Welcome! /The concerts so far...

Hey everyone! My name is Brian and I wanted to welcome everyone to my first major blog! I used to blog a bit on MySpace, but no longer do MySpace. 

I plan to update this blog on a regular basis and talk about the different concerts I have gone to, going to and some of my favorite artists/songs/albums. If an artist I like comes somewhat nearby, I try to make it a point to go and see them...don't wanna have the "shoulda/woulda/coulda's". I've been lucky enough to meet some of the performers I've seen and have become friends with them.



To start out with, I thought I'd post a list of all the shows I have gone to as of now. I went through my ticket stubs, programs, etc to try to get all everything as correct as possible. I have a feeling I'm missing one or 2 shows but for the life of me can't think what they are at the moment.




Anyways...here's my list from 2000 to 2012...

  3. I've been to a couple...LOL...I never realized how many until I put together this list! Wow! I don't want to think about the whole money aspect of it LOL. I added 3 more shows that I went to to the list...Sandra Bernhard (January of 2007 and September of 2008) and Bettye LaVette (June of 2006). Just remembered them today!
