I can't remember who I saw with Niel Young and some of the acts for Peter gabriel.

Edit: I was supposed to see Good Charlotte, Goldfinger, and Eve6 together, but the show was canceled. Boo.
I think that's pretty good for being 13. I LIVE for concerts. :hyper:
 

Very first concert I went to was Brooks & Dunn with my dad. He was the fan, not me. Second one I saw The All-American Rejects and Hoobastank. And this September I'm seeing Hoobastank again.
 
I've been to a bunch of concerts, and I really only remember the headliners, so all the opening acts and the radio shows where like 20 acts go on....well, sorry to disappoint, but I can't even go there. And there's also the MTV Video Music Awards which I attended three times, but I can't remember all of those acts either.

I remember NKOTB when I was just a wee kid.
