I just have to say that I am extremely jealous of anyone who saw Hendrix live. Man I wish I was older (or maybe not!).

...I finally took pants off and threw out the car window. Just a really bad night all the way around.




I do believe that's the first time that I ever heard a story about a guy coming home from a concert with no pants saying he had a bad time.

bummer...

I would trade every act I've seen (except Grateful Dead at the Fillmore East in 1971) for one Hendrix concert, especially Band of Gypsys New Year's Eve. BUT . . . I just scored two tickets to see Clapton in Albany in June!!

Just to throw my 2 cents in since it's Friday, and I'm feeling unmotivated here at work. Some of you guys have AWESOME lists!!! I'm completely jealous. There really is nothing like a great live musical performance!! Here they come in random order as they occur to me....

VanHalen
Night Ranger
Dave Matthews
Chicago
REM
Skynrd!!!!!!! --> That's right Bren...and it was a fun show
Jars of Clay
Third Day
Def Leppard
Fighting Gravity -- that's for you Cap'n...seen them countless times!! You must be a VA boy too
Counting Crows
Arturo Sandoval -- was a fluke for me to end up at this one..but I enjoyed it
Radiohead
Tesla
Firehouse -- went to a strip club with these guys...hehe
Some celtic rock band whose name starts with a C..but I can't remember...they were actually very good...--excellent musicians
Shawn Lane


Geez...this is all I can think of...I must be forgetting some..(I hope!!) Pathetic!! So many bands I would love to see...sometimes it's hard to find others with similar tastes to go with. For instance...G3 was here not too long ago....with Vai, Satriani, and Malmsteen...but I couldn't find a single taker.

Yeah, Fighting Gravity was a great show... and yes, I spent the best four years of my life down in Charlottesville.

Are you talking about Carbonleaf, by the way?
They are a good celtic rock/pop band. They had that radio hit. "I am the boxer" or whatever. I've seen them a couple of times in C'Ville and once opening up for David Grey. Fun stuff. And surprisingly entertaining live.

As an aside...did you know Fighting Gravity used to be "Boy-o-Boy"...I saw them back then too.

Shuffle Demons (Barrymore's)
Ace Frehley (Barrymore's)
Rush

And after disagreeing on Zepp, we're both fans of a pretty darned obscure band. In fact, I paid about $45CDN for a used copy of their Bikini Red on CD.

They really put on an intense show too. I put (Barrymore's) at the end of some of them - if anyone is familiar with the Ottawa area they know Barrymore's is a small club off Bank Street that holds about 800 people. Really get up close and personal with the bands. I could have spit shined Ace Frehley's shoes if I had a shammy in my pocket.
