Concerts you have attended?

Don't be dissing your prime minster of Canada!

Hey he loves, Celine and have never seen her. Where I have seen her at least once or twice. Plus he is a Nickelback fan. :p
That figures. More strikes against him. The only way you could love Celine is if you had never seen or heard her.
 
Hey I admit, I'm not in love with her either. But I do like her music.

I'm mainly doing it, because he never seen her and enjoys listing to her.
 
Gordon Lightfoot was great. He is old. And he is rather straight forward in his stage pre-amble but his songs are wonderful and my wife and I really enjoyed him (even though he did not do "Rainy Day People" which was a high school graduation song of hers). The opening act was a guy named "Tom Rush". He was funny and we enjoyed him. Wouldn't mind owning a couple of his songs. It was REALLY REALLY good to be back in a live venue seeing a concert. I really missed it. Nothing more until 2022. Hopefully we won't be shut down again.

I forgot to list James Taylor w/Jackson Brown on my list. Here is my updated list.

That Journey/Billy Idol pairing seems like such an odd combo to me.

And are we counting comedy shows as concerts? If we are, then I need to add that we DID end up going to the Patton Oswalt show last Friday. And it was friggin' GREAT.

I have been if they are venue entertainment (not just going to a comedy club).

I should note that these 3 concerts I added today were pretty much free. In June 2020 I had tickets to see Steely Dan & Steve Winwood in concert. The concert was cancelled rather than re-scheduled and they offered me a choice of:
  1. full refund
  2. credit for 1.5 times what I paid and they would also provide a pair of tickets to one of their shows to a frontline worker. Had to be used by end of 2022.
I chose 2 and I used the credit to buy all but about $50 of the 3 shows.
 
Despite despising Royal Blood's latest album, when they announced their opening act is Cleopatrick I bought a ticket to see them both in May.

Friday 14 January 2022
cleopatrick, Ready The Prince (rescheduled from October)

Wednesday 13 April 2022
Easy Life (haven't bought a ticket yet but planning to)

Tuesday 24 May 2022
Royal Blood, cleopatrick
 
Yesterday I bought a couple more concert tickets for next year. I'm going to surprise my partner for Christmas with Celine Dion tickets and I told him we are going to see Journey and the opening act is Toto.

2022
April 8th - Celine Dion
April 9th - Journey w/Toto
Nov 12th - Elton John

Well one concert is officially scratched off the list.

Hope you are happy IRBS, your prime minister cancel her tour. :mad:

Celine Dion cancels North America tour due to 'severe and persistent muscle spasms'

Another one bites the dust (for now). My understanding is that this tour has Toto after April. I am wondering if when they move it they will also change to Toto. I like Billy but Toto is an upgrade.
