How Many Times Have You Seen Jack Live?

Post by shaneoftheroad »

I just realized I've seen Jack more times than any other artist, as of last Thursday. So, congratulations Jack! You win!

I think after these upcoming shows in June it'll be around 25?

I think he's also my most seen artist, but I've seen Dave Grohl a similar number of times across various bands (his number was drastically improved after the Stripes cancelled their 2007 and I couldn't get a refund on the hotels I'd booked, so rearranged them to go to 7 Foo Fighters shows instead). (Edit: 23 for Dave across Foo/Vultures/Sound City)

Great thread Shane. I love these (enough to poke my head out of lurker-dom). Friday night in the Blue Room brought me to 9 Jack solo shows, 20 including the other three bands. Living in Nashville has brought opportunities to see him sit in at a few shows as well. I've seen all of his "big" band incarnations at Bonnaroo, and all except The White Stripes (naturally) in the Blue Room. My most seen band may seem a little lame to some, but My Morning Jacket is my favorite band next to anything Jack related, and I've seen them 30 times going back to 2004.


White Stripes- x2
5-18-07 Cannery- Nashville (First show of Icky Thump tour)
6-1-07 Bonnaroo

Raconteurs- x6
11-19-06 City Hall- Nashville (last show of Broken Boy Soldiers tour)
4-14-08 Cannery- Nashville (First two shows of Consolers of the Lonely tour)
4-15-08 Cannery- Nashville
6-13-08 Bonnaroo
9-14-11 Blue Room at TMR- Nashville
9-15-11 Ryman- Nashville

Dead Weather-x3
10-2-09 Tabernacle- Atlanta
5-3-10 Blue Room at TMR- Nashville (This was the Myspace-streamed Sea of Cowards show, won tickets via Vault)
6-12-10 Bonnaroo

Jack solo- x9
3-12-12 Workplay- Birmingham AL
5-15-12 Ryman- Nashville
5-16-12 Ryman- Nashville
10-10-12 Carl Perkins Center- Jackson TN
4-19-14 Blue Room at TMR- Nashville (World's Fastest Record show)
6-14-14 Bonnaroo
7-27-14 Stage AE- Pittsburgh
1-28-15 Bridgestone-Nashville
3-16-18 Blue Room at TMR- Nashville

Assorted Jack sit-ins
10-22-10 5, 6, 7, 8's- Blue Room at TMR- sat in for a couple of tunes during encore
1-15-11 Wanda Jackson at the Grand Ol' Opry- several songs with the TMR House Band
1-18-11 Wanda Jackson- Blue Room at TMR- full performance with the TMR House Band
12-18-13 Brendan Benson and Friends at the Ryman- sat in on a tune

I’ve seen him 10 times. 1 x Raconteurs. 9x solo. I’ve got 3 more at least planned for this tour.

Most I’ve seen one band is The Glorious Sons at 13 times, in 4 different countries. 14th time will be my birthday next month.

That’s cool man. Looks like we are in a similar boat here. I see 40-50 shows a year but the majority are different artists. I know a bunch of people who have seen one or two bands 50+ times but then I ask who else they have seen and it’s few and far between. I’d get way too bored too quick seeing only the same band. Hell, I love checking out new bands and going to $10-20 shows at bars. I’ve discovered some of my favourite artists there... You miss out on WAY too much by only seeing one band all the time.

I've got just the one White Stripes show (Sydney 2005) and six Dead Weather shows (2009; All oz minus one Sydney show, plus Auckland NZ) under my belt. If he continues to get the rave reviews he has had after the show the other night, I might finally get to a solo gig this time around.

Just 1 time.
In France there is 2 or 3 dates. It is complicated with work to see him during the week. So the only time was in June 2014 at the Olympia, and of course it was a week end. I am sad to not see him this year but I have hope and I will wait 1 or 2 years if necessary.

TWS-1
Racs-1

I think this count is accurate, although I could've swore I have seen Dead Weather a time or two more.

Artist I've seen the most? Maybe Primus. That sounds right.

I can't believe I didn't pay more attention when I first heard The White Stripes all those years ago. I only discovered them properly around 6 months before they broke up.

I hated them when i first heard them (2001). Then I worked at Hot Topic and a coworker liked them a lot, and would listen to them constantly. I just kinda caved and started to like them(2003). Then I saw them live at Bonnaroo (2007) and was blown away by how great they were. That show made me go from a casual fan to a full fledged one.
