The Concert Thread

My concerts this year

Maiden in Budapest x2, Bratislava, Trondheim, Stavanger and Helsinki

Avantasia, Oslo
Helloween, Oslo first night

Maiden best, Stavanger probably best or Helsinki. Avantasia and Helloween also great. Avantasia probably slightly better than Helloween

Also plenty of local bands that probably aren't of any interest here

Show coming up - Sabaton in Oslo

My concerts this year were pretty light:

- Dream Theater in March (Chicago)
- Oasis in August (Chicago)
- Symphony X in September (Joliet)
- Bruce Dickinson in September (Chicago)
- Dream Theater in October (Indiana)

and coming up in a few weeks: John Bush in December (St. Charles)

Highlights were definitely Bruce and Oasis. The October DT show was pretty good, too.
 
I went to the same shows @MrKnickerbocker went to, minus Oasis (not my thing, although I’m sure the fights were breathtaking). Quite excited for John Bush singing Anthrax, since I love his voice and never cared for the band’s original singer.

The one-two punch of Symphony X and Bruce was the highlight (they were back-to-back nights). Chemical Wedding is one of my favorite metal albums of all time, so to see Bruce play almost half the record was such a treat. He also snuck an extra song - Starchildren - into the set.

Got Opeth and probably Sabaton coming up in Q1 of 2026. Pumped!
