    Glad to hear it. Like to make someone chuckle, chortle or guffaw at least once a day. A giggle or two is also worthwhile.

    I am obviously quantity over quality.

    I'm trying to figure out which band I've seen the most in my life. I never really liked rock concerts so almost every "big" act I ever saw, it was a one time deal. The only band I can remember seeing multiple times was the Blood Oranges (as has been discussed here before.)

    I did see Duran Duran in the '80s. I never saw The Police.

    I saw The Police when I lived in Danvers.

    Probably Jimmy Buffett for me. Four times, but I only paid for tickets once. The others ended up free. Two of them were box seats at Walnut Creek. Once, Buffett got hold of the t-shirt cannon and I was hit in the . . . umm . . . upper chest area with a t-shirt. Really tacky one, too.

    My FIRST concert ever was Jimmy Buffett. I was a senior in high school and accompanied 3 junior girls. Our parents let us go alone. I was pretty sheltered at that point still. It was, Um, an eye opener.

    The handful I’ve seen most would be Brandi Carlile, Wilco, and the Old 97s. Willie Nelson and Jimmy Buffett in the next tier.

    Shakespeare Plays I've Seen On Stage (not film):

    Romeo & Juliet (multiple)
    12th Night (multiple)
    As You Like It (multiple)
    Hamlet (multiple)
    Macbeth (multiple)
    King Lear
    Cymbelline
    Henry IV, Part 1
    Henry IV, Part 2
    Henry V
    A Midsummer Night's Dream (multiple)
    Julius Caesar (multiple)
    Antony & Cleopatra
    Troilus and Cressida
    The Taming of the Shrew
    The Merchant of Venice
    Richard III
    The Winter's Tale
    The Tempest (multiple)
    Love's Labors Lost (multiple)
    Much Ado About Nothing (multiple)
    Measure for Measure (multiple)

    I have acted in Pericles and Othello without having seen other productions of them on stage. I will defer to the LTE to decide if they count.

    I do not claim that the designation of multiple is comprehensive. I listed multiple if I could immediately remember having seen it more than once.

    I would count them. I get to claim education credit for lectures I deliver.

    I saw “The Dead” on their ‘02 tour in Roanoke and then again in summer ‘03 in Atlanta, and would describe both experiences thusly.

    It's Tuesday eve. Blech.

    We should really rethink this 7 day week thing and drop Tuesday. It can be the Golden Globes of days of the week.
