I'm sure over the years, some of you have been to a few concerts

me i never really went to just a single bands concert , but did goto big day out a few times
vans warp tour

kiss
acdc

oh the mavis's when they came to town
and a ska band which the name escapes me at the moment

saw a few guest big name dj's over time , but i was under the influence so can't remember their names either
 
Yeh i liked my SKA back in the late 90's too. The Porkers were my favourite band, along with Less than Jake, Mighty Bosstones, older No Doubt stuff & reel big fish had a couple of good albums..

I attended all the big days out from 95 to 2005, then I just felt old and they introduced the barriers after that girl got killed... The day Korn, Marilyn Manson & Hole played was probably the best for me.

Went and saw the Mark of Cain again this year, all time best band.
Best concert Ive seen was Rollins Band & Mark of Cain at the UNSW roundhouse. Brutal night.
 
OK I have been to the following that i can remember

AC\DC 1988, 1991, 1996, 2001, 2010

Iron Maiden 2011

Bruce Springsteen 2013

oh saw psuedo echo the other year , me and a bloke from the radio station (that is also an 80's fan) went to a gig they had up moama , there was about 20 of us in total , it was awesome
 
So many

stand-outs though in no order for atmosphere and sound.

beach boys
The Stones
Mental as anything
The hoodoo-gurus
Midnight oil

And Pete Frampton
 
Way too many to mention. Probably see on average 8-10 bands a year for each of the last 15 years, plus I go to Soundwave each year.

Went to a few BDOs early in the piece but their lineups don't do a thing for me these days.

Best I have seen:
Faith No More reunion show a couple of years back.
Tool (seen em 5 times and they are phenomenal live).
Prince (the dude did about 6 encores. Played for close to 4 hours).
Dillinger Escape Plan for pure intensity.

I went to Kylie Minogues last 2 concerts and the Foo fighters in Dec 2011. Fooies were the best concert yet. Bon Jovi at eastern creek was second best. It hailed when Jimmy Barnes was above to come on as support act. Keanu Reeves band Dogstar was the other support act.
 
In no particular order:

Amorphis
Evergrey
System of a Down x2
Dream Theater x2
Living End
Queens of the Stone Age

Do big name DJs count? Armin et. al.

They are amazing live (from a technical standpoint), you would swear they were playing a studio recording most of the time.
