Let's pull this one out the closet - I'm a music nut and my soon to be 14-year old daughter also following close behind. Nothing like hearing a kid in the backseat singing to Pablo Cruise, Garth Brooks, or Social Distortion. My parents surely weren't music folks, so my concert experience was very limited until late in high school, college, and afterwards. I really want her to be fully immersed as a teenager, plus it's something a middle-aged guy can do with his teenager. Her first concert was last year and started with Darius Kucker, then Weezer/Pan!c at the Disco in the spring, 21 Pilots (her favorite) last summer, and Maroon 5 last autumn. This year we have 8 summer/late fall shows lined up. Started with Collective Soul/Tonic/Our Lady Peace in June, Steve Earle (front row) in July, and Jason Isbell in July (which was my last concert via the OP). This Sunday is Matchbox Twenty/Counting Crows, Hall and Oates in Sept, Judah & the Lion and Foo Fighters in Oct, and ending with Imagine Dragons for her birthday in November. Several of these were small, intimate venues all the way to amphitheaters up to large coliseums. I can think of nothing better to spend my cigar budget on.

Very cool thing to do, Jamie. Memories to last a lifetime.

I just saw Postmodern Jukebox at San Diego State Open Air Amphitheater. Fabulous show. Far exceeded my expectations.

Would love to see the Foo Fighters again, last time was in a small (1500 peeps) venue in 1995.

Last show we saw was Foo Fighters in Milwaukee in July 2021.

Next show we have tickets for is Foo Fighters in Milwaukee next month.

Should say "...last night."

Last concerts I went to were Trace Adkins & Morrissey about a year ago.

Elys and I are planning Duran Duran this year in Boston or NY. We may have an opportunity to hang out with Duran Duran in Boston, so that may determine it. Grace Jones is playing with them in NY hence wanting to go to that show.

They said they were gonna tour in 2024, I hope with dates in Singapore. Singapore is hot for performers nowadays, with muslims in Malaysia protesting against rock and pop concerts they all scrap (potential) Kuala Lumpur dates for Singapore dates. Coldplay 6 days in a row and sold out in no-time. Taylor Swift sold out 6 concerts in a few hours as well.

My wife couldn't even get tickets for Coldplay, she's a fan, so now I'm taking her to Bangkok in February to see the band

We live in The Villages FL and they have a Blues Society club which holds regular concerts once or twice a month. So far this year we have been to these concerts.

We also went to the Hard Rock Cafe in Orlando to see Kenny Wayne Shepherd, and Samantha Fish opened for him back in February.
