Saw Queensryche a couple of years ago perform their entire Operation: Mindcrime album, and some more hits, that was an awesome show although at the time me and my friends were probably the youngest in the crowd, most of the people who went were in their 30's and 40's but still awesome show.
Saw last February Sonata Arctica which again was a high intensity night, lots of support for the band who put on an excellent live show, definitely recommend to check them out should you ever get the chance, also got some of their autographs after the show which still have on a cd sleeve from their album Silence.
Then in March saw Kreator and Napalm Death which again was a wicked show, Kreator enjoyed a bit more who really were flawless, one of the great thrash legends. Got an autograph and pic with Millie their lead singer/guitarist too, which capped off the nite.
And finally the next nite Saw Opeth, Dark Tranquality, and Devil Driver which was a decent show, way too many emos/goths were at the show though and the sound quality was subpar, plus when the moshing started you knew these kids were not metal listeners, serious lack of respect for others with just the intention of injuring others, <_< which is so not the way you do things at a metal show. Overall great show, Dark Tranquality was awesome, as was Opeth, Devil Driver didn't like but whatever.
Hope to see though at some point Iron Maiden, which is one of my dreams as they are my favourite band and Dream Theater too my 2nd favourite band, but they hardly tour here at all which is a bummer, so may have to fly out to see them, Megadeth and Kamelot also hope to see at some point too.
Also some more obsecure bands at some point like Pain Of Salvation, Edguy, Blind Guardian, Strapping Young Lad would be cool too.
