A list of some of the live shows I've been to, mostly for my own information. Includes music, comedy, and spoken word shows.
This was at an outdoor venue when I was in college, so the details elude me.
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
The best underrated band ever. I've seen them 5 or 6 times at different types of venues.

Nashville 1982, maybe??
Men at Work
Another classic
Bob Seger: Home
This was in MA late 80's
Joan Armatrading
If you don't have all of their albums, you're missing out.
Crowded House
We were so excited to see this concert we didn't notice that Mark Knopfler was playing with him until the very end.
Eric Clapton
Heck yeah
Peter Frampton
I went with a friend who wasn't allowed to go to see them when he was a kid. They recorded a video that night, so somewhere out there I'm in the crowd on a music video.
KISS Online | Official website
Saw him a couple of times, he wore the mirror suit in 103 degree heat at an outdoor venue, which shows dedication.
Chris Isaak
Nothing better than taking your kids to see concerts of people you listened to when you were their age.
Elton John
Saw him a couple of times, always puts on a good show.
Lyle Lovett
Probably one of the best bands playing live I've seen.
Huey Lewis and the News
Adding him because I saw him play with Tom Petty, but he's not my favorite, sorry to the Dylan lovers!
The Official Bob Dylan Site
I loved this band in college
The Smithereens official website
I've seen them a couple of times, once a few years ago and once in college, and they still put on a great show!

An excellent concert at a small venue.

Took the kids when they were little

He was cranky that night and made salty comments about random things that were pissing him off.

Classic new wave
The B-52s
Excellent Southern rock
The Allman Brothers Band
They opened for Elton John but I'm adding them because I technically saw them and they were excellent.
