I actually went to the Kanye Drake Free Hoover Concert, it was my first concert, and my god was it amazing. To see Ye perform all his classic songs one after another is something I thought I'd never have the chance to experience (hopefully he does another tour so you all can experience seeing him too).

[@onlysmallbites]

Ayyy, nice congrats it was suuuch a good show! But with all the Ye talk, I sometimes wonder what drake felt about it, lol.

[@CAYCAYNULLIAN]

Drake was underused in the concert but it’s alright because Kanye did his work

[@zachgb]

I'm praying for something like that for Ye at Rolling Loud, but honestly I wouldn't be surprised if he backs out like Coachella

[@lou7619]

so luckyyy I need to see him live before I die

[@PoorlyWrttenReviews]

Very jealous, what a crazy first show

[@ethanrobbins9401]

My first concert I went to was Tyler the Creator’s CMIYGL tour in Worcester, MA. He thought he was in Boston and had a 5 minute convo with the guy who told him he was actually in Worcester. The production and energy of the concert was insane, full blown spectacle. He played a bunch of classics from all his albums, including SMUCKERS (one of my absolute favorite songs of his), and he was playing off the crowd so well. By the end, he was saying “the energy here tonight was wild, and I don’t really say that at all my shows. Y’all were great” and the whole arena went nuts. Best first concert I could’ve asked for. Edit: 2:16 That was the concert! He was arguing with the whole crowd where he was.

[@ethandew1768]

I live in the worcester county how tf did I miss this?!

[@claire.felty1]

i was at the orlando concert on march 18th, also my first ever. he said it was one of the best concerts he had played in recent memory and he was definitely coming back. pretty cool if you ask me

[@bonzibuddy9316]

I was at the same show, it was super fun and his set design was amazing

[@burtington]

I went to his concert in Ohio 3 days before my birthday. It cost a lot for me to get 2 good tickets, but it was so worth it. It was also my first concert ever, and I was happy he played some of his older songs. He told our group we were one of the most energetic he'd seen (I'm seeing a pattern lmao)

[@yeahboi8168]

I went to school in Worcester during that tour how did I miss that???

[@feeeeefmusic]

I saw Tyler’s set at Lollapalooza 2021 and everything was executed perfectly. The stage design and techniques, the different costumes changes between the bellhop, Baudelaire and Igor. The setlist with Tylers best songs without being too long, and Tyler’s energy. His fucking energy with his screaming and dancing. The crowd was turnt as hell and there was a crazy ass moshpit during New Magic Wand

[@alexheidkamp5925]

My first concert was the DONDA Listening Party in Chicago. I was shocked on how amazing the whole thing was. Standing in front of the house while seeing 20 cars roll around, hundreds of people, Kanye, DaBaby, Marilyn Manson, Don Toliver, Travis Scott, etc then seeing Ye on fire and Kim Kardashian walking out as the final track plays???? Was definitely an experience I won't forget

[@burtington]

I went to an Aminé concert a few months back (my 2nd concert ever) and something I really respected about his concert was that throughout he would take a moment to say "You're beautiful" and then the audience would reply "I know!" I just think it's such a wholesome thing to do especially at a rap concert. I'm going to an UMI concert tomorrow and I'm so excited!

[@pashspicee]

I went to UMI this past week in New York and she was so so so good she had choreo and I totally cried by the end enjoy!!!!!

[@SwedFoLife]

If you want spectacular and extravagant live performances, for me that always comes to mind is Pink Floyd's The Wall Tour (1980-1981). Featuring giant inflatable puppets of characters from the album, a(n almost full-size ) model plane chrashing on stage, animated segments, and of course. The titular wall being built brick by brick through the show, eventually fully blocking the audiance's view of the band behind it. It then finally gets torn down at the end. Look up some footage of it, it's insane!

