Hearing my friends complain about not getting Beyonce tickets made me want to ask--are you seeing any concerts this year? I have tickets for Depeche Mode and Taylor Swift, but that's it so far.

Lucky you to score Taylor Swift tickets! That whole thing seemed crazy!
I don't usually see a lot of concerts, but am going to see the B-52s in Las Vegas in May.

We have Duran Duran tickets at Red Rocks in late August. My 8-year-old-self would be so impressed.

We prefer smaller venues and rarely attend stadium or arena sized concerts. Last week we saw Bayside and next week we’re seeing Wonder Years - both alt-rock-type bands that we like. We saw AFI last month. I’m sure there will be more groups coming through this year that we’ll see.

Reba! Told my husband in passing it was a bucket list item for me to see her sing Fancy in person and he got me tickets. I think he said it was her last concert? Its in NY in April.

We saw the Killers in Nashville in September. Oh and Brad Paisley there too because he was the headliner at the Grand Ole Opry.
We’re heading to FL next weekend to see Willie Nelson. He’s on my bucket list. Can you believe he’s going to be 90 in April?!?!

My dd's (ages 24 and 19) and I saw Thomas Rhett here last Sunday ... so great! We've seen him before and he never disappoints!  No one else that I'm willing to dish out the big money for is coming so far ... I am seeing Cirque du Soleil in October though! |

I just went to one last night! I saw Bad Religion and Social Distortion, it was an arena show which is not my favourite for these types of bands, I much prefer smaller venues, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. I don't have any others planned yet but I'm sure I'll see more shows this year.

Do they put on a good show? I love the Barenaked Ladies too and they put on a great show My DH bought tickets for my DD to see Fall Out Boy. We were supposed to see them and several others in 2021 but FOB got Covid so we got our tickets refunded. |

I would love to see the B-52s but I think they came through here last year--likewise The Shins. I saw Calexico in October and I'd go see them again in a heartbeat. I'd also see Neko Case again. I'd like to see Nick Cave and The Decemberists. So nothing on the horizon, but I'm keeping my eyeballs peeled.

We are seeing Journey in April, Kane Brown in May and Pink in Oct. we tried for Taylor Swift tix but weren’t so lucky, DD and I have have seen her 3 times. I really wanted to see George Strait with Chris Stapleton but we have to put extra spending on hold since DH got laid off. Those upcoming concerts we’ve had the tickets for months. Pink is a bucket list for me. I would love to see Duran Duran, one of my teenage favorites.

Our most exciting concert was Harry Styles in L.A. with my three girls in January! It was so fun to make my girls dreams come true! Such a great concert!
We technically saw Post Malone tonight at the NBA All-Star Game, but I felt old and didn’t even know who the guys that sang at half-time were.
We also have Taylor Swift tickets to see her in Las Vegas in March and in July in Denver.
My hubby and I are going to Vegas to see Ed Sheeran in September and that is a total bucket list one for me!

I don’t have much lined up yet for summer, but definitely plan to make it to a few. I may travel to go see OAR as it’s been a few years.
But my kids are taking me to see Vance Joy in March. So yay-got one concert to look forward to.

I just bought tickets for Les Claypool's Flying Frog Brigade. I love him with Sean Lennon in the Claypool Lennon Delirium and Sean is the guitarist for the show. They're doing the whole Pink Floyd "Animals" album and I've also become a new huge Pink Floyd fan. Should be fun

We are taking our son to his first concert for his 18th birthday in April. Lee Brice is coming to town in April and we are all big country music fans so perfect timing.

Does it count if I bought tickets this year? Got tickets to see P!nk next February. Yes, a year from now. Saw Billy Joel just before Christmas and he was great.

Not really 'live' concert, but we have tickets to ABBA Voyage in London next month. Everyone we know who has seen it says it is an amazing show, and I am a fan from way back in the 70s, so really looking forward to it. Most years, we try to get tickets to one of the concerts at the Summer Tollwood festival here, but I haven't seen much about the line up for this year yet, and I imagine tickets will be in short supply after 3 years break. |

We're seeing John Legend at the Royal Albert Hall in London in April which I'm really looking forward to, and then seeing Elton John in his never ending Final Tour  This will be the 3rd final tour concert of his we'll have seen |

Last year was a great year for me, one week I took in 3 shows! ( Norah Jones, Third Eye Blind, and Chris Isaak with Lyle Lovett)
The highlight was the band The War On Drugs at Red Rocks.
So far coming up this year I’ve got Muse in April, Coldplay, and one of my favorites , The National.

Well darn it! Now I want Duran Duran tickets. Just looked and there are still some left in Detroit for September. Once Jeremy wakes I'll ask him if he minds going.

I’m seeing Dinosaur Jr this coming Sunday. They are an alternative rock band more known in the 90’s. That’s all I have. I blew my concert budget by seeing Harry Styles four times in the past 12 months. No regrets though. He’s so worth it.

We're seeing Dylan Leblanc on Friday. The following week we have Muse. Mid-March is New Order and The Zombies.
Also the presale for Depeche Mode starts tomorrow, so we'll get tix for that as well.
