What was the last concert/show you saw?

[Vickip]

I saw Neil Diamond in Birmingham on 28th June.

He was good and I enjoyed the show but I didn't get that 'wow' feeling that I was hoping to get from seeing someone I've liked for so long. I'll admit that the best concert I've ever been to was on my mind and I kept thinking that Neil wasn't capturing my attention like a certain someone did.

The same thing happened to me when I saw Huey Lewis on July 19th, the night after I had seen Meat at the Count Basie Theatre. I used to get that 'wow' feeling from them, but it actually a little bit of a let down after the amazing concert the night before :wink:

[LucyK!]

Kenny Rogers in Lancaster, PA tonight ... I wish I had gone to see Meat at the Balloon Festival instead :(

Ohh no did you not enjoy it? Tell me everything

[RoknRollJesus]

last weekend saw Iron Maiden in Newcastle..front row... fantastic..

I'll bet...Lucky you! I wish they would tour more over here....love them...love Bruce!!

[RoknRollJesus]

You are so lucky, you always get to go the the best shows. Cinderella is awesome. I am a 80's girl and I love metal

Thanks - I definitely do my best! :-P
Cinderella has always been top notch - Tim Keifer is simply amazing!

[Julie in the rv mirror]

I just saw Joe Grushecky and the Houserockers in Pittsburgh. Their special guest was some guy named Springsteen- he wasn't half bad! ;)

[melon]

Meat, in Perth....

But come Tuesday it'll be Dolly Parton....

Alice Cooper on the 29th Oct at Alexandra Palace...great show

[amandanoa]

Meat in Wellington - before that it was Meat in Christchurch and before that Meat in Melbourne lol

[Ollie241189]

The last concert I saw was my first ever concert and that was Meat in Birmingham last December!!! Freakin awesome!!!

[juniper]

Chicago, they were phenomenal, the sound was beyond anything I've ever heard in a live concert (I've not seen Meat in concert). It was a semi-small outdoor venue and they were awesome.

Around the same time I saw Crosby, Stills and Nash, who haven't changed in years, they sounded fabulous.

[SueL]

MEAT LOAF

4/29/11, American Theatre, Lancaster, PA

I've seen Meat before (just twice), and plenty of others over the years, and that show was HANDS DOWN, the absolute best! :cheer:

[Sue K]

My last was probably Meat last July in Hershey PA... No need to say how great THAT was... lol ... and I have a NEXT !!! I'm seeing The Monkees Aug 31 2011 and very looking forward to it. I have a nosebleed seat so I think I'm going to do the giggly fan thing and get there very early to check out the ins and outs of the place before the show ... :twisted: ...

Welp, I never got to see the Monkees as the last leg of tour was cancelled... Oh, well... There's always next year... or the year after ... lol ... I'll buy the ticket and take the ride !

My last concert was Kenny Rogers in July ... I was supposed to see Weird Al and Steve Miller Band in October, but it was bad timing and I didn't make it to either one. C'est la vie .. there's always the next time :-)

[Meatfan4ever]

My last show (parish fair) was Niel McCoy and Tod Hernden-Oct. 16, 11.

My last show (NO arena) was Def Leppard and Heart-Sept. 20, 2011.

My last show (stadium) was the best ever, Meat Loaf-Sept. 1, 2011.

[The Flying Mouse]

:twisted: Jo and I saw Bill Bailey at the Liverpool Echo Arena last night.
Great view from the front row :mrgreen:

Highlights of the night were when Bill performed Hallelujah in the style of Kraftwerk, and when one of his horns went a bit funny when he was playing a tune on a collection of old fashioned car horns. He played the song twice but the horn hit a flat note on both occassions. The crowd loved it and Bill was laughing his head off and ended up slumping to the floor in a fit of giggles and hiding under a large cloth in mock shame.
He went for it a third time and played the song all the way through perfectly and got a big round of applause for it.
Great night watching a very funny guy 8)

[samurai7]

Bill Wyman's Rhythm Kings: great stuff!
Katy Perry: what a show.
Ed Byrne: one of my favourite comedians, absolutely hilarious.

Next up I'll be seeing Paul Carrack again. Can't wait!

[AndyK]

Bill Wyman's Rhythm Kings: great stuff!


Aww didn't know they were touring again, saw them a few years ago in Harrogate and they were superb!

[Moonlight shadow]

Meat Loaf: Lisbon calling.

