapt, Mudvayne, Shinedown, Non Point, and I forgot the other band. Shinedown and Trapt were amazing, but I wasn't too big into Mudvayne.

My fourth (and probably favorite) concert consisted of Non Point, Flyleaf (yeah, shit start,) THREE DAYS GRACE, STONE SOUR, AND DISTURBED. I was a huge Disturbed fan (as I still am) and it got me into Three Days Grace and Stone Sour. I bought myself a Disturbed shirt and I ended up puking that night. (Note to self: Do NOT eat before going to a concert.)

My fifth concert, which was at the beginning of December 07, was Another Animal, Coheed and Cambria, Alterbridge, Hell Yeah, Papa Roach, and Three Days Grace. I enjoyed this concert a lot, although I didn't like Coheed and Cambria at the time. This probably ties for my second favorite concert.

A side note to the OP: Threads like this often get locked because they are considered poll threads. They don't include much discussion (which I tried to include) and they just give you a pointless reason to post.

The Strokes
Incubus
Franz Ferdinand
The Fratellis (two or three times, can't remember)

EDIT: also Radiohead. How the fucking fuck did I forget Radiohead? It was on my birthday too. Fuckin' duh.

...eh, tons more. The next band I'm going to see is The Breeders and I've never been so stoked about any gig in my life.

I haven't been to that many concerts, but meh.

I've seen the Allman Brothers Band probably 4 times, they play yearly at my town's performing arts center. Two of the times they were lead acts, another one they were openers for Tom Petty & the </3, though we didn't stay to watch them. It was probably 11 by the time they got on stage anyway. >.>

I've seen Breaking Benjamin as well, and that was just awesome, despite how trashy the club they played at was. They were opened by probably 4 bands that all sucked and played for a fucking hour each, though thankfully they played for a good 2 hours. Great show.

My most recent concert was Nickelback, opened by Daughtry and Staind. Daughtry I arrived too late to hear aside from the singer singing out of key (I was walking to the performing arts center, same one that ABB played at, and I could hear the singer sucking on the way there.) Staind was okay, but they never played It's Been Awhile, which imo is their best song.

Nickelback sucked the big one though. They focused more on being douchebags than playing the music. The amps were too quiet, they played the freaking music video for half their songs, you couldn't hear anything outside the amphitheater (in the lawns, etc.) they decided to play Cowboys from Hell in a different key while Daughtry shot T-shirt cannons, and it was just a load of corny dumb shit that I had no interest in seeing. I left half an hour through.

At least I managed to see my friend there, who I didn't expect.

I've been to more concerts than I could ever hope to recall, but most notably...:

Smashing Pumpkins
Oasis
Deftones
Green Day
TOOL
Radiohead
Dave Matthews Band
Incubus
Metallica
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Justin King
Blue Oyster Cult
Foreigner
Reel Big Fish

... and a whole lot more. Some big acts, some nothing acts. Hands down, though, Radiohead puts on the best show I've ever seen in my entire life. I've seen them three times now, and they are easily the three best concerts I have ever been lucky enough to witness. Even if you don't like Radiohead, if you have a chance to see them live, do it. It is WELL worth it.

Alright, let's review.

1) You're using numbers in place of words.
2) You're spelling at the second grade level.
3) You're posting in CAPS.
4) This post is in the wrong place, and should have been in Software.

Conclusion: Custom songs are not your "cup of tea", and I'd suggest undertaking a much more simpler hobby. Perhaps tree watching.

My first concert was in November, when I went to see The Police in their 07/08 world tour. Amazing show, they haven't seemed to have lost a step.
