Wow, I'm so jealous!!! I've seen them only 6 times altogether (not counting each individual performance from a weekend separately), in 5 places, Brean, Minehead, Port Zelande, Chicago, and Cincinnati. Wish I'd let Rita talk me into the Cleveland show in '04 but I was worried about my job. Turns out I was going to lose it anyway. :p

Mine is probably Queensrÿche... I've seen them about a dozen times, in:
Daytona Beach
Atlanta
Tampa
Barrie
Montreal
Quebec
and soon to add Myrtle Beach.

I've not travelled to see any other bands often, so I will just have to be jealous of everyone else. :)

Got to thinking today and was trying to figure which band I have seen in the most different places and I thought that it would be interesting to hear what some of yours are. For me it is Iced Earth as follows:

1 - Atlanta (DragonCon), I think this was at the World Congress Center right when they were releasing Days of Purgatory

2 - Cincinnatti (Annie's), touring for Something Wicked

3 - Milwaukee (Metalfest side stage), also for Something Wicked

4- Spirngfield, VA (Jaxx), for Horror Show

5 - Atlanta (ProgPower 9)

I wasn't actually following IE around, just happened to be in the same place at the same time for most of these.

And I have seen Overkill at least 5 times, but all in Atlanta at 3 different spots: The Roxy, Masquerade and The Point.

It would definitely be either Rush or Dream Theater for me. I've probably seen Rush the most number of times, but Dream Theater in the biggest variety of places (esp. after this year).

I've seen Rush in WV (first concert ever!), NC (2 locations), VA (3 locations), MD (2-3 locations), and probably somewhere else...?

I've seen Dream Theater in DC (9:30 Club a couple times), VA, couple of times/places in MD, once in Deleware, once in Detroit (was working there for 3 months), once in PA...and I'm going to see them in both MD and NC this summer! :D

With Into Eternity & Nevermore? I was at that show.
Saratoga Winners burned down two weeks ago :(

While it had been closed down already for 2 years, the fire really just was the nail in the coffin as the owners (who said they sold it only a few months ago) had been planning on reopening until running into problems with the building department.
Click to expand...

Nope, the one I saw there was the tour with Moonspell. Bummer about it burning down though, I was only there that one time but it was a cool venue :(
 
I have seen Sabbath (in its various incarnations including H&H) 8 times. I have seen Ozzy, solo, approx 8 times. I think Ive seen Into Eternity a bakers dozen now. There are others who I have seen in good quantity (SX for one), but you wanted the most views...
