Gigs?

[Kiki]

So how many gigs have people here been to? I have only been to 1 in my lifetime. What was your favorite?

[RaineyWins]

I have only been to two, both Ray LaMontagne, so I guess he was my favourite
The second was better though

I've never gone to a gig for a single band; always to festivals like Austin City Limits, SXSW, Fun Fun Fun Fest, etc. I've been to 9-ish festivals, give or take one.

Surprisingly I find rap concerts to be the best. Maybe I have just not seen the right rock act in person.

Jay Z
Snoop Dogg/Eminem/Dr. Dre
Wu- Tang Clan
