Is anyone here still into live concerts these days?

If I was still in the States then yes.

In the Seattle area we have an awesome venue at Chateau Ste. Michelle. They have a great sound system, and on a warm summer afternoon, with a picnic an a bottle of CSM wine, we've seen some great shows. Diana Krall, Jackson Browne, Paul Simon (last tour- his encore of The Boxer brought people to tears), Lyle Lovett puts on an awesome show. Gary Clark Jr. Was beyond words for both sound and lights, and his impromptu meet and greet afterwards (no charge, no handlers), spoke volumes. Farther north, we've recently seen a killer show with The Mavericks, and downtown Seattle has Jazz Alley and we've seen more great shows there than I can count. There's also the Triple Door where we've seen David Lindley (RIP) Sonny Landreth, and more. The Big Venues, we've been once in the last 10 years - to see the Rolling Stones. Stupid expensive, but I gotta say, they did not disappoint. 

I’ve gone to a few. I’m finding that even smaller bands are cranking their volume up to painful degrees. I saw Spoon and Alvvays and Spoon was almost unlistenable live whereas Alvvays was just on the edge of being so loud that you really couldn’t hear the songs. Actually, the best concert I’ve seen in a while was the Dandy Warhols in a relatively small space. The Dandys weren’t even headlining but played a very nice set that was tolerable loudness-wise.

So while I would like to go to more, it hasn’t really been a pleasant experience, even with bands that I really want to see.  BTW, these are smaller venues. My city doesn't have or get much in the way of bigger concerts other than casinos or classical music venues. The Casino venues don't really get artists I am interested in.

@allenf1963 , I was filming a TNT movie called “Tecumseh, The Last Warrior”. It was part of a series of Turner movies about the Native American experience in early America. I was out of work, the money was good, and I had a blast. Ziggy’s was part of it. The horse wranglers I was hanging out with liked to party.

Had the pleasure of many a show in and outdoors flower power, hippie wannabe, sex, drugs and Rock ‘n’ roll. I’d feel silly doing that 💩 now. Still love hot rodding, big sound, fine wine etc, but on my schedule in my cave and with my preferred company. Not to mention the coin people want to listen to S… sound, ridiculous.
