Past Shows

(Almost) All the Concerts I’ve Ever Seen (542 as of 12/12/22)

In 2003 I realized that I was seeing a lot of live music, so I started keeping track of the shows I went to. I am sure I forgot to record at least a few. I also tried to think back to shows I saw before 2003, but I have a genuinely terrible memory. Luckily, I found some concert ticket stubs to help me piece together a partial list. I’m pretty confident that my first show was Maine folk legend David Mallett when I was quite young. To date, I’ve seen Ellis Paul the most (43 times). I saw the most concerts (52) in 2011. Many people have asked, and no, I have not done the math to see what these tickets have cost. I am happy to have made the investment, and I’m confident the number would be outrageous! The very best part, I think, is the company of great friends and the great people I’ve met at these shows.

    I don’t think I saw Mike & Ruthy on your list. Put them on your agenda!

  2. 2/22/05 Social D, Street Dogs: What?! No mention of backstage passes and getting to sit in on an interview with Mike McColgan from the Street Dogs for a kick ass Bowdoin Punk Rock radio show? 😉
    Hey Bree,
    I hope you’re well.
