Bands I've Seen Play

some of these are rather embarrassing;
some were only opening bands (and therefore not embarrassing);
some I really enjoyed;
some I've seen more than once;
some are missing altogether (because they're forgotten)

...

in alphabetical order, because there's no way I can list them chronologically
