I am knocking off 2 of my bucket list concerts this month, Pearl Jam and Justin Timberlake. What are some of the acts that you would put on a concert bucket list?
Rage Against the Machine, Weezer, Original Smashing Pumpkins, No Doubt, Pink
I wish I could have seen Journey with Steve Perry. Or Nirvana. As for possible concerts, I saw Eric Church last summer and that was pretty much my number 1 on the list.
A Perfect Circle, Led Zeppelin back in the day, Fiona Apple, Sia, Jesse and the Rippers
I haven't seen APC, but I have seen Tool. I drank during the concert and they had such long interludes between songs that it nearly put me to sleep.
I've also seen Britney during her Circus Tour. She wasn't very entertaining and of course lip sync'd but everything else around her was entertaining. I was glad that I scored free tix for that.
For my bucket list I have to add Tool. I've been to a lot of amazing shows though, sometimes from bands that I was "meh" about before I went. Young the Giant was ah-mazing live. Fell in love immediately.

Was it everything you imagined? Did they rock your face off for old timers?

::gasp:: I've seen Tool about 5 times and had the most amazing time of my life at all of them. It makes me sad that Britney could ever not be entertaining. I love her.
I want to see some major dance routines like she did back in the day. For the most part she just walked around in costume and threw a hand up from time to time like Vannah White. We all know you lip sync Britney, shake that ass and make up for it~!
PJ was awesome. Played for almost 3 hours. It was like 2 days after the new album came out though, and they pretty much played the entire thing. A few of my friends didn't love that because they didn't know the ones yet, which I can see, but honestly they played so much stuff that there were plenty of old tunes.
And yes, at one point I actually turned to DH and said "that just rocked my face off."
I would loooove to see Pearl Jam sometime. Also Madonna. Michael Jackson would have been amazing too. For smaller acts, I'd like to see City & Colour and Modest Mouse at some point too.
One of the best concerts I went to was Bon Jovi because A) tickets were free and 2) they played all the best oldies.
Chili Peppers Eve 6 Good Charlotte SR71 OK Go Backstreet Boys Dave Matthews Incubus Ben Folds Live The Ataris Breaking Benjamin Swedish House Mafia
I'd love to see Nirvana, Madona, Mumford and Sons, Florence and the Machine, Queen, 311, etc. I want to see a lot more...DH and I really enjoyed going to concerts.
I bet a Prince show would be amazing. He killed the Superbowl halftime show.
Prince is amazing in concert! My sisters and I have been to a few of his shows and he always has surprise guests and has a long show,,definitely worth going. I've been to all my fave artists shows mostly. Justin Timberlake a few times ( and going again in January ) Christina Aguilera , maroon 5, no doubt, Morrissey, mazzy star, purity ring, ladytron etc...etc... I think my bucket list one would be The Cure since the always seem to only perform out of country.
This is dating myself but I was lucky enough to see Guns and Roses back in the day. Slash was incredible and Axl had just broken up with Stephanie Seymour and dedicated an extended "Get in the Ring" to her.
One of my husband's biggest regrets was not going to see Pink Floyd on their Division Bell tour. It would be incredible to see them live but I doubt they'll reunite at this point.
Re: Concerts
Not a bucket list concert but I won tickets to Sara Evans and am going with my best friend!!
Mostly exciting b/c A)I never win anything and B)It's an excuse to drink beer, eat dinner, and hang out with no kids!

At this point I could be going to see Disney on Ice for all I care. Seriously just need to get away... Sooner rather than later!

I've seen Foo Fighters, Smashing Pumpkins, Dave Matthews Band, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, Elton John, Paul McCartney and Tom Petty.
Tom petty was the best show I've ever seen by far. That man can rock out.
I still need to see Bruce Springsteen!! And One Direction:)