[@pansexualdickhaver6878]

Lady Gaga Pink Floyd Kanye Alice Cooper Marilyn Manson Beyoncé Tool Micheal Jackson are all some of my favorite performers

[@mokat]

as a backstage worker, I would've adored to work on the wall back on the day, it looks so fun

[@easybakec0ven]

Last October I went to go see this avant-garde metal trio called Imperial Triumphant in my home town. If I were to guess, there probably weren't more than 80 people total attending it. Yet for the 50 minutes it lasted, I and nearly everyone else were completely transfixed by their presence. At points there were some decent attempts at moshing, but more than anything now one could deny how menacing and enthralling they were while performing; it demanded full attention. From their creepy gold masks, to the insane jazz drumming and blast beats, the crowd being doused with a champagne bottle they brought and the bassist sliding that same bottle across the fretboard, the whole experience was otherworldly, despite not even being 10 feet away from the stage. And to think, just an hour prior I had met all the members of the band, who were all kind enough to sign my poster. Hell, the frontman, Zach, was running the merch stand all by himself.

[@thomasgauntt]

Alphaville was the best album of 2020 honestly. If you like Imperial btw check out Oranssi Pazuzu

[@easybakec0ven]

@@thomasgauntt Agreed. Also yeah I love Oranssi Pazuzu as well.

i saw tame impala live and it was amazing… the lights and quality of his vocals live now are just amazing

[@ch3rri]

got to see my chemical romance (my favorite band) in glasgow. the setlist was a mix of the classics, deep cuts and fan favorites and i was screaming and singing every word and was in pure euphoria. welcome to the black parade isn't even my favorite mcr song but hearing it live with everyone singing and phone lights up was like out of this world.

[@supermariostupidshow]

the best concert i ever went to was Paul Mccartney (funnily enough) for his Got Back Tour, you can just feel the vibes in the crowd and Paul’s great pyrotechnics

[@SJGarnetALT]

I went to a Coldplay concert in my country a few months ago and it was actually epic Hearing everyone in the crowd that one bit from Clocks at the same time was a wonderful feeling

[@chicagoakland]

Just saw my first concert in a LONG time: Thundercat in a midsize venue. It was amazing. That experience inspired me to save up and see Kendrick at his opening date in Oklahoma next month, can't wait to see how that goes.

[@luisshorts303]

I was literally about to check the prices for Kendrick tickets in okc cause of video lmao

[@finishtyping]

I’ve been to only a few concerts and hope to go many more. The most recent went to was Tyler in Charleston, SC for his CMIYGL tour. I can confidently say it was one of the most unforgettable nights of my life. The attention to detail in the production was insane. Not to mention, Tyler did a great performance and proved just how talented he is as a performer. 10/10 show.

[@dairesmyth]

I just saw weezer , fall out boy and green day on tour and it was the best night of my life it was so good the music , the stage , the effects , the performances and the crowd was great

[@steebelieves2632]

[@myeditz-yn7xl]

I went to the CMIYGL concert in LA, the one where they played it live on Amazon music. Not being dramatic when I say it was life changing. So many times where I cried and just stop singing to really take in the moment. He was so close too 😩

[@sleep6837]

The Weeknd has always put on some amazing shows, especially those Kiss Land era fall shows. I've got tickets to his new tour, and I can't wait to see what kind of amazing stuff he pulls off next...

My first concert I went to was actually a month ago on my birthday to see 070 Shake and it was awesome! It was great as first concert cuz there wasn't a lot of people and most people were rly chill and cool. Whoever did the lighting did an amazing job and her music just sounded so good live. I rly wish I could've seen The Weeknd live during his Kiss Land era cuz it looked amazing but I was too young. Super excited to see him at the After Hours Til Dawn tour tho!

Watching Between the Buried and Me perform their album 'Colors' in its entirety from start to finish with no breaks between songs, will always be the greatest concert I've been to

[@jaidendetering8734]

Im very happy to say that my first concert was Eminem on his Rapture tour in 2019. Single-handedly the greatest experience of my life. Now I'm going to Kendrick on his Mr Morale tour in December and cannot wait

[@matteoperez5343]

Just started going to concerts this year at Gov Ball, the CMIYGL tour, and a Freddie Gibbs show and I can say some notable performers that absolutely kill the live setting are Denzel Curry, Tyler, and Jpegmafia

[@antoine5871]

Peggy is absolutely goated live

I’ve been to astrofest which was fun until the next morning when I checked the news. I’ve also went to the Houston show of the CMIYGL tour which was a very good show.

[@kiroshow]

Been going to a LOT more concerts recently. Saw Weird Al live recently, absolutely fantastic show. Great performances. And your videos are fantastic too! Love your content :]

[@dronemaster24]

I recently saw Coldplay live and I really enjoyed it. Really hoping I’ll be able to obtain tickets to see The Weeknd. Update: I did manage to get tickets last minute for The Weeknd's opening show in Toronto. However, it was postponed because of a internet outage happening across Canada. :/ Update 2: Finally saw him live, it was great!