[melon]

:up: Stone Cold, one of my all time fav tracks

He didn't have a very long set (Or maybe I'm just spoilt by Meat & AC/DC :twisted:) because he's had a few heart issues in the last couple of years and I'm guessing he may not have had the insurance to cover going longer, or possibly due to the venue licence, after all it was in a zoo in the middle of the city lol.

He did a few Cold Chisel numbers, some of his really well known solo stuff but no Stone Cold. All in all it was a really good show.

The Set List:

Love & Hate
Time Will Tell
I'd Die To Be With You Tonight
Lover Lover
Merry Go Round
Flame Trees
Lay Down Your Guns
Dead Heart
Ride The Night Away
You Got Nothin' I Want
Resurrection
I'm Still On Your Side
Driving Wheels
Working Class Man

Khe Sanh

[JennaG]

The last show I went to was when I accompanied my sister to see Steps in Birmingham.

It was all fancy special effects and costume changes but I think they might have been miming. :shock:

[melon]

I have a couple I am looking forward to, Thursday I am going to see Florence and the Machine, on Meat's recommendation ;) seriously if he hadn't said how he liked Florence and that she was really good I probably wouldn't have bothered.

Next month its Mary Poppins :)

[melon]

I just got home from Florence and the Machine, and boy do I owe Meat a thanks for that.

If he hadn't mentioned how good she was in an interview somewhere at some stage I honestly never would have gone. A lot of my friends like her, but I never bothered.

Well, I've been missing out. What a fantastic, amazing voice! She had that whole place like putty in her hands, literally if she said jump they jumped ha ha.

Even I was completely mesmerized by what was going on up on the stage. My aunty was noticing all sorts of things that were happening in the crowd and the line that went past us, but me? I didn't notice any of that.

She went off befoe the encore, gouged a massive hole in her foot backstage, was carried back onto the stage and finished the encore. She still managed to dance around, but had to be carried back off.

She was fantastic, chatting with the crowd and just genuinely having fun. She kept saying "This place is so big, there are so many of you here..." Lol

I'm glad I went.

Awesome- I love Pete! I saw him last this past February. He's working on a DVD supposedly- I'm not sure when it's going to be released. So cool that he got his old Les Paul back after 30 years.

The last show I saw was "The Wall" at Wrigley Field in Chicago.

The concert was amazing. He can still rip it up! His music was the soundtrack of my childhood and I'm so glad I went. Just hearing all the Jimmy Webb songs was enough for me. Glen sang my favorite Webb song, "The Moon's a Harsh Mistress." It was a music moment for sure. If Campbell comes close to your area I would say it's a MUST SEE.

[Sarge]

HI Lyn,

I would of loved to have seen Bon Jovi as well but according to a friend who went he wansn't that great in life. I guess live performances are so diffrent from the polished releases we get on cd's, dvd's and Radio.

For the second time this year, I accompanied my sister to see Steps. It was my first outdoor concert and it was a different experience to any of the other shows I've been to, the atmosphere was a lot more relaxed than arena shows and it was kind of nice to have a picnic beforehand,

I never thought that Steps would be the people I'd be seeing twice and had I have had things my way, they wouldn't have been.

[Julie in the rv mirror]

I've just seen...the heart-stopping, pants-dropping, house-rocking, earth-quaking, booty-shaking, Viagra-taking, love-making, Legendary E Street Band! Twice! :D

Two fabulous shows at Wrigley Field in Chicago, including guest appearances by both Tom Morello and Eddie Vedder both nights. And, unfortunately/fortunately, I got to experience one of those rain shows first hand. :-)

[Monstro]

So the E street band need viagra?

[Julie in the rv mirror]

So the E street band need viagra?

According to Bruce, they do. :lol: Hey, most of them are close to/over 60- what do you expect?

Of course, if any of them have an erection that lasts as long as the Helsinki show (4:06), they need to seek medical attention. ;)

[Adje]

Just something stupid you didn't need to know but I'm telling anyway

Spring and steen are two Dutch words. And if you translate them you get Jump and stone. So basically if we translate his name to English (I said it was stupid) you get the name Bruce Jumpstone :lol:

Bobby Cronin feat. Danielle Hope and special guest Nathan James.

Erm, it was some fella in Birmingham. I think his name was Meat something. ;)

He was very good.

[Sebastian.]

I don't know but I was with Tony. You had to wear headphones and the band were in a soundproof box. They weren't that good.

