rawkdrummer Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 (edited) Best...Supertramp (Crime of the Century Tour) at the Queen E in Vancouver. No visible amps on stage and best/clear sound I've ever heard. Worst... Alice Cooper (Welcome to my Nightmare) and Alice falling off the stage at the end of the first and only song.

Curmudgeon Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 (edited) First Concert: Led Zeppelin (December 28, 1968) Last Concert: Brit Floyd Best Concert: The Wall (BC Place, Roger Waters) and Supertramp (1981 Empire Stadium) Worst Concert: Blue Rodeo Loudest Concert: Led Zeppelin (May, 1969) Seen the Most: Eagles Most Surprising: Corb Lund and the Hurtin' Albertans and Walk Off the Earth Next Concert: This is Not a Drill, Roger Waters, September 15/22 Wish I Could Have Seen: Moody Blues Upon further review, I would like to change my nominee for Worst Concert from Blue Rodeo (who refused any of the music that people might recognize) to ZZ Top at Abbotsford. Worst acoustics, muddy sound, they mailed it in and there was no joy anywhere to be found. Hideous.

bishopshodan Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 I'm excluding club shows as I was a touring drummer for years as well as I worked in clubs for a while. Saw hundreds and hundreds of different artists. First Concert: Bon Jovi, with Cinderella ( guest appearances by Motley Crue and Areosmith) Last Concert: Clutch Best Concert: Lollapalooza 1 ( in a farmers field in Enumlcaw Was) Jane's Addiction, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Butthole Surfers, Violent Femmes, Fishbone, Ice T with Body Count, Rollins Band. Worst Concert: Danzig Loudest Concert: Lamb of God. Seen the Most: I've seen multiple bands twice but can't remember seeing any 3 times, again excluding club shows ( anyone ever see the Cadillac Tamps? I saw them tons, great live club show). Most Surprising: Sublime ( playing to about 50 people at a BBQ pit in Texas on the same bill as us, we were there playing SXSW in the 90's. Kinda breaks my 'club show rule' but it was such a surprise and they were amazing) Next Concert: GVF if they stop charging a million dollars per ticket. Wish I Could Have Seen: Queen. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brilac Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 (edited) First Concert: Bush at the Key Arena in June 1997. Last Concert: NKOTB at Climate Pledge Arena in June 2022. Best Concert: Weezer at Bumbershoot. it don't remember if it was 2011 or 2012 or 2010. Worst Concert: Oasis in January 1998 at Mercer Arena. The whole show including Cornershop was 2.5 hours. Loudest Concert: Probably Sonic Youth or Hole. Seen the Most: I don't remember. I've seen Weezer a few times as well as Sonic Youth. Most Surprising: NKOTB. Most of the members are in their 50s and they can still dance like it was the late 1980s! And good looking too. Next Concert: I don't have anything planned for upcoming concerts. These days I am pretty much homebody who enjoys nature trails, watching hockey, and playing video games. Oh wait, this question too: Wish I Could Have Seen: Nirvana.
