I don`t go to this kind of stuff. I`m too young.

Well when I was a little younger I would go to any thing that had bands that I enjoyed to watch, When I was in germany in 96,97 I went to MTV rock in the park there was 60,000 people there it was wild. Kiss, aerosmith, and I think supertramp headlined. But it does not matter I have been to a 100 small shows as well. As long as the music is good I would go.

Not too often, but some times. I've been to the fairly local festivals Quart (to see Deftones), Norwegian Wood (to see Tool, who canceled their tour a week or so before getting there >< ), and the very local festival Slottsfjellfestivalen. Was at RoadRage Roadrunner tour thingy last year, a Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks concert, and a King Crimson concert. Been a couple'a Motorpsycho concerts, a Foo Fighters concert, and some with local bands. Think that'd be about it.

Wow Gnarf! King Crimson must've been cool! [img]smile.gif[/img]
Motorpsycho too of course, but I've seen them myself.

Anyway, I went to my first concert at 14 (Slayer and Machine Head) and after that spent a couple of years going out (usually to concerts) on an almost weekly basis. Seen tons of bands, both local and better known ones, most of them metalbands. And I was at festivals like Dynamo Open Air, Waldrock and Wacken regularly.
Nowadays I go to concerts far less, last one I went to was a few weeks ago: The Mission. And I wasn't even planning on going (even though they were great the other time that I saw them) but then my sister served the band members in the restaurant she works in, mentioned I loved their music and got us put on the guestlist.

I used to go to all kinds of concerts when I worked in the record store (the record labels used to send us tickets for promoting the bands). But since I don't work there anymore, I've gotten out of the habbit of going to any shows. I used to go to one or two a month. Sometimes, if it was out of town, they'd hook us up with a hotel room and backstage passes, but I don't think they do cool stuff like that anymore. :(

King Crimson was great [img]smile.gif[/img] Motorpsycho usually do a concert with no age limit each fall here (two concerts over two days, one having age limit), so, when I were tinier, they sorta were the one good band I got to see [img]smile.gif[/img] (oh, and, speaking of Motorpsycho, I was at a The International Tussler Society concert last year as well :D ).

I've only been to a few but I wish I could go to alot more last show I saw was Opeth Devildriver and moonspell.

Last show I went to was Symphony X in October, now in May I am going to see Stratovarius. trouble here in France is that I don't know what the good local bands are, so I only go to see the better known bands.

Only one way to find out bro... [img]smile.gif[/img]
