<p>I am now convinced, from the bands listed in this thread, that we should all meet up at Bonnaroo. [Bonnaroo</a> - Artists](<a href=“http://www.bonnaroo.com/artists/2008.aspx]Bonnaroo”>http://www.bonnaroo.com/artists/2008.aspx)</p>
<p>I know I want to go to Bonnaroo- but I am kinda afraid of the camping.
I have tickets for Wild Horse Campground for Sasquatch though
[Sasquatch</a> Music Festival](<a href=“http://sasquatchfestival.com/2008/]Sasquatch”>http://sasquatchfestival.com/2008/)</p>
<p>anyone have an RV?</p>
<p>My boys camped in 2006. They were 16 and 19. They were fine and had a great time. Their only complaint was the lack of showers, but they washed their hair in the bathroom sinks and managed to stay relatively clean. This year, for a small fee, you can take an actual shower. I think the whole family is going this year. Hearing their stories about the music and the fun made me jealous I didn’t go with them.</p>
<p>And, I rarely post!</p>
<p>HS Four Seasons GREAT Beach Boys AWFUL</p>
<p>College All great -Neil diamond 2X, Elton John, Henry Mancini</p>
<p>After marriage America -Terrible, only played 45 min. Rest, Great-Elton John again, Moody Blues, ELO</p>
<p>And, for our 10th anniversary, I begged H to bring me to see Julio Iglesias. He hated it, I loved it. In return, he said I had to go to the concert of HIS choice-- Pink Floyd. It was the best concert I ever went to.</p>
<p>I would love to have been at the Beatles’ first US tour in 1964. But I was a few months shy of being born…sigh.</p>
<p>Another one I wish I’d seen…Pink Floyd</p>
<p>Kenny Chesney- but we’re going this summer. Brooks & Dunn- I’m sure that will come up soon. Brad Paisley- same.</p>
<p>I would LOVE to see Bruce Springsteen…but with two kids in college and his ticket prices, that is on the wish list only. </p>
<p>I always wanted to see the Eagles live.</p>
<p>Best live concert I ever was at…
Blood Sweat and Tears at Blossom Music Center…either 1971 or 1972 summer.</p>
<p>Oh…and James Taylor, and Peter Paul and Mary (both outstanding show folks).</p>
<p>saw pink Floyd (without Waters) in 1987 & 1988.
Finally got to see Roger Waters last summer.</p>
<p>Checked another one off the bucket list </p>
<p>Actually got to see Billy Joel and Elton John at the same concert and play together. Piano MEN.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>BS&T was the first concert I attended (around that same time). Opening act was a then unknown folk singer named Don McLean. He brought the house down with “American Pie”.</p>
<p>I don’t know if you guys know this, but in AP US History they actually study “the sixties”. Took my daughter to see Phil Lesh & friends and was surprised to see there was still the old Deadhead scene in the parking lot. She was tickled to see authentic sixties era hippies selling tie dye, peace medallions, beads, incense, etc. It was like history coming to life for her!</p>
<p>Is anyone else having trouble remembering which concerts they saw? I’m thinking I may have seen Pink Floyd or maybe it was just that we played “The Dark Side of the Moon” so much that I think I remember seeing them.</p>
<p>I’ve seen Bruce 4 or 5 times, including one of his very first performances in the 70s. He is incredible.</p>
<p>I still have all the stubs. 30 years worth…</p>
<p>Well I guess my chances of seeing Led Zep live are pretty slim. And at 40-something, I’ve gained a whole NEW appreciation for Jimmy Page. What a freakin musical GENIUS!</p>
<p>I feel fortunate to have grown up during the era of the greatest music ever!</p>
<p>Been to tons of concerts (and have had some crazy memorable experiences!). Haven’t seen Clapton yet, or Dire Straits, so I guess there are some things to look forward to!</p>
<p>Best concert moment(s): I had missed seeing the Eagles during the Hotel California tour & was always bummed about it (a little), so when they came thru Italy in 2001 for the first time ever, DDH picked up some tix for their show set in a Piazza in a beautiful medieval town in Tuscany.<br>
There were only about 10,000 in attendance & many of those were relaxing on the balconies of these ancient Italian buildings crowded around the piazza. DH & I were on front row - very close. Incredible experience.
Almost came home w/ the drumsticks too until an Italian girl decided to grab ahold of them. We stood there forever, both clinging to those drumsticks - I thought I could either create an “International Incident” or let go & try to negotiate for one of the sticks - alas, it was not to be.<br>
But we had a great stroll back to our hotel room in a converted 12th century convent where dour 3DS were waiting. Magical…</p>
<p>… Cut to about a yr & 1/2 later and we took the 2 older boys w/ us to see the Eagles here in the states. Seats on row 5. Timothy B. Schmidt calls DS2 up to the stage during the concert & gives him his guitar pick. That was ds’ first real concert - had to tell him that was very unusual.</p>
<p>Ah well - thanks to all for letting me stroll down memory lane w/ you.<br>
Cheers to all - hope all your concert dreams come true! :)</p>
<p>I am looking forward to the Led Zepp tour this year. Could see Fleetwood Mac again. CSNY are always worth the money.</p>
<p>cartera - well, I was present at Pink Floyd, but the parts I remember are kind of iffy
It was their Animals tour, inflated pigs, etc. and I thought we were under attack!</p>
<p>sueinphilly - that’s the same Elton John/Billy Joel concert I saw! It turned my daughter into a true Billy Joel fan and she’ll never be the same.</p>
<p>so were you at veteran’s stadium in about 1993 when it was at least 103 degrees…</p>
<p>Billy Joel was my first concert in 1978… Unless we’re counting David Cassidy at Steel Pier in Atlantic City in 1970 or 71??</p>
<p>sorry… no. I meant to say that I saw the same tour. I believe it was in the spring of one year, maybe four years ago? And inside, thankfully.</p>
<p>It was so cool how they mostly took turns singing each other’s songs as opposed to their own.</p>
<p>Just found ticket stubs. BJ/EJ concert was 1994.</p>
<p>and according to the records, I saw the Allmans 2x.</p>
<p>Best concert venue EVER - Red Rocks in Colorado. I could listen to anything with that scenery around me…</p>
