well I've only been to three, SO.

#1 - our lady peace w/ greenwheel and ash - july 14th, 2002. my first [and only, so far] olp concert, and i was lucky enough to meet them, so yay.

#2 [tie] - Greenwheel w/ socialburn - september 18th, 2002. it was their first day without doug, so there was about a two-hour delay. SUCH a great show. it was in a small venue, and i was up against the stage, so that was nice. ryan's so intense.. then they did about 4 songs acoustic. it was great. the bass player for Socialburn kept staring at me too. creepy.
-Blindside w/ novocaine and the kick, sometime in October 2002. novocaine was good, so was the kick. they kind of scared me though. blindside was awesome. I love me some Swedes.

1) Great Big Sea with Kathleen Edwards, Major's Hill Park, Ottawa, 10 May 2002.
2) OLP etc, Hartford, 20 October 2002.
3) Rockwell Church, 23 November 2002 (anyone who covers Complicated automatically makes the top 3).

Damn, I've been to about 30 concerts just in the last 10 months and it was hard to come up with three.

GAH! I forgot Great Big Sea!! I saw them on New Years Eve a few years ago in Niagara Falls and they were amazing and then again in Toronto last September .. they definitely belong in my top 3 concerts :)

I recently realized that my last four GBS shows have bored the living daylights out of me. But the first four r0x0r3d (god help my attempt at l337)

I don't think i could chose 3 after my best they are all very close

1) OLP-Toledo 5-22-01... the smallest place olp played on the sm tour, my first concert and a awesome setlist with a better preformance.

2) Maybe Greenhweel this october, they were absolutely amazing they got to headline at the hard hat where i saw them with olp in july and their was probably 200 people their and the boys put on the show of their lives(playing ever song from Soma holiday and Flood, Everything to lose, and their tool cover of 46 and 2) and then just came out into the crowd afterwards to hang out got a setlist and gutair pick signed, a very cool night

3) either peter "fuckin" yorn(he is truely incredible) 5-31-01 or the very next day at the 89x birthday bash(olp,dashboard, sloan, and doves), and maybe incubus(one sweet ass show) in september


i am hoping graham colton in january, coldplay on march 3, or ben kweller on march 8 will be up there after those shows too.

If you see them eight times in eight months, right after a new album, it most definitely can be. Then again, I know someone who followed basically their entire Canadian tour.

OK, just realized that I'm gonna change my number three. While that Oasis concert was amazing, cos it was my first concert ever, it's not number three. I'm an idiot, and I can't BELIEVE I forgot the one I'm changing it to. *hits self*

3. Stroke 9, Moby, Foo Fighters, Oasis, and Beck (Y100 FEASTival) - First Union Center, Philadelphia, PA - December 3, 1999:
Stroke 9 was even good. Hah. But, I went for Oasis and Beck. Ended up loving Moby and the Foo Fighters (well, I liked both to begin with anyway, but still). Anyway, this was the first EVER Oasis concert with the two newest band members, Andy and Gem (possibly the equivalent of going to the first OLP show with Steve and Mike E., although the media made a bigger deal out of this... every important British music magazine was represented at this show... it was on the covers of their two biggest ones the next week... fans flew in from all over the world, in fact, I think there were more British people in the arena than Americans... it was a HUGE deal, and as an Oasis fan, being there was absolutely incredible). And, let me tell you, Beck knows how to put on a show. My god. I was a fan before that show, but my GOD did he impress me. Anyone here know his song "Debra"? With the insane high notes? Yeah, live, that song is breathtaking.

Also, I didn't do any repeat bands on mine. Cos all three would've been OLP. Hah. Best. Live. Band. Ever. *sigh*

of course, my school is retarded and instead of giving students cheap concerts, they had a $30 counting crows concert this year.
