wow, on the cusp of the 50th PJ show, any plans to make it super special!??! My 30th show was on my 30th B-day!
I'm trying to tie a work trip in to the Atlanta show. I figure that will be a pretty standard festival setlist but hopefully my 51st wll be extra special and out west

I'm confused, is this the top 5 bands you have seen live? or your top 5 bands and how many times you have seen them? Cause if it's the latter i will change my answer :?
my "updated" list
Pearl Jam- 3
Metallica- 6
Black Keys- 4
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club- 5
Alice In Chains- 3 (Jerry Cantrell solo- twice)
and there are tons more which i left off
8/28/98- Camden, NJ
10/31/09- Philly
5/21/10- NYC
9/2/12- Philly, PA
7/19/13- Wrigley

Tres Mts.- 3/23/11- Philly. PA
Eddie Vedder- 6/25/11- Philly, PA
RNDM- 3/9/16- Philly, PA
The rest are not necessarily in my top 5 because I love some bands but either never got the chance to see them or have only seen them once. So the following are bands I have seen a lot but may not be favorites anymore. If that makes any sense at all.
3. Metallica - 16
4. Van Halen - 12
5. Alice in Chains - 1
Some great tastes on here...I'll do my best to select a top 5:
1. Pearl Jam (19x)
2. The Black Keys (8x)
3. The Who (1x)
4. Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band (3x)
5. The Roots (8x)
I guess for favorites I have some honorable mentions (in no particular order), like the Red Hot Chili Peppers (1x), Foo Fighters (3x), Michael Franti & Spearhead (6x), Ben Harper (9-10x), Jimi Hendrix (0x), Beck (1x), Neil Young (1x), Gaslight Anthem (0x), Nirvana (0x), Soundgarden (0x)...I am sure if I sit here this list will go on for miles...
Hmm I guess it is lame to say Pearl Jam are there any others hehe
Seriously...
1. Pearl Jam x 1 (Sure wish I could put more numbers behind that x but it was the most awesome show)
2. Pink Floyd x 2 Ahhh an oldie but what awesome couple of shows...
3. Live x2 Ok what is it with singers name Ed. This guy rocks but doesn't hold a candle to Eddie V
4. Toad the Wet Sprocket x1 these guys where awesome but who knows where they went. Why cant peeps stay together like you guys sigh hehe...
5. Peter Gabriel OK he is awesome too damn he must be getting old like us...
Damn no room for Floggy Molly everyone should see them once !!!
PEACE
