    Ragweed was fun, but I haven't seen them since they became The Departed.

    My other passion besides hunting is music and concerts. I travel quite frequently (thought not as much as before) for concerts of bands most have not heard.
    Also did they countryfestival thing a couple times, but I don't really count those.

    Notable bands you probably have heard of:
    Caught Merle Haggard and Kris Kristofferson a couple years back when they toured together
    Jamey Johnson
    some of you may know The Jayhawks
    George Jones
    Alabama
    Nugent
    Randy Rogers Band
    Reckless Kelly
    Marshall Tucker Band

    The National
    Tame Impala
    Radiohead
    Local Natives
    Edward Sharp and the Magnetic Zeroes
    Shooter Jennings (3 times)
    Stoney LaRue
    Pat Greene
    Cross Canadian Ragweed (like 20 times)
    Staind
    Ying Yang Twins (don't ask)
    Chevelle
    Incubus
    Saliva
    Sevendust
    a bunch of other less known bands

    Favorite: The National or the Shooter Jennings concert with only like 50 people.
    Most badass: Radiohead
    Worst: Staind
    Most bizarre: Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes. We sat indian style in a circle and they played acoustic and bongo drums. It was the hippiest thing I've ever done. I'm pretty sure everyone was high.

    The production was amazing which is what made it so badass, but it was such a large concert that I didn't really like it overall when it came to the music. I prefer small concerts to the huge stadium concerts. But I'm glad I got to see them live.

    I'm shocked Justin hasn't been on this thread yet.

    I've been to a few. Went to a couple of Lollapalooza's including 1994 and 1997. Was waaay too young to be at the one in 1994 with a bunch of my sisters older friends but saw some cool bands at both including Smashing Pumpkins, Beastie Boys, Black Crowes, Tool, Snoop, Korn, Porno for Pyros, etc.

    Also have seen at seperate concerts Roger Waters, Grateful Dead, Dave Mathews, been to two seperate Country Fest events in NY with some big country names, and a handful of others I'm not thinking of. Saw the Bloodhound Gang at the Crow Bar in State College PA years ago too. I know I'm missing a bunch. Other than Lollapalooza, I'd say the Roger Waters and Bloodhound Gang shows were probably the most fun I've been too. I'm not too much into them these days now, but did have a ton of fun years ago at some of these.

    Been to a lot of concerts but the one that always stands out is the Beastie Boys. They were on stage for over 2 hours. It was awesome!

    I've seen Eric Church and Jason Aldean a few times - both put on a great show.

    Billy Joel and Elton John put on a great show too.

    Really enjoyed Jamie Johnson.

    I had to laugh at the "lesser know" than these bands comment. I had only heard of about three of the others. If they are lesser known than that list, they must be a bunch of 6th graders in a garage! lol
