My Bucket List of Concerts
Well, I just bought a ticket for a concert that will complete the “bands I want to see live at some point” set.
The part of the set that I’ve already seen:
- Rush
- Dream Theater
- Tool
- Queensrÿche
- Yngwie Malmsteen
The two I’m seeing in the remainder of 2009, to complete the set:
- Def Leppard
- Metallica (just bought)
Yes, I’m finally seeing Metallica. I don’t know what I’ll do after I complete the set. Actually, I have a couple of other bands that weren’t in my original goal set, but I would definitely go see: ZZ Top and Journey.
And I definitely wouldn’t mind seeing Rush again, if they don’t die of old age before they can go on tour again. Plus I plan on seeing Trans-Siberian Orchestra every year until I leave the country.
After the Metallica show, I’ll have seen basically all the bands I listen to regularly, except for ones that are impossible to see live anymore: Led Zeppelin and Guns N’ Roses (I know they still exist, but their lineup is so not even close to what it was in their heyday that it’s a stretch to even call them GNR anymore).
Well, there. Metallica, bitches. Now I need to figure out how to dress for a Metallica concert before December 12.
