I think the more relevant topic is, "who haven't you seen, that you would like to".

Velvet Underground, Television, Prefab Sprout, Smiths, Joni Mitchell, Steely Dan.

Haha! I'm sure it's possible. I always think it's funny when you start to see the same people at the same types of shows. You start making nicknames for them..."autograph dude", "jean jacket dude", "hair guy", etc.

I would be leather pants and lamb wool lined denim vest guy with home sewn Blue Oyster Cult sign of Kronos symbol from red bandana print on the back and same metal pin on front. (Thanks JR high home ec and metal shop)

Re: Pavement
My girlfriend won tickets to see them in philly, but I couldn’t get off work because it was the day of the show.

Robert Plant opening up for The Who at MSG was one of the coolest things I've seen. We were so nerdy, we video taped our drive in with Bron yr aur playing in and tried to duplicate the opening from Song remains the same as they are going to MSG. Hilarious watching that video today.

That would be awesome. Lou Reeds Transformer is a desert island album for me.

I wonder if Bowie ever came to Pittsburgh.

In the 70s.

Pavement

Saw them at the Pitt student union building.
They're weren't a particularly good live band.

I'll have to post mine later... I have a fairly complete list up to a certain point cuz I used to have it on a personal website.

I forgot about Page/Plant tour...they opened with Immigrant Song, which was awesome.

One of my favorite concert experience was seeing Bob Dylan live at the Zitadelle Spandau, then afterwards taking the subway across town to Kreuzberg to see St. Vitus.

The SST band (St. Vitus)?

Yes.

St. Vincent was great, too. Annie Clark is extremely sexy.

In the 70s.

he came around 2005 to the Benedum if I recall correctly. I couldn't get out of something to make it, but my buddies went.

Vitus with Wino, of course. I saw them a second time without Wino, who got arrested in Norway or something. So Dave Chandler did the singing, which he's not particularly good at.

worst concerts I've seen was Kansas and Bob Dylan.

My April "concert" plans:

April 28: Superchunk
April 29: Built to Spill/Afghan Wigs

Both in Asheville (although different venues).

The Sonics are playing in Bielefeld tonight. I'm not going.

That newish single was fun...but agreed on that choice.

I'd like to see Jeffrey Rosenstock when he comes in May, and my wife got Pedro the Lion tickets for August. I can't think that far ahead, so while I would like to see him, I really don't care atm.

Anyone ever do meet & greets? Met anyone good?

I've done Motley Crue (all time life event), Rob Zombie, SIXX AM, Scott Ian (spoken word, not concert), Bret Michaels, Ghost, Brian Wilson (all time life event).

Will be meeting & greeting Zakk Wylde/BLS next week.

I got to help with getting Gym Class Heroes set up in their pre-concert room when they came to Duquesne and I was dating the girl that was in charge of the committee that brought in entertainment. That was kind of neat. I also got to play on stage with Maynard Ferguson (RIP). That was probably my coolest experience.

I'm jealous of everyone that said Pink Floyd. Even you, NAN.

Met Rob Zombie a long time back.

Ghost is on the list of bands I want to see.
