Real David H.

It’s well documented how big of a Dave Matthews Band fan I am, but my live music experience expands well beyond that. Thanks to some connections in college, I saw many country artists for free in the late 1990s; I also got to see a variety of artists by going to the Lilith Fair in 1998 and Farm Aid in 1999.

Here’s a sampling of artists and bands I’ve seen live. I hate to limit it to 12, but this is, afterall, called “12 things.”

1. Barenaked Ladies
2. Vince Gill
3. Ben Folds
4. Brooks & Dunn
5. Bush
6. Bryan Adams
7. Alabama
8. Norah Jones
9. Willie Nelson
10. Bela Fleck and The Flecktones
11. Billy Ray Cyrus
12. Garth Brooks
