Most Times in the Most Places?

[eppst1]

I've probably seen Over Kill the most (probably close to 10 or 12 times), but mostly in the Pittsburgh area. I've seen Blind Guardian 6 times in 4 different places (Wacken, BGOA (2x), Atlanta, and Cleveland (2x)). I also got to see Arch Enemy in Japan when I was on a business trip couple of years ago. The coincidence was amazing.

I've seen Dream Theater more times than any other band. Here's how it breaks down:

1997--House Of Blues Chicago (with Big Wreck)
1998--The Vic Theatre in Chicago (with Full On The Mouth)
1998--World Music Theater in Tinley Park, IL (opening for Deep Purple and
Emerson, Lake & Palmer)
2000--Riviera in Chicago (with the Dixie Dregs and Star People)
2000--Riviera in Chicago (with Spock's Beard)
2002--The Vic Theatre in Chicago (Evening With...performance, 1st night)
2002--The Vic Theatre in Chicago (Evening With...performance, 2nd night, with Master Of Puppets set)
2002--Rosemont Theater in Rosemont, IL (with Joe Satriani and King's X)
2003--Aragon Ballroom in Chicago (with Queensryche and Fates Warning)
2004--Riviera in Chicago (Evening With...performance)
2004--Star Plaza in Merrillville, IN (opening for Yes)
2005--Tweeter Center in Tinley Park, IL (as part of Gigantour)
2006--Congress Theater in Chicago (Evening With...performance)
2007--Rosemont Theater in Rosemont, IL (with Redemption and Into Eternity)
2008--Rosemont Theater in Rosemont, IL (with Opeth, Between The Buried And Me, and 3)

That makes fifteen times, with a sixteenth show coming up in August. In addition, I've seen Joe Satriani ten times, and Dokken and Symphony X are currently tied at nine times.