[Michael Marxen]

So far this year besides Simple Minds, Jeff Scott Soto, Danny Vaughn(!), FM and Heat there were some SteinMeat-related ones here in Germany too:
The Darkness and Rock Meets Classic (with Bonnie Tyler alongside Paul Rogers, Chris Thompson (MM Earth Band) and Journeys Steve Augeri).

And Pink, Rick Springfield, Roger Hodgson, Bruce Springsteen, Toto, Bon Jovi and Robbie Williams (don`t blame me, have to do him for my wife) to come.

Showing off to proof that there are us fans not just single-minded focused on Meat.

But bottom line is most multiple Meat-nights give me way more "erections of the heart" (stolen from Jim) than any other gig!

[LucyK!]

Ooh how did you find The Darkness?! I saw them in 2003/04 and they were fantastic!!!

We went to see James on Friday at the M.E.N. My husband loved it...pretty much the whole arena loved it, but apart from a few songs I found myself struggling to stay awake...lol. (Strange because I enjoyed them at the Bridgewater Hall in 2011.) The best part was Peter Kay's surprise performance at the end.

We were supposed to see Noah and the Whale on 13th of May but they cancelled about a week before due to a promotional opportunity. We have yet to hear about the rescheduled date....grrrr.....ok, rant over - been wanting to rant about it somewhere! :)

[LucyK!]

Mr Loaf...about a million times but still doesn't feel enough!!

The other show we saw during the tour was Tanz De Vampire!! Andy's seen it before (in the US) but I'd not seen it so we caught it in Berlin during our ML trip...what a show! Just phenominal! To hear Jim's music ringing through a theatre was amazing, it seemed so at home there. If anyone's not seen it I can't recommend it highly enough...made me wanna be a vampire! :lol:

It was so good, and the way Bruce caught the crowd out with it was brilliant!

He'd only done a couple of songs before he was doing requests from signs and it seemed really early, then he says "so, we can continue to take signs and do requests....or we can give you Darkness On The Edge Of Town from start to finish" - everyone went mental, it was so brilliant as clearly no-one was expecting him to say it!!

Racing In The Streets was the best it's ever been!

[AndyK]

It certainly caught the casual concert goer at Wembley out, and for that The Boss gets full marks :))

I've seen a bunch of videos; Racing was spectacular! :cool:

I'd love to see Darkness live- it's my favorite Bruce album. He only did Darkness here twice, and I wasn't able to make either one. (I did manage to make it to NYC for The Wild and Innocent, though :cool:)

Cool on the surprise factor- when he played albums here they were announced beforehand. Darkness was on the setlist, though, so if he took requests instead, it would have been the biggest audible in history. :lol:

(Of course, the umm... bootlegs :angst: help a little. ;) )

Of course the grass is always greener isn't it? I rarely see a set list from a Bruce show I wasn't at and not think "I wish I'd been there to hear that" ... but then looking at the set lists for the shows I have been at "I'm glad I was there to hear that"

[LucyK!]

A prime example being Coventry getting the Born To Run album, which means they got Jungleland and Backstreets!

I agree; I haven't been to a show yet where I didn't get at least a few gems. Of course, the setlist is only a part of the picture, and some of my favorite shows have had very "standard" setlists. I've seen almost every song I've really wanted to see at this point anyway. But still, every now and then there's that setlist that makes you go :drool: :lol:

A prime example being Coventry getting the Born To Run album, which means they got Jungleland and Backstreets!

If I were there, I'm sure I would have loved it, but I saw BTR twice, and I seemed to be a Backstreets magnet for a while, so I wouldn't have been gutted to miss that one. Of course, at this point, I'd be happy just to see a show- ANY show. :|

Glasgow got Tougher than the rest, quite jelous of that.

He rarely plays Tougher without Patti (though I know he did in Australia), so that was a lucky get!

I'm the exact opposite - I seem to always get Racing In The Streets rather than Backstreets...stunning every time but I'd give anything for Backstreets, we had it for our wedding music (that and R&R Dreams, it was a Bittan-fest! :lol: ) and I've managed to never see it live!

I find it so funny and interesting how it works out sometimes, how you might see one song often that other people are chasing, and vice versa. There seems to be somewhat of a geographical component to it as well.

The last (Dream) Tour, I got "Kitty's Back" three times out of six shows, and that song's somewhat rare.

I wanted "Incident" in the worst way, and I always seemed to miss it by a show. :doh: I finally saw it when he played the WIESS album in full, but I gave up getting it as a surprise, and since then I've seen it twice, both solo performances. :cool:

The only song I'm wishing for now is "The Promise".

