Ok, the first shows are embarrassing to admit...but I was thirteen, ok! And I'll do my best to remember them all :)
Warrant, Motley Crue w/ Faster Pussycat, Poison w/ Warrant, Skid Row w/ Pantera, Warrant again, Van Halen, Guns 'n' Roses, Def Leppard, Beastie Boys, Queensryche, Peter Murphy, Lolapalooza '94 (Smashing Pumpkins, Beasties, Green Day, and some other people) Everclear, Green Day, Red Hot Chili Peppers 4x?, No Doubt, Cake, Filter, Kamp KOME (311, No Doubt, Goldfinger) Tibetan Freedom Concert '96 (Beasties, Rage Against the Machine, Fugees, Red Hot Chili Peppers and a lot more that I don't remember right now) 311 at least 16x, Goldfinger many times, I've lost count, Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Cherry Popping Daddies, Bumpin' Uglies, Rancid, Bloodhound Gang, Social Distortion, The Offspring 2x, Sugar Ray, Incubus 3x, Janes Addiction at least 4x, but not in their heyday, unfortunately, just relapses, The Goo Goo Dolls 3x, Sebastian Bach solo!, oh yeah, and Poison again later in life, Depeche Mode, Prince, Madonna.

Hmm, I'm drawing some blanks here, for some reason. I've been to a lot of those festival-type shows, Lolapalooza, Warped Tour, Radio Shows, etc., where there are like 10+ bands playing, so I'm not gonna list all those either. I feel like there's something really obvious and important missing...

Ok, it was bugging me, so I went through 311's Tour History and listed the shows I know for sure I've seen. There may be others that I'm forgetting... Kamp KOME at Shoreline '96, Warfield SF Dec.'96 2x, Sac. w/ Sugar Ray '97, House of Blues Hollywood '97, Sac. 11/01/97, KWOD Show Arco '99, Cow Palace w/ RHCP '99, Drunken Fresno State '00, Semi-Drunken Berkeley '00, Shoreline '01, Fresno w/ Lindsey '02, Portland w/ Amy '02, Warfield w/ Patrick '03, Fresno w/ Tamara '03, Berkeley w/ Patrick '04.

Goldfinger shows that I can think of - Kamp KOME, Weird Toad Town in the hills of Sonora Co. during El Nino, Sac. El Dorado 2x, The Brickworks Chico, Tahoe Snow Show, Warfield w/ Sugar Ray, San Bernardino, Reno, and I know there are more, but I have to get Bug's help :)

Wow! I knew your list would be great. I'm especailly jealous of the Beastie Boys show, Madonna, Rage Against the Machine, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Social Distortion and Depeche Mode.

Ha-ha! I can't believe all the hair metal bands you've seen!

I saw Jane's Addiction in like 1990 or 1991 I believe. I don't know if that is considered "the day" or not.

Yeah, '90, '91 was when they were cool...back when I was listening to crap metal :-\
