ReverieCode Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 (edited) That's it, have you been to some concerts? If so, what bands? where/when? I saw U2 when they came to Sevilla, Spain as part of their 360º Tour. One of the most spectacular things I've ever seen: I also went to see Foo Fighters in Madrid. Dave Grohl is awesome!! And I love Nirvana, at least I can say I saw the drummer What about you? EDIT: I went to Arctic Monkeys! Barcelona, 2013, and I was relatively close to the stage, so it was awesome. Really great when they played Mardy Bum as acoustic version. Edited November 7, 2014 by Playsonic2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeMcD- Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Oh I'd love to have seen one of U2's 360 performances live. I saw the recording and it just looks so epic. I'm not well versed when it comes to live performances, so far I've only ever seen The Coronas last Arthur's Day. It was great fun even though I had no idea what all but one of their songs was 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustHatched Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 I've been to more than I can count, the most notable would be Guns N Roses in the mid 80's before Appetite for Destruction blew up the airwaves in Danville Illinois and Metallica in Indy when they toured the black album. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll be here again this year on the 29th of May, if I'm not mistaken. That might be your chance . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splatter392 Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Saw Billy Talent together with Anti-Flag and Arkells (amazing concert, it was just a bit too hot in the arena), and We Are The Ocean together with The James Cleaver Quintet. The cool thing was that the We Are The Ocean concert was in a little Bar in Hamburg and the band stayed there after the concert and talked to the fans. Got myself a completely signed CD and some photos. I'm going to see them next month again, can't wait! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopher Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 I live in the "Live Music Capitol of the World," so I've seen maybe 100-200 different live bands. Some bigger names include Weezer, Muse, The Eagles, Mumford and Sons, Cage the Elephant, and much much more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReverieCode Posted April 2, 2013 Author Share Posted April 2, 2013 hey'll be here again this year on the 29th of May, if I'm not mistaken. That might be your chance . Wasn't aware of that, I'll see if I can make it! By the way, I forgot to mention: I saw Interpol in the U2 concert, and The Gaslight Anthem in Foo Fighters. In FF's show there was also another group, spanish one.. but I arrived late and missed it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddie1989 Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 (edited) Have seen Metallica 3 times inc at Wembley, Foo Fighters at Wembley. Also seen AC/DC twice, Motorhead, Green Day and loads of others. Had the pleasure of seeing The Big 4 at Sonisphere festival as well.

EmperorDrizzle Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) I'm from England and this man came touring around most schools. He came talking about achieving something and don't do drugs. Unfortunately my school was not the best at the time and the end of YR11 with 2 people preggers, people who ran away from home, some sad deaths and people going to jail. The tour was basically a waste of his time but here is the song he sung to us: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r5OtFosqtbM Edited April 3, 2013 by EmperorDrizzle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
