Out of all of those artist's/ bands I have only seen the Ramones (27 times, 8 countries) I saw the Pixies(breeders) they sucked. Bosstones before the major label disaster, Bad Religion more times than I care to remember.Saw the Cure several times. I've been to probally over a thousand shows in my lifetime, but its easy to do if all you listen to is punk rock. No way I could list a favorite show, dozens of good ones. Original Misfits, Black Flag, Dead Kennedys, JFA, Fear, X, Husker Du, Replacements, GBH, Exploited, Discharge...you get the idea. My friends band came over last year (The Queers) that was a good couple of shows.
I fell asleep at a Peter Murphy(Bahaus) show. Walked out of Siouxsie and the Banshees show. I think I fell asleep at a New Order show, at least I would hope I did. The only band I never got to see that I wanted to was the Smiths. Only time I was ever nervous at a show was Agnostic Front at a Hardcore Matinee at CBGB's. That was brutal. Nose broke at the Circle Jerks in the pit. Busted knee at 7 Seconds. Backstage with the Ramones a few times. Weed with Suicidal Tendencies. Watching Wattie from the Exploited trying to skateboard. Skating a pool with JFA and the boys. Messing with a drunk El Duce. OH surviving a GG Allin show. HA.

Worst shows ever--NOFX everytime. GG Allin (sorry Merle), Social Distortion, TSOL. And all time biggest loser....the new Misfits.

I might add I saw the re-formed Dead Kennedys back in 03 or so. They had Brandon Cruz singing instead of Jello. It ws awful. I never really like Brandon anyways.

I have been to a few but, the all time stupidest moment of my life came after a Tragically Hip concert in Vancouver. Waiting for the Skytrain outside GM place I lost my balance (was completly drunk) and fell on to the tracks...Should have died. This was preceded by jumping over a fence, that collapsed, sending me crashing on my head.

I've seen

Radiohead a bunch of times
Motley Crue
Kiss
Modest Mouse
Metallica
Some country stuff (actually a lot now that I think about it)
Almost saw Alan Jackson but, I passed out in someone else's tent just before the show.

When I woke up I swore he was still on stage but, it was at Merritt Mountain music fest and 95% of all music players were playing his stuff that night. Boy was I surprised I missed the concert and my GF thought I was off getting my bang on.

All sorts of Festivals showcasing hordes of one hit wonders.
I know there is more just can't remember; guess I just like the Weed and the drink more than the music.

What would you do without rock and roll? Sex and drugs, what else?
