That thread is over a year old. I know we like to use existing threads rather than create new ones where possible but I think dragging up that would be taking it to extremes!

August 04 (I think): Party In The Park (invited by a friend)
July 05: REM (support from Johnothan Rice and Feeder)
August 05: Keane (support from The Breakmakers and Editors)
April 06: Kaiser Chiefs (support from Graham Coxon)
June 06: Keane
June 06: The Eagles (support from Dixie Chicks though we missed them much to my dads disappointment)
October 06: Embrace (support from Delays which was actually why I went)
October 06: Keane (support from Captain)

Future gigs-
December 06: Delays (cannot wait- best christmas party ever)
Possibly- March 07: The Feeling (my friend asked me if I wanted to go with her, though she hasn't got tickets yet)

I'm really making up for lost time now, I love concerts!

Foo Fighters
Garbage

Hanson
Gareth Gates (on the WGZ tour, I was there to support Will!)
Will Young
Zoe Birkett
Girls Aloud
Westlife
Blue

Also went to several Party in the Park's and Christmas in Popworld and saw several acts at each.

I went to those concerts when I was a lot younger so thats why a majority of them are embarrassing!

I am going to see Shayne Ward in February and I cannot wait I would also want to see a few other concerts next year but will have to wait and see if I have the money and if I can get good tickets!
