Okay, how'bout "2011 orally manipulated the testicular regions of various barn yard animals?"

Yeah, that'll do.

i had a few dry months but i went to more shows this year than any other year. i already have a list from a document i maintain so ill just copy it from there...deleting the extra information (which i suppose some people might be curious about, like ultimate ticket price) would take an unnecessarily long time so ill just let it slide.

Three Inches of Blood
Blackguard
Kamelot
Yngwie Malmsteen
Judas Priest

Kind of a slow year considering only the last two were bands I was actually a huge fan of

Stryper
U.D.O.
Witchhammer
Susperia

i missed judas priest last summer. can't ever forgive myself.

Priest are still on tour. Maybe you can see them in 2012. I really look forward to see them once more - the last show was great!

My list:
Judas Priest
Iron Maiden
Motörhead
Saxon
Vanderbuyst
Alter Bridge
Mr. Big
Slash
Whitesnake
Rival Sons
Scorpions

Okay, I'm sure I missed something, but I can't figure out right now, what it is. Nevertheless can I say, it was a great year. Not as great as 2011, when I could go to AC/DC, but still good. 2012 will be worse for sure, for many of the bands I listen to won't be on tour anymore...

Not including Download and Sonisphere festivals, where I saw too many bands to remember, I think these are all the gigs I went to this year;

Sodom
Devin Townsend Project (uh... four times this year, I think)
Trans-Siberian Orchestra
Iron Maiden
Ginger Wildheart (x3)
Flogging Molly
Alice Cooper
Iced Earth
Dogs D'Amour
