1. Tool is indeed incredible live.

2. Zac Brown Band- were awesome (at Red Rocks, it’d be hard not to be).
Every few songs, they did a cover, turned off main stage lights and black lights shined down on the band, which had reflective striping on their clothes that made them look like skeletons. It was super duper extra awesome.

Tedeschi Trucks Band is due here soon. I'd love to see them but their ticket prices are crazy. Like 300 bucks for good seats. Sorry, I saw The Grateful Dead for 5 bucks and the Stones for 13.

One of my favorite bands.

Derek Trucks is a very underrated guitar player.

I honestly have zero wish list to see any musician live. Just not my thing.

Really not my deal either.

The worst show I've ever seen was the Black Keys at Sprint Center. Absolutely the wrong sort of venue for them, and it turned me off to them. I don't like that!

Was that the same time they were in KC eating Woodyard BBQ with Bourdain?

honestly I don't love it either. It's fun sometimes but I'd rather hang out and listen on the radio and drink beer around a fire or something.

However, my wife loves them...so...in the nature of good compromise. We go to most every concert that comes by.

Me either. Generally just find out relatively close in and try to get tickets.

Unfortunately, the way tickets are sold now, this almost always has led me to not going of late, because ticket brokers.

But, ‘Murica right?

I went to a lot of great concerts when I was younger. Wouldn't trade it for anything. Now, I have no desire to fight traffic, try to park, deal with the morans that inevitably come with a large gathering and then try to get home driving in the dark.

Crap I'm getting old, concerts are also too loud.

I too am over big concerts and big prices. House concerts and porch parties I might pay mightily for. The FOMO is not a selling point. My ears can't say that the Red Rocks sounded better than my speakers and I am not having a relationship with these people (don't want one). So, I don't need live. If the price was more reasonable for just calling entertainment, then I would be more interested.... like going to a MLB game. I could watch that on TV, but it is fun for the in-park experience and the price is not a killer for the experience if you are calling it entertainment.
Some things you need to do once if you can afford it. Red Rocks. Allen Field House. etc.

You want to hear John Tesh live, you have to play the game. Thankfully, nobody does. Business model issue I will let someone else solve while I go to small venues or watch at home.
