The Last Live Music I Heard ?

Depeche Mode last tuesday. Pretty standard "stuff", I guess it is the end phase of their world tour as the gig never really "took off" until they played "Personal Jesus" and that was like 1 hour 30 minutes into the gig. That was my fourth Mode concert.

Got tickets for Killing Joke in April, Whitney Houston in June, U2 in August.

 

Bryan Adams a couple of years ago in Limassol, Cyprus lol

Planning on jazzing things up a bit, going to buy tickets for Metallica in April and U2 in August.

 

Last Friday I went along to a Haiti Fundraiser put on by my Church's minister and his band. They do 60s and he does a great Elvis. It was a cool gig!

Steve W

 

First concert I went to was Depeche Mode in 1985

 

Now THAT was a long time ago....

 

Never have been a fan of large crowds and too loud music. Back in the day, when I was dating my DW she talked me into going to a Santana concert in ABQ, NM. I did enjoy Santana's early work, but that concert was highlighting another type of music (dont ask me) that even disappointed my DW! That was my first and last live concert!

 

every time it's at st albans we go, "that'll be the day" rock n roll show, 50s, 60s, 70s, music..
That'll Be The Day - The UK's Favourite Rock N Roll Variety Show!

 

The Subways & AC/DC at Wembley Stadium last summer!!

 

Saw 50 cent two weeks ago and it was a good concert. He even had a real band with guitar,bass and drums, not just the computer to play the tracks. Compared to previous gigs he was more relaxed, and enjoyed the gig with the fans.

Billy Idol coming to Finland early June, so it will be very different moods for me on 9th June with Billy, and 10th June Whitney Houston. Wonder if Whitney is in shape to do the concert as there has been rumours that her voice cannot stand singing well and that she was "under the influence of drugs" during the concerts in Australia.

 

Off again, this evening, to see my Minister and his band.

Steve W.

 

Seems like a long time since I started this thread.......dragged my wife along to the Forum in Kentish Town, London tonight to see Josh Rouse. I've always liked his CD albums but didn't have great hopes of his live performance.

Wrong ! Excellent stuff - even my wife thoroughly enjoyed it......

 

Just a few weeks ago i saw Bebo Norman and Meredith Andrews, small venue, great show!

 

Billy Idol was great and especially I liked Steve Stevens who played some really hot riffs with his guitar... Yes! They played for 2 hrs 15 minutes altogether which is very rare these days. Great fun!

Hopefully Bono will be better and will be able to perform in late August in Finland!

 

Last Friday, we were at a concert here to see and hear Joe Cocker for about an hour or so, followed by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers for nearly 2 1/2 hours! It was great!

 

Got tickets for the Ultravox concert August 18th. They are here with the original famous line-up making hits like "Vienna" and "Reap the wild wind". Back to the eighties again...

 

This year I've seen U.D.O. at Tavastia club which was absolutely storming with power, ecxellent! Gamma Ray and Freedom Call were also brilliant, both are German melodic heavy rock bands. At the beginning of June I saw Ac/Dc that put quite standard show, that wasn't so special to me.

At the beginning of August I'm going to the Sonisphere festival where I'm gonna see bands like Serj Tankian, The 69 Eyes, The Cult, Apocalyptica, Alice In Chains, Him, Anthrax, Slayer, Iggy & The Stooges, Alice Cooper (yes, he lives!), Mötley Crüe and above all - the mighty Iron Maiden!

It's a shame that they didn't get Rammstein as a second headliner with Iron Maiden as Rammstein performs in many other Sonisphere festivals. Never saw their show, but I heard that it would be worth the money. Well, hopefully some day!

This year I also hope to see Accept as they release a new album with new lineup and start their world tour.

 

Ultravox was great on Tuesday night. Almost all songs from the Vienna Album and many hits from Rage in Eden. Great stuff. 2 and half hours of hit songs....

Next on saturday U2 in Helsinki Olympic Stadion. That will be great!

Perhaps next Kelis in October....

 

the odd ones.

 

Shoot, the last concert I saw was before I was married over four years ago - Rob Zombie, and Godsmack. I just went to see Zombie, but he stayed on for only like 30 minutes because it was cold and rainy.

I've seen a few good ones here where I am at. One was Megadeth, Anthrax, and Motley Crue.

The best, roudiest, and craziest concert I have ever been to was Rob Zombie and Korn back in 1997. What a night!!!
