    unfortunately a few of my favorites don't tour too often :cry:


    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

    1. Pearl Jam - 24
    2. The Black Crowes - 28

    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...
