I honestly don't think I could ever attend another concert because nothing can impress me any more. Today was the first time since the concert I've listened to band that wasn't soundgarden and I'm listening to Audioslave.

It's very funny you say that I was talking to a mate last night saying that no-one will ever compare now I have seen the greatest band in the world, I think I was the only dissapointed person to walk out when I saw Incubus & Seether, I honestly don't know if they were not that good or if my standards have now been set so high that I have become a concert 'snob'.

Rarely go to gigs these dayswhich sucks but seen a tonne of punk and hardcore bands.
Some of the best I've seen:

Death by stereo @ Annandale
Rise against @ Annandale
Good Riddance @ Gaelic Club
Mindsnare @ Arty
Toe to Toe & Jungle Fever @ Annandale
AVO & The Dead Walk @ Empire
Propagandhi @ Metro
Gorilla Biscuits @ Annandale
Comeback Kid @ Annandale
Jaws & Extortion @ Newtown
Her Nightmare/PWD/Extortion/50 Lions @ Hardcore 08
Terror @ Manning Bar

All of these stand out in some way. Annandale definitely been a stand out venue for me.
Also seen Strung Out 7 times and miles away 9 times. Pretty much went to any and every local or international punk or hardcore gig I could find about 5-10 yard ago. Seen plenty of acoustic/folk gigs aswell.
Definitly going to be checking out the Agnostic Front/Sick of it all tour aswell as the up coming Trapped Under Ice tour next month. Stoked big time!

If you're picky and pearl jam is your band of choice, that's quite unfortunate. I'd rate Pearl Jam right up there as one of the worst live acts I've ever seen. Saw them in 2010 and Ben Harper was so much better than the headliners.

:gasp: You're off your beanbag son. Admittedly that gig is the worst of the 9 times i've seen them (Eddie was sick), but they're one of the best live bands going around.

Saw Incubus at the Brisbane Convention Centre on Friday night. They were awesome. Smashed out all of the greatest hits and a few songs from their new album. Really enjoyed it. Great atmosphere.

Papa vs Pretty were the support act. First time I have heard them. Not too bad. Didn't mind their stuff. A bit of growing to do yet I think.

Pretty have two more artists on my wish lists that I want to see....

Paul McCartney and Bruce Springsteen.

I could probably stop seeing concerts after seeing these two.
