Oh...now I see only 3. I have been to very few concerts in my life.

Blues Traveler opened for the Pat Magee Band and they were both very good.

Garth Brooks put on one helluva show in his day.

Shania Twain was one incredible bundle of energy too. And VERY VERY VERY easy on the eyes too.

Favorite bands of all time- Rush, The Replacements, REM and U2, but only their old stuff)

What I listen to now- I typically only listen to music while running so Kelly Clarkson, Train, U2, Rush, The Who, Shania Twain, Liz Phair.

Concerts- I have to really, really like a band to go to a concert, I just dont enjoy screaming crowds unless I am heavily medicated, preferrably on hallucinogenics. But I am going to see Train next week. Best I have ever seen was the Replacements. Rush was also very good.

Favorite band of all time-
Jamiroquai... They're a "one-hit wonder" here, but they're huge everywhere else in the world.

There are so many bands and artists that I like, but based on a total body of work, my other 2 favorites would probably be

Radiohead and Eminem.

Ridiucle me all you want for the Eminem choice, but this guy lyrically is so talented he deserves to be there... Besides, no offense y'all, but if you're over 30, I can't take your criticism seriously anyway. It would be just like me saying that I don't care for the Beatles or Zepplin or Steppenwolf...er...nevermind lol. It's just a different era so it's tough to undertsand our differing tastes. Sorry meaningless rant.

Favorite songs... hmmm...
These constantly change, but off the top of my head...
"Diary"- Alicia Keys
"#41"- Dave Matthews Band
"Clocks"- Coldplay
"It was a good day"- Ice Cube

I saw twista at the KY state fair last year w/ Nappy roots, great f-in FREE concert!!

Metallica several times, The best live show ever!!!

Bush, at the palace theatre, only 3000 people, they sounded incredible!

I'll toss in Tom Petty @ louisville Gardens, cause that was an awesome show too.

No way in hell I can narrow down to songs, but I'll toss out 3 from the whole spectrum..

In Da Club - 50 cent
Fade to black - Metallica
Rocketman - Elton John

Gander 06-25-2006 07:40 AM

I saw Bush back in the late 90's at Spac and they were very good.
Just saw the band Train at the Palace Theater and they were one of the best I have ever seen. The other concert which is at the top of my list was the Replacements in 89, also at the Palace, what a great venue to see a band. I saw Rush 3 summers ago at Spac and they were amazing, also saw them in the mid 80's.

I forgot to say who originally sung my three favorite songs ---

"Someone In A Tree" ... James Dybas, Gedde Watanabe, Mark Hsu Syers, and Mako.
"Finishing The Hat" ... Mandy Patinkin
"Chrysanthemum Tea" ... Alvin Ing

All were composed by Stephen Sondheim.

So ... let's have a group sing ... everybody is welcome to join in to my favorite, "Someone In A Tree." Decide among yourselves who'll sing the parts of the Old Man, The Reciter, The Boy, and The Warrior. OK ... are you ready? A-one ... and a-two ... and a- ...

Old Man: "Pardon me, I was there"
Reciter: "You were where?"
Old Man: "At the treaty house"
Reciter: "At the treaty house?"
Old Man: "There was a tree ... "
Reciter: "Which was where?"
Old Man: "Very near"
Reciter: "Over here?"
Old Man: "Maybe over there, but there were trees then, everywhere. May I show you?"
Reciter: "If you please"
Old Man: "There were trees then, everywhere"
Reciter: "But you were there"
Old Man: "And I was there! Let me show you"
Reciter: "If you please"
Old Man: "I was younger then ... I was good at climbing trees ... I was younger then ... I saw everything ... I was hidden all the time ... it was easier to climb ... I was younger then ... I saw everything ... where they came and where they went ... I was part of the event ... I was someone in a tree ... I was younger then!"
Boy: "Tell him what I see!"
Old Man: "I am in a tree ... I am ten .. I am in a tree"
Boy: "I was younger then"
Old Man: "In between the eaves I can see ... tell me what I see ... I was only ten"
Boy: "I see men and matting ... some are old, some chatting"
Old Man: "If it happened I was there"
Old Man & Boy: "I saw/see everything!"
Old Man: "I was someone in a tree"
Boy: "Tell him what I see!"
Old Man: "Some of them have gold on their coats"
Boy: "One of them has gold ... he was younger then"
Old Man: "Someone crawls around passing notes"
Boy: "Someone very old"
Old Man: "He was only ten"
Boy: "And there's someone in a tree"
Old Man: "Or the day is incomplete"
Old Man & Boy: "Without someone in a tree ... nothing happened here"
Old Man: "I am hiding in a tree"
Boy: "I'm a fragment of the day"
Old Man & Boy: "If I weren't, who's to say ... things would happen here the way ... that they happened here?"
Old Man: "I was there then"
Boy: "I am here still ... it's the fragment, not the day"
Old Man: "It's the pebble, not the stream"
Old Man & Boy: "It's the ripple, not the sea ... not the building, but the beam ... not the garden, but the stone ... not the treaty house ... someone in a tree"

Very good ... we'll stop here and pick up the rest ... including the Warrior part ... later. Good work!
