    It doesnt matter where :)

    The last one I saw was THE GRATEFUL DEAD live on new years eve (12/31/85) on VHS! (Found it @ salvation army a month or so ago)

    www.dead.net/show/december-31-1985

    LISTEN TO EVERY SONG FROM THIS CONCERT HERE (23 songs)

    It was recorded from USA network on analogue cable and was fabulous!!!!!

    NO COMMERCIALS (Once the concert started) and it was FULL SCREEN.

    I think USA network is TOO GREEDY to show anything of that length now W/O SPAM or CRAP on the screen!!

    The tape ran out but I think I saw most of it (Over 2 hours worth which was fabulous)

    I TELL YA..... GRATEFUL DEAD WAS AWESOME IN THE 80s!!!!!!!

    Technically the last concert I went to was Cher and Cyndi Lauper but I only went because my sister asked me to.

    The last show I went to on my own was Dropkick Murphys. Lucero and Skinny Lister played with them. As you can see my taste varies drastically from my sisters.

    Last music event I went to was Imagine which was a rave.

    Last concert I went to with live instruments was Black Sabbath several months ago.

    The first half hour of a Lotus show at Gathering of the Vibes at Seaside Park in Bridgeport, which was after two hours of John Fogerty (one of my most amazing concert experiences ever - actually, just Vibes in general). I'm about to go see Rich Robinson at the Stage One in CT, though - I'm super excited, that venue is real small, so it's a personal experience

    the last concert i bought tickets for was Iration back in February of this year


    i'm about to go to a music festival next weekend with tons of live music for three days

    Amon Amarth, Satyricon, Rob Zombie @ Soundwave Brisbane in Feb.
    insane Clown Posse last December.

    I've got a mortgage now so had to really pull back on the gigs this year.

    the last one was Dark Star Orchestra at the Newport Music Hall in Feb. 2013

    I had a tic for Ratdog in Cleveland on Sept. 10th but the tour was cancelled so I got a refund.

    I could really use a show, it's been a minute !

    I know I'm a little out of the media loop but I ain't heard of half the shit you guys are seeing. Are these all small time independent bands/groups? Friends in bands?

    Lemon Cloud. Local quartet that plays weird gigs. Friends.
    Before that, Pierce Pettis, Dan Navarro, Darryl Purpose, Ellis Paul w/Radislav Lorcovic, Furthur, Mark Karan, New Monsoon.

    But I'm overdue for a show.

    I just realized that it has been a really long time since I've gone to a big concert. The last one was the Clapton Crossroads concert at Madison Square Garden in April 2013. The truth is that big concerts don't really appeal to me much anymore. The security, the traffic, parking, the War on Drugs, rude, noisy, puking fans, and the cost all turn me off. I'd rather smoke some good weed and stay home and watch a DVD concert on my home theatre, or catch great local musicians at my favorite tavern.

    Go see live music. Those musicians at the tavern need you.

    Anathema and HIM at the Fillmore back in March. It was worth going to but not as ass-kicking as Metallica or Megadeth.

    It was either Dave Mason or Eric Burdon about a year ago. I forget which, both excellent.

    The last actual concert I went to was X in December 2004 . . . almost 10 years ago. That's sad. :-(

    Took my 11 year old grand daughter to see Rob Zombie a couple of weeks ago. Outdoors in a nice venue.
