how many times have you seen your fav band in concert?

[SoundMaster]

How many times have you seen your single fav band live, and on what tours?


For me, with Zep being my fav, the anaswer is ZERO, sadly.

However, Maiden is probably my next fav. I've seen them 8 times:

1991 - No Prayer Tour (w/ Anthrax)
1992 - Fear of the Dark tour (w/Dream Theater)
1999 - reunion hits tour (dont remember who opened)
(2x) 2000 - Brave New World Tour (W/Halford & Queensryche)
2003 - with Motorhead & Dio
2004 - (or late 2003?, with Arch Enemy)
2006 - last night, w/Bullet for Valentines)

That would be Nevermore for me and I have seen them about 15 times. More or less. Not every show was briiliant but every show was good to say the least. The last show was brilliant however, They played their hearts out.

In short; Nevermore RULES

Angra #1 is my other fav. band, never saw them, most likely never will as Angra #2 and Shaaman are now formed.

close behind:

Kreator 2x
testament 4x

 

[No-Mercy]

Iron Maiden - 91

you were seeing maiden while i was escaping from the womb...

 

[sixxswine]

Motley Crue-6 Times
ZZ Top-7 Times
Pretty good considering they don't put out albums all that often...
KISS-4 Times
Scorpions-4 Times
Megadeth-3 Times
These bands aren't my favorites as much anymore, but they are responsible for getting my interest in music started!

 

[Platinum Maze]

you were seeing maiden while i was escaping from the womb...

Actually, according to your birthday in your profile, you were about 6 months away from "escaping". The show was in January 91 (w/Anthrax).

Queensryche - 15 times - 85, 88, 89, 91, 95, 97, 99, 00 (3x), 03, 04, 05 (2x), 06.

Well when you were escaping from the womb in 1991, I saw Maiden in 1980 with Paul Di'Anno - WOW!!!!!!

Just nipping out just now but I'll be back later on and tell you all about how many times I saw my fav bands!!!

 

[Wheezer]

Queensryche - 8X
Blue Oyster Cult - Somewhere around as many.

Zep would have prolly been my favorite but I was born too late. I did see Jimmy Page on a solo tour back in '88. I also saw the Page/Plant Unledded back in, what, '95 or so.

 

[Trans-Siberian Outcast]

I suck in this category. Savatage is my fave and I've never seen them live, although I have seen two Trans-Siberian Orchestra shows.

Blue Oyster Cult is my second fave band and I've only seen them once at a free concert in Chandler, AZ in '97 or '98.

 

[kittybeast]

SCORPIONS!!!
'83 US Festival
'84- w/ Bon Jovi
'88- w/ Winger
'91 w/ Trixter
'02 w/ Deep Purple & Dio (twice)
'03 w/ Whitesnake (Three times)

second runner up would probably be Rush, Iron Maiden or Death Angel but it's 8am and I don't feel like looking at my tix stubs

 

[JonnyD]

That would be Overkill Saw them in 1996 on the Killing Kind Tour 2000 on the Bloodletting tour and 2004 on the Relix tour ... the show in 96 was the first concert I had ever attended
