My addiction

This addiction has taken over life since March 22, 1993. Did I start smoking or drinking that day? No. It was my first concert (without parents). I'm hooked.

By looking at the list it's obvious that I'm not into one certain band. Sure, there's a few that I've seen multiple times, but how many people have gone to a Dave Matthews Band show and then see Jay-Z five days later? Or cKy with a Coldplay concert a couple weeks apart? I rest my case.
