You mean in my whole life? I've seen hundreds of concerts.

Some that pertain to this board:

Yes (25 times since 1980)

Peter Gabriel - 3 times

Steve Hackett - 1x

Genesis (Duke tour - no interest after that)

Steve Howe - 2x

GTR - 1x

Asia - 1x, debut tour, I bought tickets before the album came out (ouch!)

Eric Johnson, 3x

Unfortunately, the prog giants don't tour anymore, and the lesser known bands rarely tour, especially to places like Colorado.

Great news, just read Jethro is comming to Perú on September, I'm going to see them for the third time in my own country.

I thought that Ian would never come again after he broke his leg in the last concert here.

Again too many to mention but highlight include:

It Bites - Once Around The World tour (an astounding night)

Thin Lizzy - Thunder & Lightening (RIP Phil)

Cardiacs - St Margrets Hall, Twickenham in '82 (the support act was a magician!)

Pink Floyd - Momentary Laps Of Reason Tour (I met and snogged a beautiful woman woman there who I never saw again )

Kino - Picture Tour (The wobbling lighting rig at the Astoria frightened the living crap out of me).
