I have always been a big Rolling Stones fan.Saw them a few times.
Also a fan of the Eagles.
Gotta add Stevie .I love her voice.
Saw her at the Tower Theater in Upper Darby Pa in the mid '80's.

AC/DC I am not much for concerts but made it to these 3.

Who Made Who Tour Aug. 28 1986 in Sioux Falls, SD. They where so loud that they cracked the heck out of the brick arena and caused the arena to put a decibel limit on all future concerts held there.

Black Ice Tour June 23 2009 in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. This was so awesome words can not even come close to describing it.

Black Ice Tour April 17 2010 in Des Moines, IA. The bands last concert in North America.

Elton John. Bought my first Elton John album(Capt Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy) when I was 5, almost 6 years old with allowance money. "My Money" . Love Elton the entertainer, even now. Can listen to anything by him. Especially the early stuff.
Band wise, Rolling Stones, ZZ Top, Eagles, Oak Ridge Boys, ABBA.
Yeah I'm , odd....

Boz Scaggs in his early years, especially his blues songs like "Somebody Loan Me A Dime." Hard to beat Grace Slick though!

Hmmm...I'm all over the board...

1. The Police (never saw them live but did see Sting several times)
2. The Beatles (never saw them live)
3. Led Zeppelin (never saw them live but Page/Plant in '98 and Plant a few years ago were AMAZING)
4. Oasis (saw them several times both in arenas and small venues)
5. Counting Crows (one of my favorite live acts...met Duritz in Ireland while watching Cracker open up for the Crows...nice man)
6. R.E.M. (saw them several times...sad they folded but check out Tired Pony if you are going through withdrawl...Peter plays guitar for the Snow Patrol-led supergroup)
7. The Stone Roses (amazing band and John Squire is perhaps the GREATEST guitar player I've ever seen/heard)
8. Pearl Jam (saw them several times including last month in Hartford. They've gotten BETTER with age)
9. David Gray (I love singer-songwriters...this guy takes the cake)
10. Beastie Boys (you don't have to like rap to LOVE these guys...hope they have a few things left in the vault since they shut things down way too soon)

Honorable mention. The Samples (seen them countless times and one of the first bands I start listening to each Spring...their music makes me smile every time)

So many bands...



I'm all over the map in musical taste, it's hard to pick any one performer or group.

Default Favorite Band

Led Zeppelin!

Too young to have seen them in concert. However, I saw Jimmy Page and Robert Plant (Page/Plant) twice, Jimmy Page and the Black Crowes, Robert Plant solo and John Paul Jones.

I got to meet John Paul Jones after a show he did in Virginia while promoting one of his solo albums. Great guy, friendly and easy to talk to. Got his auto on the cover of Led Zeppelin II and his guitar pick.
