As for Alanis.... i got dragged to that concert, and it was a great show I guess thats why its on my list!!!

Lynniebits · 04-26-2006

It was a good show, you are right. I dunno about best concert ever, but Johnny Cash performed at my High School my sister's senior year...it was cool, but then he had heart problems...that wasn't so cool.

I'll limit my favorite concerts to the Omaha/CB ones I've attended.

Tour/Festivals:
EdgeFest
RockFest
Warped Tour (can anyone intelligently explain to my why this tour doesn't come here every year?)

Bands that have been great to see in Omaha/CB:
The Suicide Machines @ that sh*thole club on Leavenworth
The Urge, location doesn't matter, EVERY show was great
2 Skinnee J's (met my wife @ a J's show), again location didn't matter

One of my favorite shows was when Rancid came to town a few years ago (I wanna say '95) and the promoters moved it from the Ranch Bowl to Lincoln's Royal Grove before re-moving it to the seated music hall portion of the Civic...the audience almost rioted...I LOVED it...

Now that the Ranch Bowl has died (from what I've heard, never to be revived either), the scene has come to an almost screeching halt. Sokol is doing it's best to fill the gap, but, IMO, it's not working (the punk & ska acts just don't route through here anymore, it's all Indie/Emo/Pop type music (not a bash against that type of music, just not my thing)). The mid-level bands do not come here, and I cannot fathom why, instead they're in Des Moines, Minneapolis, KC/Lawrence, and/or Denver. Up-and-coming-type acts make their requisite stops, and occasionally a big name will rape their fans' wallets @ Qwest, but when the Ranch Bowl existed it seemed there was a great show every 2 to 3 weeks. Sad, sad, sad.

A list of bands/festivals I'd love to see in this area:
Warped Tour
Ska Is Dead Tour
Less Than Jake
Rancid
Flogging Molly
Dropkick Murphys
NOFX
Reel Big Fish
Goldfinger
The Slackers
Big D & The Kids Table

In general, just more punk & ska acts would be great...

jugHEAD · 04-26-2006

Carl I have to agree with you about the urge! They are a great show!
I saw them open up for 311 many times. Once they opened before nodoubt and 311. Sandstone was rockin during there set, and when no doubt got on stage everyone sat and stood still. Stefani actually had to beg people to get up and do something. The urge is about the only band I would have put up against 311 in a live show. The best ever with those 2 was at the Hurricane in lincoln! THe floor was rocking so hard that me a a couple of guys had to acutally hold the speakers up

Oh man, I TOTALLY forgot about The Hurricane! I saw my all-time heroes (Bosstones) there MANY moons ago, I wanna say '93 or '94.

I saw that The Urge/No Doubt/311 show, only @ the Civic-Convention Center stop of that tour...Gwen kept getting heckled to "show yer t*ts!"...

The best concert I have ever been to was in North Dakota. We camped all weekend and they like 30 bands. I would have to say the best performance was by Quiet Riot (yes, I know they didn’t show up to Z-Bash but they were great). It was full of 80’s bands and some local bands.

powwow · 04-26-2006

KISS back before unmasking,and i would go see them again and again . well the bands i would DIE to see i would have to be dead . cause all the bands i would like to see , have of them are dead, or ar not together anymore.
