Who'd You See Live in 2010

Motley Crue

As we all know, New Year's Eve is upon is, and (as proved by the recent polls regarding concert revenue) Rock and Metal fans have been among the most prolific spenders this year with Bon Jovi, Metallica, The Eagles, Roger Waters, Paul McCartney, AC/DC and U2 filling the Top 10 Highest Grossing tours of 2010.

So, thinking of as many as you can (including support bands) who did you see live in 2010? And who do you regret missing most in hindsight.

I'll get it started off

Man Must Die, Machine Head, Bleeding Through, Hatebreed, Stone Sour, Diamond Head, Europe (x2), Devildriver, 36 Crazyfists, Idiom, Eluveitie, Jettblack, Enuff Z' Nuff, Falling Red (x3), New Generation Superstars, Guns 2 Roses, Guns N' Roses (ignoring the rather abridged set in Dublin), Citizen Charlie, Tigertailz, Gama Bomb, Sepultura, Evile, Danko Jones, Fear Factory, Turisas, Delain, Skunk Anansie, Motley Crue, Enforcer, Heaven's Basement, Fear Factory, Anthrax and Soulfly

I regret not seeing Metallica in Belfast

33 live bands in a single year isn't bad at all....Dino would agree....

DrumSteve

Off the top of my head:

(didn't go see many this year)

Rammstein
Pearl Jam
Sting
Pink

I'm pretty suyre there was someone else in there but I can't remember. Was meant to see slayer in leeds in march but they cancelled.

c - 13

Mastodon
Rise Against
Grinspoon
Karnivool
Coldwar
Fear Factory x 3
Parphalia
Katatonia
Face to Face
Dropkick Murphys
Ghost Brigade
Apocalyptica x 2
Arch Enemy
Iron Maiden
Gravedigger
Soulfly
Crippled Black Phoenix
Heidevolk
Pro-Pain
Slayer
Therapy?

Think that's all of them

ThunderApple

I've seen Amorphis, Satyricon, Covenant, Death Angel, Destructions, Tarja, Devind Townsend, My Dying Bride.. oh god... I've been to 3 festivals and I just can't remember the other bands. They were all great but i was so drunk...

Het-Field

I didnt go to too many intimate gigs. For one reason or another i only went to larger scale gigs. All were very entertaining, and were memorable in their own special way !

In 2010 I saw

Gallows
Rage Against The Machine
Sweet Savage
Iron Maiden
Stanko Jones
Guns N Roses
Arcade Fire
Vampire Weekend.

Regret missing Metallica in Belfast. I was particularly busy at the time, and I couldnt afford to lose three days for two gigs. Other then that, I didnt really miss any of the top-class metal action which was held in the 02 or similar venues.

Knifey Spoony

Been a pretty good year for gigs for me. Here's the list:

Glyder
Gallows, Gogol Bordello, Rage Against the Machine
Sirocco, Megadeth
Sweet Savage, Iron Maiden
Chop Suey
Electric Eel Shock
People of the Monolith (x2), Rest
Five Will Die
Shrinebuilder

Would have loved to have seen Mastodon and a gig from High on Fire would have been nice. Also kicking myself that I didn't get to see Mettalica in Belfast, damn summer exams!

dcr22B

Machine Head
Metallica
RATM
Iron Maiden
The Frames (with the missus)

Oral Slang

Hoping to see Pain of Salvation. They're announced for Hellfest, so hoping they'll be announced for a few more fests, as I'm not sure which ones I'm going to yet. Line-ups looking very tempting already though - Judas Priest, Anathema, Opeth, Pain of Salvation, Therion, Black Label Society, Korpiklaani, Firewind amongst others!
Think I'll head over to see Manowar in Birmingham, as I've never managed to catch them live before and also might head over to London to see Kamelot & Evergrey in March.

rainbow kirby

Iron Maiden and Porcupine Tree. Would have loved to have gone to more gigs than that, but was broke for most of the year so that was all I could really justify.

Roll on Rush in May 2011

Do you count bands you seen at festivals?

Yes, if you like, I counted bands at festivals but only counted bands I went out of my way to see at festivals - as opposed to bands you watched one song from while walking in the opposite direction to the bar - but if you saw them play for 15 to 20 minutes anywhere this year I think you should count them (if you can remember!)

haha, I totally missed the point of the thread yesterday & mentioned who I want to see in 2011.

Saw Anathema, Porcupine Tree, Helloween, Stratovarius, Pearl Jam, Kiss, Katatonia & a rake of bands at Graspop. Very small amount of gigs in 2010, hoping 2011 will be better!

Man this thread is a little depressing. Didnt make it to any gigs last year (its last year now). Was supposed to make a few but things got in the way. That'll change this year. Entombed play at the end of this month. Gonna try everything I can to make that. Great band.

Morf

I have Explosions In The Sky, Mogwai and possibly ManOwaR lined up for 2011.

Joe_Dull

Not very many that were Rock & Metal-worthy I'm afraid...

Two Door Cinema Club x2
Foals x2
Crystal Castles
Elton John
Flight of the Conchords
Imogen Heap
Janelle Monáe
Supertramp
Biffy Clyro
...and so on in that vein.

A pretty dry year for metal gigs as far as I was concerned, no sign of Dream Theater (surprise surprise), Korn (in spite of a new album), In Flames or Soilwork. And the feckin' leaving cert kept me from Enter Shikari

120_Minutes

Only went to 3:

Karnivool
