What are some of your favorite concerts that you have attended?

One of my favorite concerts was seeing Tina Turner with Cyndi Lauper as the opening act.

Another one was The Isley Brothers and Gladys Knight. Kelly Price sang backup for both of them.

I remember there already was a thread like this, but that was a long time ago. Anyway, I’ve been to a few concerts that were fantastic, but if i had to pick one I’d go with the first time I saw Godspeed You! Black Emperor live.

Diamonds World Tour from Rihanna will remain the best until the end of time.

Also loved The Formation Tour – went to three different dates of that tour.

I would say the Sugar Water Festival Tour that had Floetry, Queen Latifah, Jill Scott, and Erykah Badu. The first three were great, but Erykah – please do not get me started on her. I will never see her again. They should have had Macy Gray on this tour in place of Erykah Badu.

I love blues music and I saw B.B.King, Dr. John and Shemekia Copeland and Koko Taylor was a surprise guest. This was a fantastic concert. I also got a chance to meet Koko afterwards and she was very nice.

I will also add Etta James was amazing each time I saw her in concert. The last time I saw she talked about the White House reaching out to Beyonce to sing At Last. Etta did not hold back.

This topic made me so sad OMG. I miss seeing live shows so much :

ODESZA — A Moment Apart tour
Passion Pit — Gossamer tour
Gorillaz — Escape to Plastic Beach tour
Brockhampton — I’ll Be There tour
The 1975 — A Brief Inquiry into Online Relationships tour
Harry Styles — self-titled album tour
Panic! At the Disco — Pray for the Wicked tour
The Killers — Wonderful, Wonderful tour
Arkells — Morning Report tour
Arctic Monkeys — AM tour

I don’t see many big pop acts unless they’re local festival headliners simply because I can’t afford to spend like $200 for nosebleeds in a stadium where the artist is a speck on a jumbotron. Just gonna have to answer to my future children/nieces/nephews as to why I missed out.

I agree with you because I just can’t rationalize spending hundreds of dollars on concert tickets when I can get plane tickets for the same price.

I will have to add that Stevie Wonder was amazing in concert.

Some of the concerts I remember most fondly would be:

* Janelle Monáe opening for Of Montreal back in like 2010 (my first real concert)
* Living Colour — 25th anniversary of Vivid (2013; they sounded exactly like the record, still)
* HAIM with opening act Lizzo (2018)
* Lily Allen with Zoe Kravitz’s band as the opening act (2015)
* Los Auténticos Decadentes (2015; Argentinean band; easily the most fun I’ve ever had at a concert)
* Mon Laferte (2019; amazing live voice)
* Patti Labelle at the Kennedy Center (2010 or 2011; it was free, too!)
* La Ley (2014)
* The Smashing Pumpkins (2018; took a train up to Baltimore to see them, but they played a 3-hour set and almost all their most famous songs, so it was worth it)
* Garbage (2015; 20th anniversary of their first album)
* Café Tacuba (I’ve seen them three times so far and I intend to see them again next time they tour over here)
