My first show was Survivor with REO Speedwagon! Then I also saw REO again with the Georgia Satellites. Not that I'm really a big REO fan or anything, but they are pretty good in concert.

Most recently I just saw Alice in Chains, in September, and it was really awesome. (They were with the Deftones and Mastodon)

Other bands I've seen (not in any particular order):

Pink Floyd
Scorpions
Prince
Tom Petty
Beach Boys with Joan Jett
Robert Plant
Rolling Stones with Living Colour
Metallica
Iron Maiden

One of my favorites was seeing James Brown in East Berlin (in 1988)

I'm sure I'm forgetting a few too...

Ooo, fun. There's some cool stuff in this thread. I just went to the last two Faith No More reunion shows in the U.S. and had a blast. Pretty much go to anything Mike Patton does. I have a friend doing a research project (for pay even) about all the musicians who've performed at any of the San Diego State University venues so I was just looking through my old ticket stubs.

Great list! Cadillac Tramps! We went to see them back in the day. Get this, they were headlining the show and the OPENING bands were No Doubt and Korn.

Oh, and the Femmes were great. I was trying to remember when that was....late '90s I think. Lot of energy from what I remember.

Nice list Carol! I also forgot that I've seen Ted Nugent and Heart too. I also forgot Lynyrd Skynyrd, Glen Fry and U2. Can't believe I forgot U2 since I've seen them 3 times.

I also went to see Herbert Gronemyer when I was in Germany, some Germans on here probably know who he is.
 
Eesh!
