Evanescence - good but disappointing at the same time
Kasey Chambers - brilliant!
Killing Heidi - also brilliant
off the top of my head...
Puddle of Mudd - Gimme a break, I was 18!
Seven Mary Three - Pretty good
Incubus - Really good, though I'd probably think differently now
Flaming Lips (4 times!) - outstanding, of course, every time
Widespread Panic - don't really remember the show, which means it was a good time!
Disco Biscuits - " "
De La Soul - Pretty good, for a rap show
Deerhoof - eh. Band was good, the crowd was horrendous
Of Montreal (2X) - outstanding, the best live band out there right now
The Killers - surprisingly great, probably the closest thing to a Springsteen show I've seen
Common - again, rap, but not bad
MGMT - fun, psychedelic, wild
Thievery Corporation - Laid-back, chill, very cool
Eisley (2X) - decent the first time, great the second time
There's others, but considering nobody'll care about the ones I have posted, I'll save us both the trouble.

I would never ask this question to my dad. He's been a regular concert attendee for the last 35 years or so.

It's been forever since I went to a concert,
The best though are
Pink Floyd
Def Leopard
Ted Nugent-it was ok, hubby loved it.
A coworker of mine saw him in Charlotte last night, said it was an outstanding show. I guess their keyboard player just died, which sucks, and he said Clarence Clemons seemed to be showing his age a lot more than anybody else up there, but that it was still an outstanding show.
He said there was a 9-year-old girl up front holding up a sign that said "you're way better than Hannah Montana", then on the back it said "play _____" (some song I hadn't heard of). Well, not only did he play it, he pulled the girl up onstage (maybe she's the next Courtney Cox?) and let her sing the chorus! Pretty awesome.
