Actually I take back my earlier post. Both Lucky Boys Cofusion and Plain White Ts were less regrettable than seeing The National.

The National - 9 times Kanye - 7 times (Plus a dj set) Bloc Party - 7 times Danny Brown - 7 Times Kendrick Lamar - 7 Times Julien Baker - 6 Times Father John Misty - 5 Times Passion Pit - 5 Times Vince Staples - 5 Times LCD Soundsystem - 5 Times Radiohead - 4 Times Chance - 4 Times The Weeknd - 4 Times The Drums - 4 Times The xx - 4 Times Paul McCartney - 3 Times Foals - 3 Times Crystal Castles - 3 Times The Cure - 3 Times Interpol - 3 Times I think that's it for 3+. I feel like RtJ is 3 but I can only remember 2. 90% of those are fest sets. What was the Kanye DJ set like? Pretty dope. It was kind of a surprise after the Famous music video viewing in LA and the crowd was awesome. Plus it was great to have him play Pt. II and have Desiigner there going crazy. |

Y’all have good memories for this shit. The Smoking Popes or The Hold Steady are most for me? I have no idea how many though, 8 each? My memory is for shit. My spreadsheet, on the other hand, is in good shape. You may notice many on this board referring to the TK or Trapper Keeper - it's an informal reference for a list of bands seen live in concert. Many of us on the board have a spreadsheet (or an actual handwritten log). |

I have a phone note with all of mine and the emotional labor of switching to a website sounds exhausting

I have a phone note with all of mine and the emotional labor of switching to a website sounds exhausting I sat down and made a day out of this around 2013 sometime. It was a pain, but it was also kind of a fun trip down memory lane. I'm also a big statistic/data nerd so I really enjoy having all that info in one place. |

Not including local acts I've seen Ted Leo and the Mountain Goats probably 25ish times
I've seen Wilco and Titus Andronicus 15-20 times
Seems like alot but I started seeing all of those acts when I was 14-15 and I still see all of them live and they all play Chicago 3-5x a year (or new york when I lived there)

I don't believe I've seen any band 10+ times. The National, Paramore, Muse, and Metric are all probably the closest? Wilco, too.
Never seen Phish nor do I plan to.

I'm not opposed to seeing Phish, but I'm almost certainly not going to pay to see Phish.

$7 + indoors would be the perfect Phish storm.
A Phishnado, if you will.

i saw phish once at acl '10 and they played 2 hours which was great since i didn't fall asleep, because i saw grateful dead in '85 and they played for 3 1/2 hours and i fell asleep during the drum solo.
maybe this should turn into a thread of bands you've fallen asleep to?

I don't track but for my bigger bands they have all the shows listed on their websites so periodically I'll go through and do a count.

I fell asleep to the Feelies at P4k last year. I don't know if that has ever happened anywhere else.

I passed out at Mike Gordon Band if that counts.
Also I took maybe the best nap I've ever nap during Explosions in the Sky at Lolla

I almost fell asleep on the bench during Beach House at P4K 2012. It would have been totally acceptable because I'm pretty sure they almost fell asleep as well. |

Oh and I legit took a power nap during Foster the People at Lolla 2014. That was the last year I snuck vodka in.