Good luck getting "Backstreets" btw. ;)

[LucyK!]

The exceptionally brilliant Kenny Rogers.

This was the second time we've seen him, he'd obviously aged since 2009 (haven't we all!) and I think appeared tired from Glastonbury, but he was absolutely outstanding yet again.

He is effortless, it almost looks like he's not bothered but the voice coming out is perfect! Extremely funny too, he had the audience in stitches...a wonderful night from a true gentleman :up:

[Michael Marxen]

Seeing Bruce yesterday in Mönchengladbach/Germany:
Can one of the many diehards here tell me about "Trapped"? Which album?
Also loved the powerfull live versions of Man`s Job and Mary`s Place.
Was bored at the start, sound was bad, daylight didn`t help, but he and his band of 16(!) finally won me over again. And there still is some Bat relation in the band plus some of the piano-parts sounding like Jim they could have come from genius Jim. :-)

We saw Bon Jovi last month in Cologne too. I know of his reputation being an a...hole and he may be one the way he handles Richie Samborra (which probably only few insiders can really judge). And he is less the genuine performer like Springsteen, more American showman. But he can put on one hell of a show! And he deserves more credibility, changing setlists and even variations inside songs massively from night to night. BTW, obviously singing live for the most part. Bottom line: over-the-top! :D

Another highlight has been Toto, closer "Home Of The Brave" being worth attending alone. :D

Not everything this year was great though, don`t ask me about Whitesnake or Rihanna... :oops:

[AndrewG]

Seeing Bruce yesterday in Mönchengladbach/Germany:
Can one of the many diehards here tell me about "Trapped"? Which album?

Trapped is a cover from Jimmy Cliff. Bruce and the band started to play it during the River tour. One of the very very few covers which regularly still comes back. Probably because the Bruce arrangement is pretty strong I think.

[AndyK]

Mick. Keith. Charlie and Ronnie aka The Rolling Stones at an average age of 69 they knocked it out of Hyde Park tonight.

[Julie in the rv mirror]

Trapped is a cover from Jimmy Cliff. Bruce and the band started to play it during the River tour. One of the very very few covers which regularly still comes back. Probably because the Bruce arrangement is pretty strong I think.

A live version recorded on the River Tour can be found on the bonus disc of "The Essential Bruce Springsteen" set. I love seeing it live; it's one of the few songs I remember him playing the first time I saw him, also on the River Tour. :cool:

And there still is some Bat relation in the band plus some of the piano-parts sounding like Jim they could have come from genius Jim. :-)

I think you have that reversed; the Bat parts came from genius Roy. ;)

Are you talking about Bruce or Bon Jovi mixing up setlists and arrangements? I don't know about JBJ, but Bruce is a master at both of those things.

(Despite Bruce does it too) I was talking about Bon Jovi! Their - well, his - gig was the best non-Meat gig we saw in ages.

I just saw Lynyrd Skynyrd tonight; "Freebird" was dedicated to "Everybody up in Rock n' Roll Heaven". :cool:

[AndyK]

Bruce, again two nights running. Cardiff and Leeds. Incredible, memorable nights both of them.

You wait 30 odd years for Roulette and then two come along :yay:

Leeds First Direct Arena is a fantastic venue, would have loved to have seen Meat in there, but that that seems unlikely now sadly.

[besty]

Bruce last night at Leeds was simply outstanding.

[Butcher King]

Matchbox Twenty and the Goo Goo Dolls. Went with friends and had ZERO expectations. By the end of the night I was sold! Great musicianship by both bands especially MB20.

I actually want to join the E Street Band. :shock:

They just get better and better, Bruce's energy continues to shock everyone, and he's extremely funny too! Roy Bittan's as legendary as ever, and Jake Clemons is rapidly becoming one of my favourite people on the planet...he's outstanding!

Highlight was at Cardiff...we were stood on the barrier at the head of one of Bruce's platforms that he walks out onto. During Spirit In The Night (which is one of my favourites anyway!) Bruce brought Jake down onto the platform, lots of handshakes from both of them, then they laid down! So there's Jake - with sax - laid on his back on the left, Bruce on his back on the right, and us in the middle! Thought I'd gone to heaven :lol:

[Julie in the rv mirror]

This is why I was so happy after the decades long wait ...

Congrats, Andy! :cool:

I always thought Bruce should have set Jay Weinberg loose on "Roulette" while he had him- that kid could pound!

Still so jealous over this:

"Tougher" seems to have gotten a lot of plays this tour.

