I am going to 10 years Wed. at the Valarium. Got Disturbed May 6th at the same place and PJ 6-16 in SC. Its at the Colonial Center, so there will probably be a few "Cocks" there. I am hoping i don't see too many tho.

Wonder if Disturbed has changed their stage act at all. Have seen them a few times and the second and third time was the same as the first. Haven't seen them in a while though, so maybe they have changed it up a bit.

This will be the first time I have seen them. The place their playing is pretty small, so I am looking forward to it. I think Five Finger Death Punch is with them.

I have not heard too much, just the song they have out now (The Bleeding) It's pretty good. XM has wore it out tho.

Best concerts I have ever been too is Incubus and Metallica

I don't really still listen to Incubus anymore, it's actually been maybe 3-4 years since I have, but I saw them several years ago when I still listened to them and was very very surprised at how good they were live.

Man I almost went to that but I would've had to miss a UT home football game or something I think. I had some good reason for not going. I did have a ticket saved for me if I had chosen to go. My roommate went and is all over the DVD made from that show.

Dude, it blew me away. I managed to get about 30 yards from the center front. I lived a quarter mile from the park, so walking there was sweet too. I've never seen that many ppl in one place before in my life.

Incubus has some of the best drum solos ever. It's cool to see Ben Kenney and Brandon Boyd join in too. Jose Pasillas was beating the drums and then another drum set comes out for Ben Kenney and Brandon was playing bongos.

my best show was probably Pearl Jam in Charlotte a few years ago.

Also had a great show watching Third Day, Jeremy Camp and this really great group I was introduced to who are now probably my favorite band, The Elms in Sevierville about 5-ish years ago.

Ted Nugent put on a great show at Freedom Hall in Johnson City just a few years ago. Couldn't believe he could still be that entertaining.

Worst concert was seeing Dave in TBA around 2001. He was drunk and it was just awful.

Jimmy Buffett indoors just isn't as much fun either.

One of the maxims I live by is that by and large, the smaller the venue, the better.

Saw Weezer at the Tabernacle in Atlanta. Awesome atmosphere. One of the best times I've had at a concert. They usually keep a very good lineup. I'd suggest checking out a show there.

Incubus was a good one, but I believe I was the only one there that wasn't high.

Cake was pretty good too but they are an odd band.

I've seen DMB, but Dave was hammered and could barely stand up.

That is actually not all that uncommon. I don't know that I've ever seen him live and knew for sure that he was sober.
