Full Concert List

I guess I've seen some shows when I was younger, but I never felt I saw a "real" concert.

When I got older I started to feel, well, old. Come to find out seeing some great music is good not only for my mood but passion in music, interest in playing and composing. All said, I am a better person and am MUCH happier after seeing a great show. I feel like I take a big bite out of life seeing a great show. Sharing the experience with my wife is certainly the best.

Here's my complete history of concerts.
