    I saw them open for the chili peppers at UMASS in 2003

    The set wasn't that good but I think they were rushed through it.

    Nine Inch Nails

    I've been very very fortunate and seen just about everyone I really wanted to who has toured in the last 25 years. Only huge "How have I not seen this???" Is Bruce Springsteen. I still really hope to see him soon.

    I've probably only seen about 0.00001% of bands or solo shows worth seeing... But the ones I REALLY want to see but haven't yet are QOTSA, Joseph Arthur, U2, Eddie Vedder, MMJ, Jack White, Modest Mouse, and maybe U2, although I think their shows are too big.
