Bands/Artists You’ve Seen More Than Once
Years ago, I worked with a guy who was a hardcore Deadhead. He saw them some ridiculous number like 67 times. I just want to know whose music you liked well enough to see him/her/them at least twice.

Here are mine:

Los Lobos;
Steve Earle;
Emmylou Harris;
Samantha Fish;
Michael Martin Murphey;
Doyle Bramhall II;
JD McPherson;
Rolling Stones
ZZ Top

In my younger days, as a Parrot Head, I took pride in making the annual pilgrimage to at least one Jimmy Buffett concert a year and saw him in concert for 13 consecutive years before missing a couple years, and then again, a couple shows after that.

I've seen some local or regional bands in concert more than once as well.

I've seen the Black Crowes over 20 times.

Plenty of other bands I've seen numerous times, as well. Allman Bros, Gov't Mule, DBT, Phish, Better than Ezra, Dawes, Ryan Adams, ZBB, Foy Vance, Wilco, Sturgill Simpson, etc.

I have good friends who see Phish at least 5x a year.

Björk: 4 times

Saint Etienne: 3 times

Morcheeba: 2 times

The last Björk concert I saw twice. It was her Biophilia tour back in 2013. It was at the Richmond Craneway Pavilion, which is in an old converted Ford factory building on the edge of San Francisco Bay. The setup was pretty intimate, with the stage only about 15 feet away from the entire audience. It faced the giant windows that overlook the bay.

The next night, I just rode my bike to the Craneway and hung out in front of the windows. So, basically I was only 30 feet away from the stage with plate glass windows between me and the concert. It was in essence a free concert.

You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.
