  This year:
  Foreigner
  Garth Brooks
  Dwight Yoakam/Eric Church
  Counting Crows (awesome) - A band called Twin Forks opened for them, and they are great.
  
  And my wife saw this "Hick Hop" indie band (see Colt Ford) called The Lacs from GA.
  
  I've never been a "concert" person, but after this year, that may soon change.

  Used to go to concerts all the time. The list is long so will just put the best ones down.
  
  Country concert. stopped going when they started charging for seating areas.
  Metallica, seven dust, and Kid rock up in cleveland had back stage passes and 2nd row seats by far the best of all the concerts I have been too.
  Alabama. Went to the concert in dayton hara arena got there three hours early. Set out back with Randy Owen and Jeff Cook just bsing for over an hour.
  Metallica, Megadeath, and another group at riverbend. Four rows from the stage. I think Metallica was either the opening act or the second I know they were not the headliners.
  Hank Jr
  Garth Brooks
  Pink Floyd
  Bruce Springstein

  Also been to too many to name, but best was of Montreal at 9:30 club in 2009.
• Fab4Runner

  

  I have been to Rock on the Range eight times. I have also gone out to Arizona for a similar one called Desert Uprising, and I went to Louisville in October for Louder than Life. Those together include dozens and dozens of bands.
  
  I have also seen Metallica, Linkin Park, Aerosmith, KISS, Poison, OAR, Jason Aldean, Eric Church, Rascal Flatts, The Beach Boys, NSYNC and Billy Joel and Elton John together.
  
  If I had to choose a fave, it would probably be Metallica at Summer Sanitarium, followed closely by Billy and Elton Face to Face.
  
  I still love RotR, though. It's my favorite weekend of the year, every year.

  Who would be the biggest or a big Christian artist? I legit have no clue.
• Automatik

  

  Too many to list, but my first was REM, Monster tour '95.
  
  Best? Probably a tie between Tool, 10,000 Days tour in Cbus. Or AC/DC at The Q. Both were fucking awesome.
  
  I can't even remember the last time I've seen an actual band. For the past few years, only DJs. Checking out Maceo Plex tomorrow.

  Also saw Bad Fish, a Sublime cover band, at House of Blues in Chicago. They were pretty fucking sweet.

  Lol no if you're older than late 20's I wouldn't expect you to know who they are. The EDM scene is pretty new and is definitely a younger crowd.
• thavoice

  EDM? Erectile Dysfunction Masses?

  What the fuck is it?
  
  Edit... google.com. Yeah, screw this crap. If this is the future of music, then cryogenically freeze me right now.
