I know there are many more, but I don't want to take up the whole thread. My wife designs backstage passes for a living for most any band you can think of so we get a lot of free concert tickets and free backstage passes.

[Skwisgaar]

Christ, that seems like one hell of a job! You're lucky man :)

[Space Viking]

Great part is all I did was marry her!!! HA HA!!!! not to mention that it has helped me with my bands relations to some other artists. It's all about who you know!!!

[Skwisgaar]

True, true. Sounds great man!

[kittytoki]

since me and my uncle had to lie to my grandparents i've seen only lamb of god.


i've been to plenty of spanish bands, though.

[Space Viking]

COOL!!! you ever seen Los Lobos or Manic Hispanic? Mabye the Gypsy Kings?

[kittytoki]

most of the spanish bands i go to aren't..rock or anything XD; and its usually those 'family' things where they have it in a park and everyone can go and crap..and its free. besides my grandparents can't stand rock/metal -_-

[Space Viking]

AHHH!!!! the traditional spanish bands, we have a lot here in Reno. Don't worry sister. I saw my first metal band when I was 19. I lived in a small town with broke parents so concerts were out of the question. YOUR DAY WILL COME!!!! Viva la musica de la diabla negra!!!


HA!!!! Bet you guys never guessed Space Vikings knew spanish!!!

[Skwisgaar]

Some of the local bands here are alright. There's a brutal one in the next town. I also played a gig a while back with a DETH Metal band from glasgow who just used drum machines as they were fed up with drummers, those guys were awesome:

[easy]

concerts are kindof my way out... nothing helps vent stress like the mosh and some metal. I recomend them all - you can add Seven Dust too that one too. (wasn't the best show, but a good time.)

[DethKlok]

I'm listening to the DethAlbum, LOL. So, that's good enough for me. ^.^

[easy]

Some of us had interest in Metal before Dethklok reinvented it.

[Murderface Girl]

Dokken
Alice Cooper
Judas Priest

[Mardu Entite]

I've only seen Dethklok. I missed Deicide and Moonspell when they came through last time. Same with Ensiferum.

Still... As metal as concerts are, there are very few bands I love enough to actually be able to enjoy having to make the sacrifice of being crushed by masses of beer-stinking people, those being Dethklok, Strapping Young Lad, Opeth, Blind Guardian, Origin, Necrophagist, and Dragonlord (LORD, not FORCE). I can't stand crowds in the first place and the combined smell of beer, sweat, and body odor makes me nauseous, so the only place I think I'd ever feel comfortable in at a concert would be on the stage.

Dimmu and GWAR will be great shows, Save enough money for me too will ya? :D

I live in the *Guitar Noise* Hole of nowhere so it is hard for me to find shows, The best I have been to is a few Def Leopard tribute bands, A Bon Jovi tribute band and another one I can not remember...All at the local bar :rolleyes:

Bon Jovi (Twice).
Nine Inch Nails (I had to give up seeing Dethklok for them).
Collective Soul

Dragon Force
Korn (Twice)
Stone Sour
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Flyleaf (Twice)
Evanescence

And I have tickets to see AC/DC in December.

[Mardu Entite]

snarky comment

Not my fault I hate crowds. Besides, I'm more metal than all, considering that I'd rather be onstage causing the brutality than down in the crowd enjoying its after-effects.

[DethDay]

Agreed. I would rather be up on the stage making people demolish each other rather than be down there where someone's palm rubs my crotch every five seconds.


Nine Inch Nails (I had to give up seeing Dethklok)

An hero.

[Comradette]

I haven't seen very many big or heavy bands.
I've seen Slipknot, Shadows Fall, and Lamb of God.
On the other hand, I've also seen Modest Mouse, Man Man, HORSE the Band, and mc chris a couple times.
That's all I can think of, at any rate.

[Infr4mer]

OH MY GOD!!!! My band actually opened for Horse The Band here in Reno!!!! They're one of my favorite all time bands!!!! I can't believe someone else on this board has ever heard of them, let alone seen them!!!! Kudos to you!!!!

[Comradette]

That's badass! I've only seen them once in Indiana, but I listen to them all the time. That's awesome you got to play with them. Hah! High five, man!

[Space Viking]

***SMACK***

virtual high five has been given. They were really cool guys. Nathan was funny as hell. The dude snorted tapatio right after our set and got all red-faced. Crazy bunch of guys. My buddy got the Pizza! EP signed by all of them. Always good to meet a Horse the Fan!!!!

[Comradette]

Yeah, I saw them when Burger King was giving out those star wars wind up toys and I gave one of them my Grievous toy because he said he needed that one.
So, yeah, they seemed pretty damned cool.

[Infr4mer]

Just saw Testament, Children of Bodom and Black Dahlia Murder.

Bodom and BDM were terrible, Testament was amazing.
