Re: Non-Creed Concert List

Listing all of them would be way too much / hard to remember. Here are some highlights though. Some are bigger bands/shows while others are smaller for bands I really like.

Pearl Jam - PJ20 night 2 - 9/4/2011 - Alpine Valley - East Troy, WI
This was night two of the band's 20th anniversary. Bunch of other bands opened, and PJ played for over 3 hours. Awesome show!

Pearl Jam - 10/20/2014 - Bradley Center - Milwaukee, WI
Band played Yield front to back!!

Finger Eleven - ??/??/?? - small rock club in Madison, WI
Can't remember the date offhand. I know I posted about this somewhere on these forums in the past. I had a meet & greet pass through the fanclub. Found out at the afternoon meet & greet that the drummer was hospitalized for pneumonia or something. Weren't sure if there was going to be a show. Turns out the band played an acoustic show instead without the drummer. Something F11 hasn't done (at least at that time, aside from the one-off radio performances). They played like 10 or 12 songs I think. So cool to see! One Way Ride opened the show. I had never heard of that band and after hearing them I ran out and bought their CD. I think they disappeared after their one CD? Never heard of them again.

Hozier - 2/21/2015 - Riverside Theatre - Milwaukee, WI
First time seeing him and it was a great show!

Foo Fighters - 6/28/2012 - Marcus Ampitheater - Milwaukee, WI
First time ever seeing the Foo and it was worth it (although my seats sucked). Silversun Pickups opened. They are my new current favorite band.

Silversun Pickups and Middle Class Rut - 6/30/2013 - Summerfest - Milwaukee, WI
Couldn't pass up seeing my favorite band perform! Great show and was pleasently surprised by Middle Class Rut who is really good live!

Switchfoot and The Balconies - 7/1/2014 - Summerfest - Milwaukee, WI
First time ever seeing Switchfoot and loved the show. They put on an awesome performance! Also never heard of The Balconies, a band out of Canada, but ended up buying their album after hearing them play!

Muse - 3/4/2013 - United Center - Chicago, IL
Second time seeing Muse. I had meet & greet passses and got to meet the band before the show. It was literally a 60 second meeting but I got my photo taken with them! Great show. I think Muse is my favorite live performance band. Their live show is just amazing. If you haven't seen them live, I suggest you do it before they stop touring!

The Airbourne Toxic Event and Kongos - 2/15/2014 - The Rave - Milwaukee, WI
First time seeing both bands. Free show, sponsored by the radio station!! Loved it!! Plus got to meet The Kongos after the show and chatted with them for a bit. Very nice guys!

Louis CK - 10/10/2012 - Riverside Theatre - Milwaukee, WI
Not a rock show, but I saw Louis CK!!! Bucketlist item accomplished!

Patton Oswalt - 1/14/2015 - Orpheum Theater - Madison, WI
Another bucketlist item accomplished!! Love Patton!!
