Just like the Metal thread like this one, list all notable non-metal musicians and bands you've seen in concert. I'll try to remember all the ones I've seen, and post it soon. Don't forget to include some embarrassing ones you've been dragged too.

Besides lots of local jazz musicians, I can't really think of anything

I�ve probably left out a couple of metal related hard rock acts, but otherwise the list is pretty complete. ...and yes Cher was my first concert. 13 years old and drunk on vodka

Damn, I've seen many non-metal concerts. I can't remember all of them, but the ones that come to mind are Depeche Mode, The Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Keb Mo, Spandau Ballet, Burnin' Red Ivanhoe, Valravn, Hedningarne, Tabula Rasa, Strawberry Blonde, Status Quo, �stkyst Hustlers, Jyder M� Attityder, and the techno-pop band Infernal (I almost hit the entire band with my car after their gig was over, as they walked straight into my path to get to their tour bus).

I actually haven't been to many non-metal shows myself. Here are some I recall right now.
2001 (all in the same festival, my first ever concert): Blink 182 Newfound Glory Sum 41 Good Charlotte Jimmy Eat World Simple Plan Project Wyze 2007: Beastie Boys Chromeo (openers) 2011: Return To Forever IV There must be one or 2 I'm not remembering because that seems too short.

Add another one to my list. I will go see Allan Holdsworth with Jimmy Haslip and Virgil Donati in a few weeks in their Toronto-area performance.
