Ever been to any? How many?
When was your first show?
Who did you see?
My firs real show was when I was 14. It was The Used, 30 Seconds to Mars, Alexisonfire and Street Drum Corps.
I've also been to Taste of Chaos and countless local band shows.

I love music but sadly I haven't been to nearly enough concerts. But the one's I've been to have been pretty awsome.
I went to see No Doubt featuring Paramore, Metallica featuring Lamb of God, and then in Dec last year I saw Ozzy . All of the concerts were amazing and loud, the only regret I have is missing Tegan and Sara when they came to Cleveland.

I'm going to my first concert next month. I get to see Elton John! *swoon*
"Being gay and blunt in Canadaland."
~and~
"Trying not to be Swiss cheese in Pantoland."
Jinny Baza, over and out!

I've only been to one real concert. I saw Linkin Park. They were awe-some.  It was back in October of 2010.

I've been to a few- not as many as I'd like, but very few good bands come to my area. I've seen Lacuna Coil live twice now, and would love to see them again. THEY WERE AWESOME!!!!
My first... I was 13 or 14. The headliners got stuck in Europe so only the support played; and by the time they got on everyone was kind of bored. Not the best ever. But there was still some pretty good music 
I would also REALLY like to see the Scissor Sisters live, because of the visual spectacle and how theatrical their performances are. I just think it would be an awesome experience

I've also seen Lacuna Coil live twice They're such a fantastic band to see live, it was brilliant.
I saw countless bands at Sonisphere last summer, including Iron Maiden, Papa Roach, Rammstein, Alice Cooper and so many other awesome people
And Taste of Chaos the most recent one, featuring Halestorm, Buckcherry, Papa Roach and Disturbed.
Unfortunately, I'm unavailable for Sonisphere this year, meaning I will miss seeing the Big 4, but I may get a chance to go to Download, which just has a mind-blowing line-up.

I've been to 4 concerts.
The first concert I went to was with my family to see Steps, I didn't like them but was made to go. Can't remember when it wads.
My second concert was to see McFly, Motion in the Ocean, which was in 2006.
Third was Westlife, 2010.
Fourth was My Chemical Romance,which was in February.
My Chemical Romance was the best. I got right up next to the stage and all. Nearly had an asthma attack but refused to move further out because I'd never get that close again XD

Going to my first concert (Rise Against, Bad Religion, some band I've never heard of) in May with my friend. I can't wait. Rise Against was the first rock band I ever got into, so I'm really excited.

I've been to four: Eric Clapton, Bruce Springsteen, Paul McCartney, and Gorillaz. They were all great but Gorillaz was the best! :3

I have been to 5/6 concerts (Went to see Paramore twice in a row) and two festivals. First concert I saw live was Michael Jackson, and I was 6 or 7.

I've been to a few concerts at the university in town. Boys Like Girls, and then Hellogoodbye. I don't count either of them as my first real concert. April 8th, I'm going to see Coheed and Cambria in KC. I'm so excited it's ridiculous.

The vast majority of the people I've seen in concert are pretty embarrassing. My first real concert was Avril Lavigne, when I was twelve.
Since then I've seen Tokyo Police Club, Angels and Airwaves, Hedley, Stereos, Akon, Lights, Weezer, Snoop Dogg, Kardinal Offishall, Dead and Divine, Boys Like Girls, Fefe Dobson, illScarlett, and I'm pretty sure that's it. A couple of those were together though, in a festival-type situation. I've also seen a bunch of local bands and such, plus Finger Eleven in a bar my dad worked at when I was like eight.

The first concert I ever went to, I'm ashamed to say, was Hillary Duff. XD Actually that's not true. Even before that I saw this christian singer with my dad called Nicole Nordman.
After that, I saw Avril Lavigne, back in her punk(ish) days. (She was my first girlcrush, swear to cheese nips.)
I then saw Paramore, which was slightly cool the first time.
THEN TEGAN AND SARA FOR MY FIRST TIME, WHICH WAS SO SO SO SO EPIC!!! And Holly Miranda and An Horse opened for them, before I even really knew who they were, sadly.
After that, I saw The Offspring (they were on tour with some other bands, but I don't really recall any of them but 311.)
Then the last concert I saw was Tegan and Sara at the end of last summer. Well, actually it was a Paramore concert with T&S opening, but Paramore BLEW, and we left basically after Tegan and Sara's set ended. :3
AND IN JUNE I'M GUNNA GO SEE MATT & KIM!! SO PUMPED!!

Well, it depends on what you mean by concert. I've been to TONS of little whole-in-the-wall stuff, but that's not really what people are talking about here.
In terms of big name stuff, I've seen A Day To Remember, Black Eyed Peas, Bob Dylan, Franz Ferdinand, Modest Mouse, and I'm going to see Panic at the Disco and Cage the Elephant this summer. I'm still made at myself for missing Tegan and Sara. Gaaaa.
I couldn't even begin to list the little bands, but I think my favorite concert of all time was Strfkr. Some crappy rap music was before them, but they were AWESOME. They did some kick-ass lighting even though it was in a tiny room, and everyone was dancing and jumping and it was awesome.
I've been thinking about hell, and it's got to be a much nicer place than heaven... all the gay men are down there. You KNOW it's well decorated.
If being gay is a disease, lets all call in queer to work. "Sorry, cannot come to work today, still queer".

3. [October 2010] Blood on the dance floor, Breathe Electric, some local band, and a band that I can't remember.
Great days. :3