Personally, I wish I had gotten to see this- just stunning: :heart:

Pl3ehV_Xu70

I don't understand why a couple of goofs thought this would be a good time to yell out. :? Somebody said that even Bruce looked annoyed (can't tell from the video).

he's extremely funny too!

He cracks me up ALL the time! :lol:

[LucyK!]

If I Should Fall Behind was, without question, one of the best vocals I have ever heard.

Got to point out to anyone that clicks Play on that clip...this song was performed AFTER the encore, so Bruce has already got over 3 hours under his belt when he starts this! Unreal...

Highlight of Leeds for me was Atlantic City and Shackled and Drawn :up:

[Sebastian.]

Amazing. Going to have to do a few dates next tour!

"Atlantic City" was never one of my favorites until I saw it last year with Eddie Vedder:

[Julie in the rv mirror]

I've seen two shows in the last week or so:

The first was "Frampton's Guitar Circus", featuring Peter Frampton as the headliner, with Sonny Landreth and B.B. King as his support acts. Frampton also had a couple of guests during his set- Larry Carlton and Rick Nielsen of Cheap Trick. Peter's son Julian also came out to sing lead on "I Want You to Want Me" and "Surrender" while Nielsen was on stage. Julian has a great voice- sounds a bit like his Dad. "Surrender" was a blast, with most of the crowd singing along. :D My only complaint was that I wish Frampton's set was longer- he played for about 90 mins.

B.B. King is really showing his age, and he didn't play too much, but he still managed to entertain the crowd. Frampton guested with him on "The Thrill is Gone": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Idq2yqeG-Xc


The other show I saw was Keith Urban in Indianapolis. He also had two support acts- Dustin Lynch, and Little Big Town. Keith puts on a great live show, and he didn't disappoint. :cool: He has a new album out in a couple of weeks, and he's been playing a couple of songs from it- "A little Bit of Everything" and "The Stars Fall For You". I love the lighting designs this tour as well.

Since he was in Indiana, Keith had to play some Mellencamp, so he brought out Larry Crane from Mellencamp's band for "Authority Song":

I must say though. After coming off of 3 straight Meat shows, the Tesla concert was disappointing. The band and music was good but it wasn't Meat! It is going to take an awesome concert that blows my mind to top the past week of Meat's shows!! ;)

Elton John last night- excellent show! :-) I'd forgotten what a beautiful song "Candle in the Wind" is. "Rocket Man" had a stunning new arrangement, and "Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters" and "The One" were both sublime. :cool:

Well, not sure if it counts but I just discovered the 'Friday' show from Queen on Wembley in 1986. On a very rainy evening.

Watched it last night and must say that it was great. Not as well recorded as the well known Saturday show but Queen itself was better. Fantastic concert!

Rock Of Ages - November 2nd (Closure night) :( !!

Meat's Oct. 27, 2012 MMWT Mohegan Sun Arena. I managed to score M&G tickets and got front row seats. It was an awesome show! I told him his Native American name should be, SingingWolf NeverShutsUp. He insisted on the NeverShutsUp part... lol. He told me he could drive me insane, because he can't stop talking. I told him that he couldn't possibly make me nutty and then he replied that I've never been with him on a three hour car ride... lol.

I was so bummed, when he said, he wasn't touring anymore.

I saw Bon Jovi this Saturday. I initially wasn't planning to go at all, but I had a change of heart at the last minute and got crappy seats for $30 two hours before the show. He played far too much of his newer stuff (which doesn't hold a candle to anything before Crush, imo), but the performance itself was really, really good. The stage was awesome, too. Very well done :D

Kicking myself for not going the second night, though. They got Dry County and These Days :(

My favourite part was when he tried to get the crowd to sing along to Because We Can with just his acoustic, and everyone just awkwardly clapped and laughed because no one knew the song :D

I saw Keith Urban last Friday night- excellent show as usual! :D :cool:

He's worked in a good number of songs from his latest album, "Fuse", since I saw him last August, including the first live performance of "Somewhere in My Car":

Last shows I saw was Panto, Robin Hood with Ross Hunter at The Cambridge Arts Theater and Blood Brothers at my local theater :cool: x

[JennaG]

Last night I saw Imelda May and she was just as good as I remember she was when I saw her a couple of years ago. Her vocals were fantastic and she had so much energy and passion into the songs.

[Cherry.Loaf]

Imelda May with Jenna and Ash last night :)

I felt so ill but it was such a great show
