Band/artist you've seen the most

[Poyetry In Motion]

Come to think of it, I've also seen van Dyk in three different countries, here, UK (Antrim) and the Netherlands (Utrecht)

Soulwax are someone I intend to see, never had the opportunity to yet - they always play here at awkward times.

He's bloody good in Diagnosis Murder too

 

[Meade's Ball]

Public Enemy about 12 times, starting with those Brighton Centre hip-hop affairs with the likes of Eric B & Rakim, Run DMC and LL Cool J and the halcyon days of Def Jam rap. I include one appearance by Flavour Flav at the Brixton Academy Nelson Mandela day the day before the giant Wembley pop extravaganza.
The best one was at Docklands Arena when they kicked off with Welcome To the Terrordome and the crowd went mental.

I used to work at a very famous conference/concert venue and have seen more concerts than I can remember - I've been fortunate enough to see Feeder,UB40, Faithless, The Manics, Weller, The Prodigy BUT i've also been unfortunate enough to witness Westlife ( 3 times for cryin out loud! ), Will Young, Daniel O Donnell and ..... the X Factor roadshow !

The Fall. Seen them dozens of times. Rarely the same line-up, never ever seen them play a song off any album they ever made.

Ah Public Enemy, back in the day my mate and I got mugged at knife point in the queue outside Brixton Acadamy for our tickets to their Nations of Millions tour show, memories..... Seen them in Perth twice since.

 

[rcf0712]

As you can see I'm loving this thread, so here's mine (excluding mate's unsigned pub bands);
Le Mat (Southend based gothy oddities from mid 80's) - 21
The Cure - 16 (1982 to 2008)
Jebediah -12 (Perth based Aussie indie pop legends, Bob Evans fronts them)
Oasis - 11 (all in 1994 apart from once out here at a festival a few years ago)
Eat & Ghost Dance - 7 each

 

[rcf0712]

oops got over excited and posted twice, sorry folks

For me it is a tie with the Jam and the Smirks at 17 each. I would love it if either reformed and allowed me to break the deadlock. I guess I have seen Paul Weller a few times as well, but for that definitely doesn't count.

After that, I'd guess Energy Orchard and the Barenaked Ladies about 10 times each.
