I think the last 'gig' or 'concert' I went to was Robert Fripp, when he played a solo chartity thing Salisbury cathedral a few years ago.

Next? I have no idea or intention of going to anything at the moment.

I have the DVD but am yet to watch it. My lovely brother bought me it for christmas 2 years ago, along with the soundtrack, but it was just before I moved back to Canada, and the region coding here wouldn't let me watch it :mad: . Listening to the soundtrack just makes me sad, though, because I feel like an idiot for not going to the Melbourne show!! Hopefully he'll tour again...

Well, they sold out real fast in Paris too but I just couldn't resign myself to not seeing him live and since I'm probably gonna move back to SA next year I figured it was now or never so I did the ebay thing :o

No, no! Apparently he is touring South Africa in April for the first time! I went and looked because my mother just told me in a letter that he's touring Australia again sometime next year, but I can't find any details... :( maybe the dates just haven't been released yet? Here's hoping!!

Ohhhh sorry, I meant SA as in South America... :o Most artists will only go to Argentina and Brazil and maybe Chile. But most of them just ignore us altogether... Both The White Stripes and Moby did concerts in Bogotá (Colombia) this year, but it almost never happens. So I'm trying to go to as many concerts as I can while I'm still living in Paris. And I just loooooooooooooove Robbie

Ah, I see! I deal with South Africa in my work and just assumed because we use SA all the time. Oops!

I only went to 2 concerts this year :mad:, but they were both to see Audioslave, and I was in heaven at the time. No plans yet for '06 since the holiday's took so much funding, but hopefully it'll be Audioslave again and Red Hot Chili Peppers, who I have been waiting for forever!

Last consert was a outdoor consert with Green Day this summer.
Don't know who I'll see next. Hopefully Bryan Adams, Bon Jovi, Keane, Robbie Williams ++ will find there way to Norway soon.
