I saw Ozomatli .... The Mission beach concert was free and I was 20 feet away...Great band!

That's a band I would have liked to have seen. I have their first CD and it's really good.

I've been to very few "name" concerts. See lots of local acts and the Canadian bands on the bar circuit.

David Bowie - "Sound & Vision" - that was, what, '89 or '90

Harry Connick Jr. - the When Harry Met Sally Tour - '90 or '91

I see Cheap Trick whenever they pass through town. They usually play large clubs now.

I went to a Slayer concert in October 2003 and saw Phil Collins at the Staples Center last year. Two way different music genres in comparsion aren't they? :)

Jazzmatazz- '95
Aerosmith- 1997
Chumbawamba- 1998
Brian Setzer Orchestra- 2002

I also had tickets to see Van Halen in '99 but the show got canceled due to an injury to Alex Van Halen. Although I was pissed about it at the time, i am actually relieved now since Gary Cherone was the lead singer at the time.. Now I'll be able to see them with Sammy Hagar next time they come through Colorado.

I saw 'Queensryce' and 'Judas Priest' last night. It was fun...both bands were on top of their game. The underbelly of midwest society was there to enjoy it with me.... :)

I have plans to see 'Earth, Wind and Fire' in September :) and ...

The Rolling [censored] Stones in November!! :) :) :)


And maybe 'Barry Manilow' in Vegas this summer! :)

I saw Fleetwood Mac a couple of years ago. They put on a great live show!

I've been dragged to a few others (Tim McGraw and Toby Keith), but I'd rather not talk about those. :)

Absolutely, Buckingham is also great! :) I especially like his song "Go Insane".

What did you think of their album "Say You Will"?

View Post


I like "Go Insane" as well. Have you heard the acoustic version? I would say that it's better than the album version, which is also good.

I thought "Say You Will" was pretty good, but it felt more like two albums put together than 1 full album. The first half ("What's The World Coming To" through "Come") sounded very much like Tusk and the second half of the album was very much like Rumours and Mirage. Great album, though. I think my favorites were "Come", "Peacekeeper", and "Say You Will"

I think that's the one I heard. Whichever one it is on their album, "The Very Best Of Fleetwood Mac".

Great album, though. I think my favorites were "Come", "Peacekeeper", and "Say You Will"

"Peacekeeper" is an excellent song. I like the 'solider' theme behind the lyrics and all... it was a time I was into a lot of video games like Battlefield: 1942! :) Same with the song "Come".
"Steal Your Heart Away" reminds me of an adorable dog for some odd reason. I'm very strange sometimes. :)

I also liked "Steal Your Heart Away". I think that all of Buckingham's songs on the album are fairly strong. There's a lot of really good guitar playing going on in that album.

Also, supposedly, he's got a solo album coming out at the end of the year and that should soon be followed by another Fleetwood Mac album (they're revamping their homepage, which can only mean that they've got something going on)

Update:

I have been to three shows this year:

The Rolling Stones in January, second time in 4 months...I'm seeing them again next wednesday. :P

Earth Wind n Fire: had 6th row seats! :P

and last friday I saw Roger Waters, of Pink Floyd. He played Dark Side of the Moon in it's entirety, in order...it was fantastic. He also played classic songs from The Wall too. :)

Wow, that would have been cool.

I think the most mind-blowing concert I have seen was the Prodigy live in Leeds in 1997. It was just an awesome experience, full of energy and madness and lots of jumping in the crowd!!!

Other concerts:-

Oasis - November 2005, Sydney, and they were really good

Moody Blues, in 2005

Blur - 3 times

Pulp

Divine Comedy

Dodgy

Beck

Ash

The Bluetones

The Darkness - on Top of the Pops

Chris Isaak - at Telstra Stadium, 2004, before the Rugby League Final.
