Gurn Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 First Concert: Trooper in Victoria's old Memorial arena Last Concert: Rush in Roger's arena Best Concert: 3 way tie, Roger Waters in Rogers' and also in BC place and Bob Seger with Joe Walsh as opening act. Worst Concert: Tragically Hip in Victoria -without a doubt. Loudest Concert: Rush- only for 3 cannon shots, otherwise the audience at Water's hockey arena show Seen the Most: Roger Waters Most Surprising: Randy Bachman, Every Song Tells a Story tour. Really good side players and fascinating to hear how the songs got written. Next Concert: Hopefully Mark Knopfler/Dire Straits, Robert Cray, Bruce Cockburn Wish I Could Have Seen: Queen and all of Pink Floyd 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AriGold Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 (edited) I'll start by saying I've been to well over 200 concerts, this is what my wife and myself like to do with our money. First Concert: Alanis Morissette (1996, Barrie, Ont.) Last Concert: Washboard Union, but in the last few months have seen Chris Stapleton, Dallas Smith, Arkells, Glorious Sons. Best Concert: Red Hot Chili Peppers, They have a 1000 lights in the ceiling that go up and down to the song, was unreal. Shout out to Pitbull, he is hands down the most energetic artist I've ever seen, he gives it 110%. Worst Concert: Smashing Pumpkins at Summersault 2000, they were the WORST, Billy didn't even try, fans were booing them. Shout out to Dave Matthews Band who didn't play any hits the last time he came to Vancouver. Loudest Concert: 50 Cent or Billy Talent Seen the Most: Florida Georgia Line - 7 times, Luke Combs - 7 times Most Surprising: Luke Combs when I saw him at Commodor Ballroom Next Concert: I have a few on the dockett. Alanis Morissett, Nelly, Brothers Osbourne, Walker Hayes, Zac Brown Band and Beach Boys are the ones I've paid for, more coming. Wish I Could Have Seen: Bob Marley and Nirvana Concerts that were cancelled due to Death: Foo Fighters and Linkin Park Edited July 30, 2022 by AriGold 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Down by the River Posted July 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 30, 2022 35 minutes ago, nuckin_futz said: This has been trending on Twitter. Let's see the CDC version. First Concert: Can't remember. Some local show. Last Concert: Metric Best Concert: Warped Tour Summer 2003 Worst Concert: Adam Lambert Loudest Concert: The Used Seen the Most: Probably haven't seen anyone more than twice Most Surprising: Adam Lambert Next Concert: Wish I Could Have Seen: Queen Copy the post and fill in your answers. I basically filled this out to tell my Queen/Adam Lambert story... My wife and I were riding a tram in Venice and saw a poster for Adam Lambert/Queen playing a show in Milan. We had rented a car and had planned to go to Milan a day later, but ever since seeing Queen in Montreal on VHS, I've wanted to see Queen live. Obviously I'm missing out on Freddie Mercury, but there isn't much I can do about this. Adam Lambert has a great voice and got rave reviews as Queen's new frontman. We buy tickets online, download his Montreal show to play in the car, and speed to Milan. And I mean speed. Two months later I would receive about $400 worth of speeding tickets delivered to my Canadian address because I didn't know that Italy uses photo radar and they just kept clocking me going 140+km to get to Milan. Anyway, we make it to Milan with time to spare. There is a line around the block to get into the show. And its full of kids. I mean like 12 years old, 14 years old, etc. I'm so happy to see such a young generation appreciate music from 40 years ago. Way to go Italian parents. We get into the venue and its a sea of 13 year old girls. Adam Lambert comes out first. He does some of his hits, which I interpret as a way to warm up the crowd before the rest of Queen comes on to play their songs. But then we're 4 songs deep. Six songs deep. My wife leans into me and says "I don't think Queen is coming". 60+ minutes later and the show is over. I leave, not with the exhilarated feeling of seeing a band I dreamed of seeing for nearly 20 years, but instead with the feeling of insecurity that I would be seen as some pedo hanging out at a teeny-bopper concert. My wife was not allowed to leave my side. Long story short, we think there was maybe a mistranslation on the poster (Adam Lambert of Queen is what it should have said) or I just misread the poster altogether. The result was spending about $600 to not see Queen. 1 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Ghostsof1915 Posted July 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 30, 2022 (edited) First Concert: Supertramp 1983. It was amazing. Payola$ and Bryan Adams opening acts. Last Concert: Social Distortion at the Commodore ballroom. Wicked show. I hope the bouncers were not nice to the jerk that threw a beer on stage for no reason. Best Concert: Pink Floyd (Division Bell Tour). Honorable mention: The Police at GM Place. I missed them in the 1980's so it was great they still were awesome live. Rolling Stones, Voodoo Lounge Tour. Worst Concert: Pains me to say it. The Kinks. They were late, only played new stuff, none of their classics, and it was short maybe 30-45 minutes? I was very disappointed. Runner up: Robert Plant. Stage design was wild. He was still a fantastic singer. But didn't have much of his solo material at the time. Loudest Concert: Queensryche. Ears were ringing for days. Seen the Most: Never seen a band more than once. Unless you count local bands. I've seen Jazzberry Ram and Barney Bentall a couple of times. Most Surprising: Lee Aaron. Little dynamite package. Man can she sing. Diana Krall, smooooooooth, knows how to play a room. Heart. I went with a friend. I was surprised how great they were live. Pity the crowd was older and not into it as much. A-Ha at Expo 86. Next Concert: Band Maid in Seattle in October. Wish I Could Have Seen: 1982 Queen E theatre. The Fixx/Flock of Seagulls/ U2. Man that would have been a wicked show. I was standing in line, and it sold out while waiting (Happened to me twice with U2, once with The Police). Love to see Iron Maiden as well.