[@cyclopcybop772]

Hoping to go a Tyler the Creator one soon… I have a nice list of ones I’ve been to, Katy Perry, Lil Tecca, Marshmello (a mistake and what felt like an epileptic seizure)… the list goes on

[@ivanazaroffmusic]

The Tyler show was one of the best nights of my life. If you have the chance to see him, you’re gonna have a blast

[@myeditz-yn7xl]

Tyler was an undescribable euphoric feeling. 10000000% would recommend. Truly life changing

[@Kp-pd6wc]

I went to his Seattle one it was such a great experience with the pre acts and his choices of song

[@erroljackson9423]

I went to his set when he was the the Buku Music Festival this year and it was awesome

[@InfamousJJ420]

Philly Tyler show went hard. He’ll release next year you’ll get a chance then

[@migueljoseph6191]

My first concert was Lil baby and Lil durk last October. I wasn’t their biggest fan at first but after the concert my love for their music just elevated. I went to see Silk Sonic in Vegas and I would go again 10X over. Will be seeing The Weeknd in a few weeks, hopefully he doesn’t disappoint!!

[@julianguastadisegno]

My favourite concert was seeing Linkin Park live at Maximus Festival 2017 here in Buenos Aires, in reality it was "only" a concert nothing very unique production-wise but the crowd was worked up (as usual) and it just got more significant for me as it was one of their last concerts before Chester died. If you can go see in the end live on that concert, it is easily my favourite memory.

[@ranchnosalad6337]

I went to the CMIYGL show in Detroit, and idk if anything will be able to top that. Not only was the performance the most beautiful thing i’ve ever seen live, but a ton of weird things happened there as well. Me and a couple of my friends just straight up stole some better seats than what we had bought, and we were somehow lucky enough to have a row to ourselves. We then realized that right behind us was Demetrius Harmon from vine, and literally right next to us was Babyface Ray. At the end, me and my friend kept blowing kisses to Tyler to try and get his attention, and he looked at us and blew one back. Best concert ever.

[@winterriley4829]

I got to see Godspeed You! Black Emperor in Boston back in April, where the venue held maybe 300-400 concertgoers. Easily one of the best shows I've ever been to. The venue ended opening up vip balcony seating to everyone and I ended up at the front of it. At the end of it, all the band members just went out to the front door and opened themselves up to chats with their fans. Smaller venues are the best.

[@josemariareyes3448]

Silk Sonic in Vegas was probably the best show I've ever seen

[@John-ye3ij]

My first (and so far only) concert was Cake and Ben Folds in Boston. I was like 13, I don't remember what the venue was, although I do remember the opener was some band called Twin Peaks. Ben's part was pretty chill, but I remember that Cake gave some guy a tree. Like, he came up on stage and they gave him a tree. Or maybe they just gave him ownership of a tree not on the stage, I don't remember. So that was pretty fun. I'm going to see a They Might Be Giants concert in Portland later this year, hope that doesn't get postponed because Flansburg breaks even more ribs. On the subject of TMBG, I can't help but bring up this one concert in the 90s where the stage apparently collapsed with them on it. Just thought I'd mention that.

[@ethanheinzerling522]

Maaaaaaan when you brought up Woodstock and mud I was just waiting to hear you talk about Green Day’s set at Woodstock 94

[@upsettispaghetti7568]

I went to a Denzel Curry concert on May 15th with Zay as an opener, and it was my first ever concert I actually went to. He performed around an hour, and included songs from Taboo, MMESYF, ZUU, Unlocked and Imperial. Some of my favorite moments from the concert were the entire crowd singing the hook of Black Balloons, him performing the fast part of Ultimate without a beat to back his rapping up, and when he noticed me in the crowd. I made the Taboo album cover from beads about 5 months ago and held it up during the concert. During Troubles, he pointed at random people in the crowd and noticed me holding it up, so he smiled down while pointing at me for a few seconds. The best part happened after the concert, however. I gave the security manager the album cover, who replied saying that he'd bring him out again. After 10 minutes of waiting, the manager told me to come with him so I ran backstage with him. Denzel had already received it, shook my hand, asked me: "Did you make that? That's cool." and also thanked me in English and German. Then I gave him the tickets but no one had a pen. A woman gave one to him but that didn't work well, so he said 'I'll be right back', sprinted into a nearby room and then came back within a literal second saying :'Alright, I found a pen!' After all of that, he signed the tickets, we shook hands again, he hugged me and I left the backstage area. Being there was amazing.

