To me, they're kind of old and washed up, but it'll be fun for all the high school memories. </p> <p>I just saw Big Freedia in concert last night, and that concert had some of the coolest energy of any show I've ever been to. Capital Cities put on one of the best shows I've ever been to, and Walk the Moon does a great one. I'm seeing Lorde next month, and I have very high expectations for that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-the-best-concerts-youve-ever-attended/page/2#post-1228037 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 18:49:32 +0000 lioneyes 1228037@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>justin timberlake and timbaland (the concert that was filmed for hbo) and the indigo girls at the beacon theater, which is a seated venue with a bar (old person heaven). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-the-best-concerts-youve-ever-attended/page/2#post-1228011 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 18:32:57 +0000 QueensBee 1228011@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Billy Joel with a Paul McCartney cameo!

I am very fortunate! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-the-best-concerts-youve-ever-attended/page/2#post-1227989 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 18:08:31 +0000 ScarletBegonia 1227989@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@raintreebee: Wow I am insanely jealous.

Teenager? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-the-best-concerts-youve-ever-attended/page/2#post-1227979 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 18:03:21 +0000 raintreebee 1227979@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ScarletBegonia: Ahh.

But I so wish I'd done it :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-the-best-concerts-youve-ever-attended/page/2#post-1227247 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 14:14:30 +0000 mlm2934 1227247@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@grizz: and I love ray lamontagne, so I'm jealous of you!!! :)</p> <p>One of my fave things is when singers talk to the crowd, and Amos Lee was awesome, telling stories, and background behind songs! And he sang one song without the mic, pretty interesting - the ryman got so quiet!!! Def see him if you get the chance ever. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-the-best-concerts-youve-ever-attended/page/2#post-1226704 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 11:44:03 +0000 BabyBruins 1226704@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Garth Brooks did 5 shows in 2 days in 2007 benefiting fire relief after some bad wildfires in southern California. I think we went to show #3 or #4, sat in the absolute LAST ROW of the Staples Center, but it was the most amazing concert ever. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-the-best-concerts-youve-ever-attended/page/2#post-1226695 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 11:39:40 +0000 Boheme 1226695@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@runnerd: LOVE Amos Lee!

He is dreamy. </p> <p>I'm so sad we missed/are going to miss two awesome concerts in our area - Justin Timberlake was here last night (and this is his hometown, so I'm sure it was an awesome show!) and John Mayer will be here while we're out of town for Thanksgiving. Boo hiss. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-the-best-concerts-youve-ever-attended/page/2#post-1226680 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 11:33:06 +0000 JoJoGirl 1226680@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>OH and Rusted Root.

I felt semi-famous.</p> <p>Also, Wilco and My Morning Jacket were a great show. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-the-best-concerts-youve-ever-attended/page/2#post-1226584 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 10:59:29 +0000 dagret 1226584@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@thismustbetheplace: I was at that Phish show - it was my first! An absolutely AMAZING vibe and show. </p> <p>I saw Garth Brooks in '98, he was an AMAZING performer. </p> <p>I saw David Byrne a few years ago in a small local auditorium - he was great. </p> <p>John Hiatt + Lyle Lovett put on a great show. And if you'd ever hear Lyle lovett sing you would get why Julia Roberts marry him. Serious inexplicable hotness. </p> <p>I saw the Avett Brothers at Firefly this year and would see them again in a heartbeat. </p> <p>And i am super, super, super excited to see George Strait in February, and Paul Simon and Sting in March! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-the-best-concerts-youve-ever-attended/page/2#post-1226576 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 10:56:44 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 1226576@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went to a Jack Johnson concert several years back. It was all afternoon/evening long, with several bands from his record label. Outdoors...beautiful weather...awesome music. Loved it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-the-best-concerts-youve-ever-attended/page/2#post-1226546 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 10:47:32 +0000 mlm2934 1226546@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We saw Imagine Dragons last year at a small/intimate venue before they blew up, and it was amazing! They were such a passionate, uplifting band - so much energy!!</p> <p>Also anyone at the Ryman in Nashville is amazing bc the venue doesn't have a bad seat. Saw both Death Cab for Cutie and Amos Lee there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-the-best-concerts-youve-ever-attended/page/2#post-1226541 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 10:46:36 +0000 bpcmarj 1226541@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JoJoGirl: That Paul Simon concert sounds awesome. Graceland is one of my favorite albums of all time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-the-best-concerts-youve-ever-attended/page/2#post-1226533 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 10:44:22 +0000 bpcmarj 1226533@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lavender: YES!!! They were there for two nights and the night that I was there it started pouring rain when Counting Crows were singing "The Rain King". It was awesome. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-the-best-concerts-youve-ever-attended/page/2#post-1226469 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 10:31:05 +0000 BananaPancakes 1226469@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been to a lot of concerts and still try to get to a handful a year, but I saw Paul McCartney in May and it blew my mind. It's the only time I've cried at a concert. So so amazing. </p> <p>Coldplay is always good, and Foo Fighters are a lot of fun. I just saw Mumford in Sept. and they were excellent, as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-the-best-concerts-youve-ever-attended/page/2#post-1226414 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 10:16:52 +0000 LuLu Mom 1226414@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Justin Timberlake hands down the best performance, he danced/sang/performed for 5+ hours straight and Timberland made an appearance as well. </p> <p>George Strait because it is just him ad his guitar singing hit after hit after hit...loved it.</p> <p>Runner Ups: Lady Antebellum (great chemistry), Taylor Swift (seriously she can rock a stage), &amp; Pink (her Cirque act is pretty sweet!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-the-best-concerts-youve-ever-attended/page/2#post-1226403 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 10:12:19 +0000 808love 1226403@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bon Jovi. I saw him twice. Decades ago when he first was popular and a few years ago, right before I became pregnant. I love his voice, the music and his off stage presence as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-the-best-concerts-youve-ever-attended/page/2#post-1226302 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 09:36:06 +0000 raintreebee 1226302@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The grateful dead! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-the-best-concerts-youve-ever-attended/page/2#post-1226213 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 09:14:36 +0000 mrs. wagon 1226213@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't been to many concerts for myself but I've been to a few with Wagon Sr. Muse is incredible live. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-the-best-concerts-youve-ever-attended/page/2#post-1226199 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 09:10:49 +0000 Littlebit 1226199@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a country music fan - my favorite was Tim McGraw/Kenny Chesney. Also loved Brad Paisley (but that was more because I had REALLY awesome seats). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-the-best-concerts-youve-ever-attended/page/2#post-1226095 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 08:33:17 +0000 nana87 1226095@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wilco and REM are amazing live! I've seem them both many times (obvi rem was awhile ago since they broke up) and they always rocked so hard! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-the-best-concerts-youve-ever-attended/page/2#post-1226069 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 08:13:51 +0000 JoJoGirl 1226069@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I saw Milli Vanilli live in concert. It rocked my world. :)</p> <p>As far as people who actually sing go, Paul Simon was amazing (back during his Rhythm of the Saints days when he had the entire African drum band up on stage with him), Dave Matthews Band was an awesome concert experience, and U2, although we were so far I couldn't really see anything. And Radiohead. </p> <p>.... aaaaand I just totally dated myself with those answers. </p>
