candyliquor35m's concert thread brought this to mind... which artists have you returned to see the most times?

For me:

Dave Mason
Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers
Doobie Brothers
Gordon Lightfoot
Pat Metheny
Tinsley Ellis

My age is showing.

    I guess first would be GWAR. I have seen them a bunch of times.
    Slayer
    Iron Maiden
    Nuclear Assault
    Rush
    Sara Evans
    Brad Paisley
    Toby Keith

    I guess I don't really fall into one genre.

    Lord....there's no way I could possibly remember that. Some of them, my buddy back home still has to remind me about concerts that we BOTH went to. Hmmm...

    I know I've seen KISS 20+ times from 1976 to the reunion tour in 1996. I've probably been to 200+ concerts since that time. Bands more than 3 times each would include Van Halen, Scorpions, Whitesnake, Def Leppard, Dokken, Skid Row....sheesh, there's no way I can remember all of those.

    Eagles and Don Henley.

    I've seen Norah Jones twice. She was a bit unsure of herself the first time around. Now, she's a pro.

    I refuse to go to another KISS "last time we are going to tour" concert! I think I've seen them about 5 or 6 times pre-retirement, and the last three giving it up tours. Enough!

    Cowboy Junkies - over 10 times
    Martin Zellar - 20 or so times
    Moody Blues - at least 6 times
    Yes - at least 3 times
    Willie Nelson - at least 3 that I can remember
    Ted Nugent - I lost count of the number of times I have seen Uncle Teddy!
    Black Sabbath - the real Black Sabbath - at least 6 times

    There's probably more!
