Live Bands! Where have you been?

<< < (14/16) > >>

KharBevNor:
I've not been, overall, to very many GOOD gigs. I've been to a LOT of gigs where I basically just went to get pissed and mosh, or where I went for just one band on the billing (examples: Going to see Trivium just for 3 Inches of Blood, Pitchshifter and Minus just for SikTh, the awful Dillinger Escape Plan and Poison the Well just for the awesome Ephel Duath, and so forth).

By the overall list, I look like some retarded core kiddie. I'll star the ones I either went for or liked/thought were respectable:

3 Inches of Blood *
80's Match-Box B-Line Disaster
Alice Cooper*
Apocalyptica*
Ariel-X* (I loved them, but everyone else thinks they're awful. Either it's the fact I was stoned off my face, or I just have superior taste to everyone I know. I mean, none of my friends even liked the fucking Inbreds!)
Atreyu
Awkward Silence
The Black Maria
The Bled*
Breed 77
Brigade
Bullet For My Valentine
Caliban*
Chimaira
Cradle of Filth*
Day of the Fight
Degrassi
The Dillinger Escape Plan
DragonForce*
Ephel Duath*
Fallen
Four Man Riot*
Girlschool*
Hatebreed* (Retarded hardcore can be fun live. I don't actually play Hatebreed at home or even really know any of their songs. Same goes for Caliban and The Bled. Alcohol probably helped in all these occasions as well)
Hell Is For Heroes
Hentai Babies
Heterodox*
Hondo Maclean
I-(defi)*
In Flames x2 * (first time, they were shite the second time, I hate their new material.)
The Inbreds*
Infrasound*
Inspector Offensive
Kids Near Water
Lacuna Coil*
Mastodon*
Mendeed
Minus
Mista Mushroom
Motorhead*
My Chemical Romance* (It was my first gig too, no lie. It WAS before they got big though.)
Overlord*
Pennies Dropped
Pitchshifter
Poison the Well
Profane*
Queen Adreena*
Rammstein*
Roadsidehopescene
Screaming Phoenix*
Sentenced to Rebirth*
SikTh*
Slayer*
Slipknot
Stiff Little Fingers*
Still Remains
Sucioperro
Syrafex*
System of a Down* (no shame. SOAD are part of my childhood)
Terra Deforma
Trivium
Twisted Sister*
UK Subs*
Vallen Brosa
Vectis 23
We Will Be Pilots (actually the worst band in the universe)

chrysalidigm:
last night i saw malkmus. man can entertain. second only to mclusky in terms of banter.

nescience:
There were some really really good shows this year in the Bay Area, but no live event matched the bliss May at the SF Independent, when we were treated to Boredoms, Melt Banana, and Erasure performing all within the space of seven days.  I can die happy.

Other great shows:
-Junior Boys/Russian Futurists/Caribou @ Bottom of the Hill

-M83 @ Bimbo's 365

-Arcade Fire @ Great American Music Hall / Coachella / Warfield
Gotta say, was not an Arcade Fire fan at all, but their live shows have most definitely convinced me

-Phoenix @ Great American Music Hall

-Olivia Tremor Control @ Great American Music Hall

-The Fucking Champs @ Bottom of the Hill

-Mixel Pixel @ Bottom of the Hill

-Guitar Wolf @ Bottom of the Hill
Just a few weeks before Basswolf died, no less.

-Daedelus @ Hemlock

ExiledSmarmy:
