Somewhere in the middle. Saw this guy perform this iconic theme at a zoo, of all places, at the tail end of a heat wave one Labor Day Weekend. A very cool, unforgettable event.

The first concert (1999/2000?) was at the Double Tree Hotel.

The headliner was Papa Roach with Head P.E., Mudvain (I think -- the singer died on tour), and a little band named Linkin Park. I didn't know any bands except Papa Roach, and Linkin Park hadn't breaken out yet (I did remember seeing their CD promos on TV though, at the time). I remember waiting in line with a couple of my friends (we drove there right after school). Being the only ones waiting in line, Chester walked by with his little bulldog. We commented on how cool his dog was. Then we saw him on stage, and we were like WTF lol

Last concert (2009), I think it was Mars Vaulta or AlexisonFire. Yeah, I can't remember. EDIT: Oh, I did see the Transabarian Orchestra in or around 2013.

I really liked Atreyu!
'A Song for the Optomists' is prolly my favorite track. Their next commercial break album was pretty good too, but I didn't pay too much attention to them. I did see them once with The Used. Pretty cool show, indeed.

Aside from being in choir concers, none.

I don't do crowds.

First: Electric Light Orchestra

Last: Last arena concert was KISS

Last concert: I watched Kenny Rankin play in a park. Underrated guy. Fantastic voice and guitar player. When you see him live you realize how good he was.

First: Metallica
Last: Corrosion of Conformity

Gotta drive a lot farther to get to the shows, but the old 90s metal scene still kicking hard.
