remphish1 Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 I am always excited when I can say I heave heard every song of an artist album live. I know some of you heard a bunch of Wilco albums live in its entirety but was wondering which albums by other artist have you heard in its entirety either in one show or over multiple shows. Ie it took me 18 shows to finally hear all of Born To Run Live...Meeting Across the River is a rareity that I was fortunate enough to finally hear live! So here goes my list My first one I heard live 1. Dido-No Angel...I went because Travis was opening. I liked a song or two of hers and stuck around and ended up hearing every song on the album at the concert2. Guster- Lost and Gone Forever Took me 18 or so shows and finally heard Rainy Day!3. Beck- Sea Change..heard the full album at one show...have the setlist to prove it!4. They Might Be Giants- Flood album themed night...all in sequence!5. They Might Be Giants Apollo 18 All 38 tracks at once! Yay!6. Bruce Springsteen- Born to Run! Had to happen eventually..I have seen him 15 times 7. Aimee Mann- The Forgotten Arm..saw her a few times on this tour. Heard Beautiful which is rarley played live!8. Barnekaed Ladies- Maroon9. Ben Folds- Rockin the Suburbs10. Ben Kweller- On My Way...all in sequence in Brooklyn!11. Duran Duran- Red Carpet Massacre on Broadway...fun night!12. Franz Ferdinand- Franz Ferdinand13. The Good The Bad and The Queen- TGTBTQ14. Gorillaz- Demon Days at the Apollo! Awesome 80 special guest made an apperence!15. Son Volt- Okema and The Melody of Riot16. Ours- Distorted Lullabye..They are from my neck of the woods...play here all the time!17. Tori Amos- Little Earthquakes18. The Walkmen - Bows + Arrows There may be more but can't remember! Here is some close calls on some great albums. 1. Radiohead- Ok Computer Come on Electoneering..one day!2. Radiohead- Kid A...Treefingers...grrr3. Radiohead- In Rainbows...I attend maybe one of three shows they didn't do Faust Arp! 4. Beck- Odelay Readymade...ever played?5. Ben Folds Five- Whatever....Cigarette!?6.

Elixir Sue Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 Yeah, I thought you were referring to bands performing an album live, start to finish. I've only witnessed that once, and was lucky enough for it to be the White Stripes - Get Behind Me Satan, on 8/31/05 at the Auditorium Theater in Chicago. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

No it doesn't have to be in order or an album themed night. But if it was let me know That show would have been awesome to see! Beethoven's 9th?The Nutcracker? Point taken...extra points if it was performed by the original artist! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Oil Can Boyd Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 If we are talking about seeing a band play an entire album in order in one night (which I am not sure we are), I have seen: Husker Du - WarehouseLou Reed - New YorkMagnetic Fields - 69 Love Songs (they did it over two nights and I saw it twice)Sonic Youth - Daydream Nation Quote Link to post Share on other sites

moxiebean Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 Husker Du - WarehouseDitto. Although I was a bit disappointed w/ this show - I think it's more exciting to see a band live when you don't know what they're going to play next. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
