I'm starting to lose count of the bands i've seen in the past 28 years but the most memorable will always be my first in 88' , Pink Floyd- Momentary Lapse of Reason tour at Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne.
Quoted from jackd104:Australian Pink Floyd
I've seen these guys, they are quite good for a cover band, also the New Zealand guys are great too.
Pics from concerts from the last 8 years or so. Let's play the name that band/artist/concert game, most are obvious, a couple maybe not so.
Quoted from Gryszzz:Is that Mr. Neil Young ?
If you mean the dude getting crowd surfed/lobbed back onto stage, NOPE.
Quoted from Gryszzz:Gary Busey murdering that acoustic, literally.
Does look like Gary Busey doesn't he, but NOPE.
Quoted from Gryszzz:Is that a J-45 ?
The acoustic? yeah could be, that dude is Joe Bonamassa, he owns a shitload of guitars.
Quoted from ralphwiggum:Marco Minnemman is a beast!
Agreed, probably the very best drummer i've ever had the pleasure to hear and watch live in concert.
Quoted from beepnutz:I'll play mancave:
Satriani
g-3 Satch, Vai,
?
blah Met
Dave Grohl
Roger Waters

?
Joe Bonnamassa
?

Satriani

Vai
Tenacious D.
I'll fill in the gaps but you're pretty bloody close to spot on 
Joe Satriani (was also at the G3)
Satch,Vai and Steve Lukather (from Toto)
Ian Moss (guitar) and Jimmy Barnes from Oz band Cold Chisel
Metallica
Dave Grohl
Roger Waters (The Wall concert, SOOOOO awesome i went 2 nights in a row)
Bon Jovi (Disappointing)
Alter Bridge (The singer Myles Kennedy i consider to be one of the best male vocalists in rock)
Joe Bonamassa
Marco Minnemann (played for Satch at his own gig)
Slash (also with Myles Kennedy singing)
Santana
YUP, that's Bruce getting surfed
Vai
And the D
Quoted from beepnutz:Checking out Alter Bridge and Cold Chisel now.
If you like ballads, and Alter Bridge have some good ones, check out this acoustic version with Myles doing what he does best (incredible vocal range)
Admittedly they have some heavier tunes also, but lyrically they are still great.
As for Cold Chisel, so many excellent tunes but it's hard to say which ones may cross the big pond and be relevant to a US audience, most of their songs are about Aussie life and times. Try this one though and see what you think
Quoted from mickthepin:Correction actually ANZAC.
Deffo don't forget our NZ bro's, you know they'd do the Haka on ya butt if ya did
Seriously though, despite the sporting rivalry between the two nations we have a bond in blood and mateship that goes back a long way!!
Quoted from beepnutz:seen a few bands since the early 70's
HOLY Shheeeeeeeettt, i've been to a heap in 28 years BUT FFS
Can we change this thread to the one's we regret missing out on Odin??
My one biggest regret is never seeing Queen live 
Ahhhh Freddie, no-one will ever get close to your awesomeness.
Quoted from wolfy:Billy Joel
Saw Billy in the 90's sometime, without checking my ticket stubbs (YES Beepnutz i do that too) i can't remember the date or the name of the tour but it was AWESOME!!
So i'm curious now. TheLaw and TravisRT1985, did you down vote Beeps post out of pure jealousy?? not only does that make no sense it also sucks better than any Dyson!!!. I would have loved to see MANY bands he has had the chance to view (notably Queen and Zappa) but that don't make me green in the gills ffs. Would you guys have been just as narky if i had of listed all the bands i've been lucky enough to see?
Quoted from rotordave:Didn't they go to Aussie? I know they have been there before.
Yeah they did mate but it clashed with another concert i already had tickets for, was bloody FILTHY about it too, lol. Just the way the cookies crumbled, already had the other tickets before Halestorm were even announced.
