Just like most, I enjoy making lists. For the shows I've attended, I'll list the bands I saw. If I don't have an opening band listed, it's because I didn't see them. Do I think you care what shows I'm going to, and what shows I've seen? Not really. This is more for me, bookkeeping if you will.

Borgore
MOAR DUBSTEP!!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait until 2013 when this fad ends. The only thing keeping talentless up and coming dubstep artists from filling venues is their obscurity. Borgore sounds kind of metalish, doesn't it? Therefore, I'm going to make a couple bass heavy mixes on my computer, and call myself, "The Dubest Stepiest Heaviest." Then I'll put up posters in local high schools. I'm going to be huge.

Holy Shit: Roger Waters in Portland
Roger Waters performing The Wall
This is a can't miss. I've heard they build a giant wall behind the band throughout the concert, then "tear down the wall," near the end of the show. I can't wait.
Oh yeah, if you were recently born, Roger Waters is the dude from Pink Floyd.
