Best show I have seen was U2 here in Birmingham @ Legion Field with the opening act of Public Enemy back in 1992. I didn't realize my girlfriend at the time had tickets until after I got back from football practice at the same location (we had to move out of the stadium since it was being setup for the show that night.) and I checked my messages and there was the invite. Being a good room mate I asked if there were enough tickets for my room/team mate to go and he got the hookup with the best friend of my girlfriend at the time...they ended up getting married. Anyway here is the set list for U2 in that show.

Setlist:   

   1. Zoo Station
   2. The Fly
   3. Even Better Than The Real Thing
   4. Mysterious Ways / Love To Love You Baby (snippet)
   5. One / My Girl (snippet)
   6. Until The End Of The World
   7. New Year's Day
   8. Whiskey In The Jar
   9. Tryin' To Throw Your Arms Around The World
  10. Angel Of Harlem
  11. When Love Comes To Town
  12. Satellite Of Love
  13. All I Want Is You
  14. Sunday Bloody Sunday
  15. Bullet The Blue Sky / The Battle Hymn Of The Republic (snippet)
  16. Running To Stand Still
  17. Where The Streets Have No Name
  18. Pride (In The Name Of Love)
  19. I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For
  20. Stand By Me

      encore(s):
  21. Desire
  22. With Or Without You / Shine Like Stars (snippet) / Love Will Tear Us Apart (snippet)
  23. Love Is Blindness
  24. Can't Help Falling In Love

Staind is pretty good, I listen to them every now and then.

September 24th, Houston Texas, I'm going to a Blink 182 concert.

9/9 for me. Stoked for it. ;)

seen ZZ Top twice, always a good show. Saw Rise Against, Rancid and Billy Talent this last weekend, laid out a few d-bags that didn't know where the pit is. Next up is Crue Fest; Motley Crue, Godsmack, Theroy of a Deadman and Drowning pool.

Hell, Rancid was in town? Crap! I've been wanting to go see them.

Going to see Yes in 2 weeks and the Allman Brothers 2 weeks after that.
What you think of Yes with the Anderson stand-in and with Wakemans kid on keys?

I was not enthusiastically impressed but still enjoyed the show for the most part.  I was really pleased to finally see/hear Asia play after all these years.

me and my pals were smart enough to exit asap once we saw the stage being ripped apart by the crowd....the beatings started about 30 minutes after we were outta there.  true story....still have my t-shirt.........and it's funny because every so often I see young kids walking around with the reprint of the 77' tour shirt.......

I would have loved to seen the whole show......I cut a lot of lawns for those tickets.....but as a 16 year old punk kid....seeing them play Nobody's Fault.........well......still gives me chills thinking about it.
