Re. rock Concerts Alan, you might try picking up a copy of Collective Soul's "Home" DVD where they play along with their home town's Atlanta Symphony Youth Orchestra. It's probably the best rock band/symphony concert I have seen or heard.
The first couple of songs are mostly about the band but if you can stick it out, they do some really nicely integrated stuff with the orchestra. It's also fun to see the kids truly enjoying the experience and perhaps even more fun watching the conductor getting very into some of the tunes.
My Mom is a classical music nut and she adores this concert. Well, Actually, I think she adores the lead singer a bit too much also.
