    Is it cheating if I use a festival?

    Download 2013 had 3 iconic metal bands headlining. I don't listen to much metal these days but Iron Maiden and Rammstein were very memorable.

    Iron Maiden



    Rammstein



    Slipknot

    Rage against the machine at TITP.

    Muse at Wembley.

    Frightened Rabbit at the Barras.

    Green Day at Milton Keynes.

    Radiohead at Edinburgh fringe.

    RHCP at Earls Court.

    They're all difficult to separate. Lost count of the amount of gigs I've been to but those stand out the most.

    Not a massive gig head but Rage Against the Machine Oxegen 08 hands down, never thought I'd get to see my favourite band live!

    Either Foo Fighter at Murrayfield. Or The Heavy at the Oran Mor a few years back - never experienced atmospheres like that.

    Steel Panther are always solid and great for a gig.

    Muse and Rammstein to go and see to tick off the bucket list. Always been out the country when they've toured.

    There's been quite a few, but here's some from the top of my head but can't remember the exact year of many.

    St. Paul & the Broken Bones - Oosterpoort Groningen 2016?
    the B-52's Paradiso, Amsterdam 2008
    Megadeth Ijselhallen, Zwolle 1991
    Peter Pan Speedrock Café de Lijst Hoogeveen 201?
    Dark Angel, de Box Hoogeveen 1991
    New Bomb Turks Vera Groningen 199?
    The Hanson Brothers Vera, Groningen 20??
    Slapshot Bolwerk, Sneek 199?
    D.R.I. - Kiehool, Bergum 199?
    Dandruff! De Box, Hoogeveen 199?
    Death, Oosterpoort, Groningen
    + a few Motorhead shows over the years

    There's tons more, but my brain isn't working on full capacity right now.

    Tom Waits at the Playhouse in 2008. He is my musical hero and given he only tours the UK every 20 years or so it was pretty rare.

    Second to that probably Springsteen at the Stadium of Light as part of his wrecking ball tour. Seen him a few times and always different.

    Kasabian at Secc in 2009 (* venue but * amazing gig, whole place jumping from start to finish.)

    Oasis Murrayfield 2009, their last gig in Scotland before they split, great experience apart from all the neds fighting.

    Black Keys Secc 2013, amazing music live by only 2 guys with occasionally a back up guitarist.

    Stereophonics, seen them about 5 times, recently in February at the Hydro was the best yet, quality live.