[@drillbit8280]

I saw Tool live in Louisville this year. It was amazing! We had pretty low seats and so I could hear everything just fine.. unfortunately before the show I had eaten some subpar pizza and my stomach was killing me. But I refused to go to the bathroom and miss this show that I had been waiting months for. So instead, I just sat down for 3 hours.. yeah. But the light show was great, and the crowd was *mostly* nice. We ended up leaving early cause my stomach aches had came back and I felt like I was gonna throw up. So we left in the middle of the second to last song. But it was an amazing experience and I really want to see them again.

[@noaharkadedelgado]

I went to my friends Jazz, blues and rock and roll concert where they had a bunch of artists performing. When they performed the blues all the old people got up and started doing the twist. It was an amazing experience

I live in Ireland, so we don’t get as many shows as other countries because we’re so small. On the upside tickets are never expensive… Seeing Kendrick in November and the ticket cost like €70, absolute steal

[@MasonCreates25]

First concert I went to was Drake during his Nothing Was The Same era (2013). Second time was Twenty One Pilots for their Bandito Tour in 2019. Was going to go to Tyler’s CMIYGL tour but we cancelled and lent the tickets to relatives. Hoping to see more shows in the future

[@notbrian6805]

Wasn't there but best concert moment I remember seeing was Scarlxrd rapping his fast part of his song Heart Attack and he saw a fan spitting it word for word so he climbed down and put the mic to the dude. Having a favorite artist give you the mic while you say his bars and him screaming it with you,this would be a highlight

[@ogibbo]

going to see carti at wireless on saturday, hope he’s as good as he looks live

[@a13xow34]

My third ever concert was Ski mask the slump god. It was shady as hell because some guy behind me (really close to the front of the pit) was talking about Pouya (opener) stealing a few racks from his store. Another opener almost fought the DJ running the whole show until security stepped in. Never felt closer to something actually bad happening LMAO

[@BrainSupper]

Never been in a concert once in my life but if I were to, I wish I could catch a Muse concert. I've seen a lot of them here on YT and just the energy, especially with their early stuff, is amazing, in my opinion.

I saw Wu Tang, Lil Wayne and Wiz Khalifa live this past Saturday. I’ve always wanted to see Wayne live and was finally able to. A Milli live was crazy to see. Wu Tang and Wiz was just a plus.

[@thelive_99]

I went to three concerts and each of them have significant memories. My first concert was Fall Out Boy's American Beauty / American Psycho. My mom went all out for me by buying merch and listening to the album with me. My second was Logic's Confession of a Dangerous Mind. People were shitting on me for liking him, but dude that concert made me feel proud to be a Logic fan and the set up was awesome. My third concert was Rex Orange County's Who Cares. I went because my friend had an extra ticket, and it was her first concert. I was a causal fan, but after that concert, I really enjoyed him and went back to listening to his albums again. I would love to see Megan thee Stallion or Tyler the Creator in concert. But yeah, live shows/concerts do give unforgettable experiences.

[@maxlimit9129]

I've been to a few shows, but I'll never forget my first: Injury Reserve, September 2019 in Philly. The venue was tiny enough that the Koruna & Lime moshpit was the size of the whole crowd, it was insane. Other great shows I've seen include Earthgang twice, Isaiah Rashad, and Freddie Gibbs for free bc my roommate works at the venue. Gonna go see Cudi in September and Denzel Curry in October

My favorite concert was probably the king vamp tour in San Francisco. And holy shit, I’ve never experienced something more crazy and catastrophic this show was.

[@gabrielcorrea700]

I went to see The Rolling Stones in the summer awhile back. At the same time we were at Miami preparing for a hurricane that wasn’t changing course. So near the end of the show it’s start to rain, really bad, and at the same time, the stones were playing gimme shelter during it and it was absolutely beautiful. But after the song they went backstage before the encore and someone was screaming in the crowd that the hurricane changed course and it wasn’t going to hit Miami anymore. The Stones blew that hurricane out of course and no one can change my mind.

