The Sheer - Fenix (Sittard)

Saw them twice last year but not this year. Awesome live band! Bart can make a half-full small hall feel like a packed Wembley stadium the way he's on stage! ^_^

Absolutely. I saw them for the first time in 2005, and now a few weeks ago. And I thought they even sounded better last time, they've really grown as a band. The best Dutch band at the moment.

This is more like rating sets, than full shows

1. Aerosmith Calgary; Their set was simply unbelievable. 10/10

2. Red Hot Chili Peppers Calgary; phenomenal show 10/10

3. Johnny Winter @ The Calgary Beltline Blues Festival 9.5/10

4. The Black Crowes Calgary; awesome performance, energetic, and musically fantastic 9.5/10

5. Guns N' Roses Calgary; a great set 9/10

6. System of a Down Calgary; intense, great performance 9/10

7. Rob Zombie; heavy as fuck show, was in the pit 8/10

8. Tool; Good show, 7/10.

9. Mars Volta Calgary, Opening for the RHCP; good performance, but lacking live compared to record, 7/10

10. The Beach Boys; Love's band comes across as far harder to buy than Axl's GN'R. But they still had fun, fun, fun on that stage. 6.5/10

11. Sebastian Bach Calgary, Opening for GN'R; another good performance 6.5/10

12. Motley Crue; used way too many pyrotechnics and shit to mask their slightly above average performance. Still not great at all. 5.5/10

My best gig was probably BigBang(Norwegian band) in Oslo. Maybe one of the best concert I've ever been to.

Iggy & The Stooges was pretty mind blowing too. It's increadible to watch Iggy on stage after

all these years. Even though he's getting old he still got it. Damn, what a show!

Madrugada(aslo norwegian band) delivered a great show too, as usual.

Haven't been to so many gigs this year, last year was better. Sabbath, Crüe and Prest! \m/

No, I didnt see GNR in Spektrum. I think I made my opinion about todays GNR clear ;)

Anyway, and why excactly does BigBang suck? Because they are 3 of norwegian best musicians,

because Øystein is probably the best guitarist in Norway, because they make good music and is probably

the norwegian liveband ever?
