Name the bands You have seen "Live"

[homerdog]

Def Leppard x 6 (+ 1 coming up Nov 5 in Orlando w/ Journey supporting!)

Nice list though, we're obviously from the same era!

 

[Spook]

Wow, some great bands are getting a mention but the person I am most jealous of is Alison because she has seen the Monkees. I missed out seeing them when they were supported by Jimi Hendrix when my older cousins got took to a concert.

In concert I have seen Cliff Richard (my sister is a fan) Gene Pitney and Dr Hook, Kaiser Chiefs and of course Busted and McFly (blame my DD's for that) and varioius others at Top of the pops and Christmas in Popworld

I was a teenybopper and saw the Bay City Rollers many times. There I admit it ! Later my best friend married one of them and I was in the wedding, which was a hugely weird experience! Then there are bands who shoulda coulda woulda been famous but I don't know what happened. Included in that brilliant list are most definatley 20/20! Spell it just like that, do yourself a favor and look them up! Great pop music that we loved to listen to every weekend at the clubs in Hollywood, CA!

My list in the order I remembered them...
The Babys

Rod Stewert - includes the night we snuck in to the Cow Palace outside San Francisco, CA! Such cool memories!
ELO
Stray Cats
The Bee Gees
Andy Gibb
Elton John - illigal I know but young and daring we snuck into the Hollywood Bowl- my friend Yvonne going over the fence and crawling through the bushes first...then we listened to the "birdie sound" she made which was to signal the all clear, yet all it does was signal the laughing fits which followed it!
Code Blue with Dean Chamberlain - local and brilliant brilliant brilliant!
Motley Crew - saw these in the clubs only.Couldn't really avoid them actually!
The Police
Eddie Money

For my first rock concert I went to see Rod Stewart back in 1989. What an amazing show!! He played for 3+ hours and when we left around midnight(I had work early the next morning, bummer) he was still playing strong and kicking soccer balls into the audience. I have been to many concerts, but very few have had such an infectious energy as that one.

The Black Crowes x 2
U2 x 3
