What music concerts have you attended?
I haven't been to many concerts myself. But, I have been to a few different ones.
I have seen the Oak Ridge Boys, Danny & The Juniors, Sha Na Na, Bon Jovi, Nickelback, Lonestar (small festival), Lady Antebellum (small festival), Paul McCartney and next month I am planning on seeing Ringo Starr.
I have seen some smaller, regional cover bands too. Some like, The Mahoney Brothers, Southside Johnny & The Asbury Jukes, The Fabulous Greaseband, The Soul Cruisers, Decade 8, eleven-eleven and Rain.

Most of mine were so long ago, I'd have to go back and look at my old ticket stubs that I saved, but I can remember seeing Santana, the Neville Brothers, John Hiatt, Buddy Guy, B.B. King, ZZ Top, Jimmy Buffett.....last week I saw Ruthie Foster and Paul Thorn, so I'm getting back in it a little bit.

My very first concert was Baha Men, back when they were still relatively famous before falling back into obscurity.
I took my mother to see Transyberian Orchestra twice...

Yep, on Saturday I saw Ringo Starr & His All Starr Band. The 2012 edition of the All Starr Band includes: Ringo Starr - drums, keyboards, vocals; Steve Lukather (Toto) - guitar, vocals; Gregg Rolie (Santana and Journey) - keyboards, vocals; Todd Rundgren (The New Cars) - guitar, percussion, vocals; Richard Page (Mr. Mister) - bass, guitar, vocals; Mark Rivera - saxophone, percussion, vocals; and Gregg Bissonette - drums, vocals.
They played a few Ringo solo hits and a few more Beatles songs and each one of the "other all stars" played a hit song or two from their respective bands as well.

I knew I'd forget some: Biffly Clyro, Proclaimers, Bryan Adams, Steeleye Span, Katie Melua
Polythenepam, it doesn't matter how many you've seen as long as you have enjoyed them. I do, however, feel sorry for you having to attend One lack of Direction

Todd Rundgren (The New Cars) - guitar, percussion, vocals; How very strange that you put Todd Rundgren's claim to fame as "The New Cars" - when he was famous as "Todd Rundgren" since the early 1970s and is a classic Rock N Roller, probably destined for the Hall of Fame. I guess it is all about the era you know someone in.