[@ZectricFOZ]

You do such a good job of combining interesting informational content in a super entertaining way. I really appreciate it. My first concert was Beachhouse in Philly half a decade or so ago. I remember it was $35 and I was debating if it was worth it at the time. In retrospect it was 100% worth it and I had so much fun. I've gone to a couple concerts every year since them (minus COVID peak). Most notably was Cordae. Tickets were relatively cheaper and he (+ the crowd) went HARD. Really good memory.

[@KilianMcCartney]

I went to quite a few concerts because it’s literally all I spend my money on and the absolute best ones I was at are Paul McCartney in 2018 which also was my first concert and I remember just standing there with my jaw dropped for the first 4 songs because I couldn’t believe that I’m seeing a Beatle and one of the greatest artists of all time with my own eyes. Then Elton John probably had the best stage show I’ve been to yet with the background videos he was showing on this huge screen and the whole stage decoration in general. Last but not least YUNGBLUD and My Chemical Romance were probably the most fun ones because everyone was jumping around and just had fun.

[@grahamcrackers1249]

I went to my first concert this year in February, my second coming this November, when I finally get to see Thom Yorke in person (from the semi back row of a theater in Detroit). Merely the idea of this moment has made me more excited than any visual artist could ever make me, not even Bjork made me this excited (my first concert). I am so happy I get to experience this, although I would really appreciate a last ditch Radiohead tour

I saw them a few weeks ago, and it was truly a magical experience. Not only was the band, set, and music phenomenal, the venue was especially great. It was on this plateau that stuck out into the near by river, and the sun set right behind the crowd. Getting to hear something like Naeem or Perth as the whole sky turned pink and orange… It dead ass felt like a spiritual experience.

I am gonna see Primus later this year, this’ll be my first concert ever! Pretty excited!

[@onlysmallbites]

I really have to thank the universe for giving me a flexible work schedule and being able to call out of work without any hiccups and conflict. Been able to see Kendrick, Travis, Tyler, Cole, and etc over the years. Lately I’ve been going to shows to see my favorite artists and groups who are now old age and won’t be touring anymore. Got the chance to see George Clinton with P Funk (no Bootsy 😭), Roy Ayers, and EWF with Santana. Knowing that it might be the last time they’ll tour.

Got to see Aries and brakence in chicago earlier this year and without a doubt the best concert I’ve been to

[@janae8062]

My first real concert was Tyler’s CMIYGL tour and man oh man.. that concert was literally life changing. I went to his concert twice (one in Minneapolis and the other in Atlanta). I will never forget those nights. The energy was like no other. Like seriously it was so wonderful. His attention to detail, making sure the crowd was vibing, and just ughhh! I wanna go back so bad. My next concert is gonna be Joji when he comes to Atlanta!

Kinda disappointed you didn't talk about MF DOOM litterally putting other people in his concerts, quite a mad villain, RIP DOOM

I go to mainly metal and punk shows, and a lot of small underground shows in tiny venues, and I feel like the attitude towards openers varies so much from genre to genre. If a big or mid-sized metal tour is happening, there’s anywhere from 2-4 smaller opening bands that get taken on the tour. There’s tons of shows I’ve gone to just because of the openers, without even being a fan of the headliner. And contrasting the things I’ve seen at punk and metal shows versus shows in different genres, people in heavier music seem to give the openers so much more respect than people at a pop, folk, or indie show.

One of the craziest shows I’ve been aware for a while is Excision’s Thunderdome. Look up videos from this year

