Man I had (ok still have ) such a thing for Jeff Martin... although my friends tell me its really not him.. I just have a thing for guys with 'square jaws and flippy hair'

Ok lets see....

NKOTB Ok, in my defense.. I was in like 3rd or 4th grade

I was dragged to the following by my mother:
The Village People
Kenny G

I went to the following by choice... and actually like these bands

Type O Negative
Dream Theater/Deep Purple
Dream Theater/Queensryche
Dream Theater/Full on the Mouth
Dream Theater/...forgot who opened for them (x2)
Blue Man Group
A Perfect Circle (x2)
Elton John
Stone Sour
.. a lot of smaller shows with a bunch of local bands

I know there are more... but I'm drawing a blank on this... don't know where the brain is some days

Comedians
Lewis Black
Eddie Izzard (sexie tour)
Jim Florentine
George Carlin

WOW!!!! They are my favorite band of all time. I was there for their Live Scenes from New York DVD. They are releasing their 9th studio album called Systematic Chaos on June 7th. I'm gonna be waiting line to get it.

Oh, I guess I forgot one, but in my defense I was only like 2 years old. My parents went to and took us to see John Denver. I don't remember that show at all.

Well I havent been to see any since i was a kid. But I saw
NKOTB (now I do feel old)
Nelson (twice)
Tyketo (anyone else know who they are?)
Faster pussy cat (well can we tell what era I grew up in)

Awesome! I jumped on the chance when I learned that there was a possibility of getting a giant autographed lithograph when you preorder SC. *crosses fingers, toes and hair* Hopefully I was in the first 500.

Oh yeah, I know who they are. Didn't like them a whole lot, but I do own their album (on cassette tape! ) I thought they looked better than they sounded.
