It would also be great if they weren’t on a weekday and didn’t cost at least $150.
There is no professional live entertainment in my area. I did have to Owls in a tree outside my house though.
I didn’t attend any concerts/performances in 2014. I offered to take my wife to the symphony but she said she would rather wait until we could go to one in Europe.
None.
I’m so cheap I downloaded a bunch of songs from YouTube I converted to .mp3 and burned to CD for use in my car. I got to listen to some artists who are now dead and others where the group has broken up.
Seriously, I wouldn’t waste my time or my money trying to listen to anyone live, not when I can hear the studio version over and over again at my own convenience with a front row seat whenever I wanted.
It sounds like you would not go to a Black Sabbath concert even if it was at 12:00 on a Saturday.
I like this band a lot.

Let’s see, Young Dubliners twice. Nils Lofrgen (2 days after the Dubs), Social Distortion (2 days after Nils, that was a good week). Ian Anderson. Dr John. The Straits. Good year, though I decided Phoenix has gotten too far away, so there will be less of those and they’ll include a hotel.
And for 2015 Uriah Heep and Zappa Plays Zappa are already on my ticket nail.
I took my 8 year-old daughter to the local symphony for Dvorak’s Symphony #9.
She fell asleep. But, it was good.

Musikfest in Bethlehem PA - saw a lot of acts, my fave was “Hot Club of Philadelphia”, a Django Reinhart tribute band.
King Crimson - played crowd favorites from almost all their early albums, plus some.
That’s it really. Prices are too high for my blood.
Million Dollar Quartet at the Cowen Center in Tyler. Raised a toast to the four musicians on 12/4/2014 to celebrate the 58th anniversary of that incredible night. The musical is the quickest 90 minutes I've ever experienced.