My favorite concert experience has to be seeing Phish on 10/23/21 in San Diego. It was my 4th time seeing them, and I had just traveled from my hometown of Phoenix where they played the night before (first time since 2003), and this was middle show before going up to LA to see them the day after. I could go on and on and on and on about how much this show meant to me, and I will do exactly that. Pre-show, the main talk around the community was because of the name of the venue, the North Island Credit Union Amphitheater. There just so happens to be a Phish song called NICU, and so there was a whole debate on whether or not they would play it or if it was way too obvious and all that shit. Little did we know how important that would be. Another thing worth mentioning is that I was in a box with about 6 other people. So Phish gets on, and they open with Fluffhead, which already probably should have been a sign of greatness, because Fluffhead is one of their most difficult and beloved songs. It wasn't a flawless performance of it, but 38 years into the band's existence we'll take a solid rendition. But then, during the last section of the song, they keep chugging along, past the point where they can end it normally. If you know anything about Phish, this might not seem that crazy, but this isn't supposed to happen in Fluffhead. They groove along for a few minutes until eventually go straight into the thing we should have all seen coming, NICU. Then NICU does the exact same thing Fluff did, go way beyond past the end of the song into the unknown, all while frequently returning to the NICU melody that (spoiler alert) we would all know very well by the end. After it had gotten to the point that it had certified itself as the best NICU ever played (this isn't supposed to happen in NICU either), the jam faded into the second ever Bye Bye Foot since 1997, a much welcome breather. Then they fired up an amazing Tube, getting out of the funk and getting into the blissful major key jamming they've gotten down to a science at this point (with some more NICU teases thrown in for good measure), a return to the former before the drop into the end of the song. Then they cruise through a great Slave To The Traffic Light (just an incredibly beautiful song), the slow version of Llama, and then ending the 1st set with Rise/Come Together, a song I usually fucking despise but in all honestly didn't matter to me that much in the moment, and listening back on recording it still doesn't really bother me. Oh yeah, and then a final NICU tease at the very end. Setbreak happens, then the 2nd set immediately got down to business with No Men In No Man's Land, which out of the five major jam pieces of this show, is definitely the least notable, but it's still very good and I love it when Phish gets a bit into spooky ambience. Smooth transition into Free, which like NICU and Tube, was one of the longest versions ever. This jam has a very similar structure to the Tube, with some (you guessed it) NICU teases, as they build off idea after idea before returning to the song. Joy took up the 2nd set ballad spot (no complaints, it's one of my favorite Phish ballads), and then they bust into Sand, which is usually a jam vehicle but this time the jam just serves as a nicely played into to Piper. This Piper is easily the most famous and beloved jam of the show, and the masses are exactly right. This motherfucking just keeps building and building into a crazy climax, before collapsing into a ginormous, ugly wall of evil sound. I will not over-exaggerate this, this thing was fucking LOUD at the show. It's probably my all-time favorite concert moment. Out of the depths comes Scents And Subtle Sounds. Perfect call, amazing song, and this version is just pure bliss. Perfect end to the second set. Then they go back on for the encore, and they play Lonely Trip, and allow me to add in some personal details. This song originated from a Trey solo album before it started being played with Phish last year. It immediately became my favorite song that debuted in 2021. They had just played it in Eugene on 10/20, and because that was the show before Phoenix, I thought that I wouldn't see it and it was off the table. Then they play it during the encore of the greatest concert I've ever seen, and I almost start crying out of happiness. Anyway, after that, they thank the audience, then Trey goes into greeting the other band members which then sets up an NICU pun, pretty adorable. Then the show ends with the perfect choice, Trey holding his guitar above his head at the end of First Tube. The next night at the Forum was probably a more fun experience (that show is on the complete opposite side of the Phish spectrum as this one), and I saw the band 3 times at the famed Deer Creek Music Center in Indiana earlier this month, and that was probably more fun too. But as for the quality of the music that was performed, this absolutely takes the crown. Jams out of songs that don't usually go that far, a rare one, incredible improvisational masterpieces, fun stage antics, all there. I don't think I'll ever see a concert as good as 10/23/21. And that's okay. That show was just too perfect.

I went to the Mr Morale tour in nyc a week ago, and in my multiple Kendrick shows and concerts and festivals I’ve been too, it was the best. I didn’t have a good seat but it was somehow the best show I’ve been to

[@CDVN2000]

Just went to my first festival at parklife 2022 and it was nuts, Tyler the Creator was the absolute stand out and was absolutely mad, had flamethrowers and firework's. Tyler went f***in crazy

[@NikeSimmons]

The Kanye TLoP tour was one of my favorites.... mac miller and Isaiah rashad were also fun ... cant wait for Kendrick this summer

[@phillyboi0309]

if you do one on more concerts like a vid like about cool concert stages or something like that you should include slipknot because they have an insane stage rn for their tour

[@wazz35]

I went to see Kendricks Big Steppers Tour yesterday the set was incredible
