What is your first, last and next concert?

So far this year, Iā€™ve seen Lake Street Dive and Hairball (80s rock cover band from MN). I donā€™t have tickets for anything else just yet, but Iā€™ve got my eyes on a few for later this year, including the Tedeschi Trucks Band, and probably a day of Summerfest. If I can swing the cross-country trip in July, I may also go see Dead and Co. with my dad, too.

I had no idea they were still together and touring!

How were they Adi?

Yes I did not know either and was very surprised when Spotify popped a notification out on my phone :smile:

Yes very good Stefan, if you get a chance to see them definitely recommend it!

First: Deep Purple in 2018
Last: Scorpions in 2019
Next: who knows, maybe a concert after our victory. Scorpions said theyā€™d like to perform there.
Iā€™m still sad that I missed both Iron Maiden and Poets of the Fall shows I had tickets for at first because of the covid and now because of the war.

Just fresh from Vytautas Magnus University Botanical Gardens in Kaunas, Lithuania. Was a very small open-air concert in front of maybe a hundred chairs at most (might have been the smallest venue that I actually witnessed in my life); mainly, local (Lithuanian) performer with a wide range of styles (each of her album is quite different from the last) singing live accompanied by an electric piano player (in a very small gazebo lol). We sat in frontā€¦ it was quite enjoyable. And that got me thinkingā€¦ I donā€™t think that many artists would do such a small venture.

First: Gordon Lightfoot, 1980

:upside_down_face:

First : Def Leppard, Hysteria tour, Wembley, 1988
Last : Rumours of Fleetwood Mac, Portsmouth Guildhall - good, but not great.

First: I WANT to say VH 5150 tour in Chicago cuz it was the first I physically bought tickets for. But I have to go back to when I was a kid and my parents took me to Willie Nelson and Family live at Poplar Creek Amphitheater outside Chicago, this was probably about 1980-ish

Last: Whiskey Myers with Read Southall Band and The Weathered Souls in Tuscaloosa, AL back in October '22. Opening acts far exceeded my expectations and the headliner delivered

Next: unknown
