Concert List

I mentioned earlier that I can count on one hand the concerts I've been to.  Here's the list, FYI:

• Bangles & Mr. Mister (Nebraska State Fair, 1986)
• GWAR (Mississippi Nights, 1996)
• Sheryl Crow (Fabulous Fox, 1997)
• Fast Ball, Goo Goo Dolls, Sugar Ray (Riverport Amphitheatre, 1999)
• Train, Matchbox 20 (Riverport Amphitheatre, 2001 -- their first concert, post 9/11).
• Diana Krall & Chris Botti (Fabulous Fox, 2007)
• k.d. lang (Peabody, 2018)

I've made it on to two hands now -- woohoo!

Why has Leonard gone to so few concerts?  See any of the many posts regarding anxiety, panic attacks, depression, mental health, mental illness, and/or not liking people or crowds or crowds of people.  Leonard was fairly wee at that very first concert (8 years old) and nearly got trampled, so maybe that influenced everything else down the road?

As it stands, it would have to be someone I really like to get me to a giant stadium concert.  I adore P!nk, and she was just in town, but I did not go.  It never strikes me as something that I "can" do; like, I never even entertain the possibility.

3 different times in my life I've been offered Melissa Etheridge tickets (and I would have made an exception for her!), and all three times, I had rehearsal.
