I have been to Arctic Monkeys, Brand New, M. Ward, Tokyo Police Club, Of Montreal x3, Janelle Monae, Lady Gaga, Dresden Dolls, Murder by Death, We Are Scientists, and some others probably. Seeing Gogol Bordello and Neutral Milk Hotel soon.
I saw Evanescence live in 2007. The opening acts were Sick Puppies and Julien K. After the show I was able to meet Sick Puppies and get them to autograph my tickets. It was a good show!
Despite having a huge love of music I've never been to any other concert.
Tool a bunch of times and apc but only at summersault...along with a bunch of others.
Megadeth slayer Marilyn Manson
Also I went to the Canadian live 8 ... so a bunch of great bands there
Then like bare naked ladies Bob Dylan zz top George thoroghgood. .. A bunch not worth mentioning like matchbox 20 and trout
It would take me an age to list concerts and their support acts, so here's a list of all the bands I've seen live (with convenient Last.FM links as a few are local/regional):

First was this little festival when I was about ten, various not very famous bands were playing such as Art Brut, Tat, Raging Speedhorn, etc.
Then I saw The Prodigy and Dizzee Rascal. Saw The Streets. I've seen NOFX three times, I've seen F**ked Up twice. Recently saw Cerebral Ballsy. Various other bands over time. I like concerts!
I want to see Against Me! more than anything right now.
Iron Maiden (Twice, 2006 with Trivium and 2011 with Airbourne) Heaven & Hell ((2007, with Lamb of God who hold the title of worst live band I've seen, wall of noise... and Iced Earth, Heaven & Hell is just Black Sabbath with Ronnie James Dio)) Yngwie Malmsteen ((2008)) Scorpions ((with MSG supporting, 2008)) Wishbone Ash ((band called the Hamsters supported them, 2008)) Saxon ((3 times 2009 with Doro Pesch supporting, 2011 with Wolfsbane and Fury UK supporting, 2013 with The Quireboys supporting)) Judas Priest ((Twice, 2009 with Testament and Megadeth, 2011 with Queensryche)) Metallica ((2009 with Machine Head and Sword supporting)) Motorhead ((Four times, 2009 with Girlschool and the Damned, 2010 with Michael Monroe and Skew Siskin, 2011 with UK Subs and the Anti Nowhere Leagye, 2012 with Anthrax)) Turisas ((2010 with Chthonic and Kiuas)) Epica ((2012)) Wintersun ((2013)) Airbourne ((2013))
LET THE HAMMER FALL
I saw Sum 41 because my sister liked them and my parents got me a ticket too.
I saw Lady Gaga because I love Lady Gaga and I don't think there will be many things I see in my life that top the sheer amount of showmanship she put into every facet of that concert. I may be remembering things better than they were.
I saw Distant Worlds which was gr8. Final Fantasy music, what more could I want?
I think I didn't go to a concert until like 3 or 4 years ago. It was an Ellie Goulding one (my friend fancies her) other than that I've been to Electric Six every year since then (they are super cheap and fun and local) and some smaller gigs by local bands. I never really bothered with live music until recently and now I want to go to all the gigs I can because its a ton of fun
Not as many as I would like.

eestlinc got Spuuky & I tickets to Sonic Youth for our wedding gift, I made Del take me to see Neon Neon last year, I gave Jowy my extra ticket to the Ash show in January, and I attended a music festival with Jojo once! One day I will successfully pressure Sarah into going to a show with me.
EoFF Editor using wrong form of "to/too".
An ex once dragged me to a Jason Mraz concert. After about ten minutes the presence of so many people was too much for me so I left and, having no entertainment to hand, wandered around in front of the concert hall for the next two or three hours in the cold.
When she had no particular concern for me and didn't even ask whether I was okay, whilst her best friend was much more attentive and concerned about my wellbeing, that I should have realized she wasn't for me but instead I was a teenager and thus an idiot for a long time to follow.
Anyway that's it, I prefer the careful mastery offered by studio work to the flaws of live performances and I can't handle being in the middle of a crowd for any length of time, so I've never been to another one and I doubt I ever will.
Uhhhhh I played in some orchestra concerts in middle school. Does that count?
