This is going to be a SERIOUSLY long list - tho I'm sure not as long as some others' on here. It will take me some time to compile, but I'll get there...

Matt - Is that it? Somehow I'd think you've seen much more than that.

progrl... so jealous you got to see andy summers in concert. Serioiusly had a sick crush on that man around 1988.

I forgot to list all the classical music I've seen in concnert. I have to say the best was a pianest from the mozart school. It was the setting that made it magical. I large room in a castle with HUGE fires lit in fireplaces on either side of the hall to warm the audience. All lit pretty much by candlelight. It was amazing!

Yeah that was a trip - especially since we were with this bloke who was headbanging and going wild to Andy's sometimes quiet jazzy/laidback riffing. :lol:

Anyway - forgot to add:

- Clannad
- Pat Nebitar
- Projeckt 2 and 6
- Rick Wakeman

Did I mention...

- The Musical Box ('Selling England..' tour marred only by the fact that I was too sick from the rampant pot smoking I had a hard time enjoying anything - except the part where the main culprits of said pot smoking got hauled out!)
