Friday OT - Musical Bucket List

[cyclones500]

I would like to see REM again too (fingers crossed).

One of the few prominent groups I was able to see more than once. (Twice in '85, once in '86).

Red Rocks is 20 minutes from my house. We are spoiled to have such a phenomenal venue right here. We see several shows there every year.

I have always wanted to see an act at the Ryman in Nashville. We're going to Nashville in October so we were waiting to see what the calendar looked like. Lo and behold, Jason Isbell is performing there for 7 nights and we scored tickets for the last night we're in town. I've seen him several times but to see him at the Ryman makes this one even more special.

I suspect we've been at the same show at RedRocks a few times. My next one is My Morning Jacket.

1. Lumineers
2. Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats
3. Flogging Molly (again)
4. Dropkick Murphys (again)
5. Bishop Briggs
6. Beck

I saw Bishop Briggs down in KC a couple of summers ago, and she was really good. Her voice is honestly just incredible - but she doesn't look at all how you'd expect her to from the power of her voice.

I can only think of a handful that I would have wanted to see, but have not:

Stevie Nicks (solo)
Fleetwood Mac
Journey (with Steve Perry)
Elton John

Am thankful that I was able to go to a Dolly Parton concert a few years back in Minneapolis. Going to the CMA Awards in 2010 and 2011 allowed me to see several people perform live who I may not have ever otherwise seen, such as Loretta Lynn and Lionel Richie.

I suspect we've been at the same show at RedRocks a few times. My next one is My Morning Jacket.

I suspect you're correct. We have three more shows at RR this summer - Cody Jinks, Tedeschi Trucks and then Jason Isbell in September.

Last July we were at the Trampled by Turtles concert and ran into Sage Rosenfels.

 

[Cybone]

I have seen:

Van Halen (3x)
DAve Matthew Band
Aerosmith
Cherry Poppin Daddies
Wynton Marsalis

Wish I could see:
Mikes Davis
Dizzy Gillespie
Blood Swear and Tears
Johnny Hartman
Pink Floyd

I was there! Was great...rained all day and stopped just before the show started. I stayed up top and just watched it all. Tons of mud and a sea of people made it perfect.

How awesome was that? I spent the whole time leading up to the concert near a makeshift fire pounding brews in the cold rain. Once myself and three other friends made it in the gates we proceeded to slide down the hill (which by then was one giant mud slide) towards the stage and all got separated. A couple of my friends made it to the mosh pit. I spent the concert clinging to a retaining wall because it was the only stable ground I could find right away.

We brought our tents to camp nearby, but the grounds where such a mess after the concert we just said fudge it and we drove back 6 hrs to Ames that night. Rolled into town around 5 or 6 am.

Certainly one of my favorite memories of college.

I was there on 4/20, and I'll be there 8/8 for O.A.R.

 

[clonedude]

Would have loved to see Pink Floyd, but would definitely settle for David Gilmour.... that would be awesome.

 

[jsb]

I've seen two bucket list people in the last month---Tony Bennett and Paul McCartney. I've seen Garth and Adele and they were both on there.

I'd like to see Springsteen and Elton John too.

 

[Walden4Prez]

I have never seen KISS....yes that is dumb being that I have been a fan since I was a little kid (yes the 70s).

My kids got me tix to the upcoming show in Sept. Score.

The big KISS show is tonight....who's going?

 

[Cyclones_R_GR8]

Tickets are still available for the Jonas Brothers in Omaha

I’ve seen 4 of my top 5, so I’ll go with the top 5 I haven’t seen, in no order.

1. Simon and Garfunkel (this will never happen)
2. Fleetwood Mac
3. RHCP (not a huge fan but have heard they’re awesome live)
4. Die Antwoord (going this year!)
5. Childish Gambino

Tops that I’ve already seen that would have been on the list is The Killers, Paul McCartney, the Black Keys, Foo Fighters, Todd Snider.
