XXV Bands I have seen live

[barondave]

I dunno if this is spreading a meme or merely bragging, but here are 25 bands/artists I have seen live. Several lists have been posted so I'm not going to take one and start with overlap. Some of these have been at cons and festivals, but all were concerts (vs. music circles). I don't go to many concerts, but they add up over the years and I had to pick and choose to get down to 25. In semi-chrolological order:

Pete Seeger (many times)
Up With People (who opened for Pete Seeger!)
PDQ Bach
How To Change A Flat Tire
Gentle Giant
Renaissance
Commander Cody and his Lost Planet Airmen
Steeleye Span
Albany Free Traders &
Boiled In Lead

The Roches *
Dave Van Ronk *
Steve Goodman
The Greatful Dead (but only once)
Weird Al Yankovic
Maslow's Hierarchies (still my favorite band name)
Klezmerim (I think that was the name)
Tonic Sol-Fa (several times, at the Fair)
Ch'Uwa Yacu Bolivia (among others)
The Flash Girls &

Riverfolk
Rev. Billy C. Wirtz *
Cats Laughing &
The Nick Atoms &
The Great Luke Ski &

* denotes an interview with the performer
& means that one or more members of the band have appeared in Shockwave skits

(Sorry Shoebox, I ran out of slots before I got to Worm Quartet)
