Ok this is really embarrassing, but it was Taylor Swift last Feb. But in my defence I was acting as chaperone to Miss10.
A couple weeks prior to that I went to see Neko Case in Perth- so thats the last "adult" one I went to.

Faith No More in February at Festival Hall.

Lucky, lucky girl! I missed out on tickets.
Last one I saw was Them Crooked Vultures at the Hordern on Australia Day.
Going to Groovin' the Moo in a couple of weeks. Looking forward to Vampire Weekend and Silverchair.

It was "Groovin' the Moo" last May. We took the kids (then aged 7 and almost 5) - it was their very first concert. Think DS is going to be a bit of a daredevil in the mosh pit when he's a bit older!
Wut??

The Police in Singapore.

Tell me about it! And my Dh asked "Who's the singer again?" Had to bite my tongue before "He's my other husband" flew out lol.

IF musicals count, then Avenue Q last month year.
If not, it was Audioslave in Fort Lauderdale, Florida in 2007. I haven't been to an actual concert since I've been back in Australia, which is 2 years.

Okkervil River in May 2009. I had never seen them live before and didn't really 'get' their music.
I am a fanatic now. I would challenge any teen girl to out fangirl me.
I might give you a run for your money

. Mine was the Mountain Goats a couple of weeks ago.

The Whitlams in March 2010 won tickets from the local newspaper which was very exciting.
Used to go to lots of gigs, don't go out as much now we have a kid and a mortgage.
Before that was mid 2009 and saw a Pink tribute band at a local club, they were excellent!
also jealous of those who saw Faith No More, I have loved them since High school but never seen them live! (Mike Patton is my long standing crush! lol)

Saturday night - Absolutely 80s featuring Scott Carne (Kids in the Kitchen), Brian Mannix (Uncanny Xmen), Fred (Machinations) and Dale Ryder (Boom Crash Opera) - brilliant night.

Two weeks before that it was Tears for Fears and Spandau Ballet. Can you tell I am an 80s gal??

Black Eyes Peas in Sydney last October.
Aside from Wiggles twice and Play School twice, the last adult one before that was Jewel at the Opera House. I can't remember whether I was pregnant with DS#2 yet or not. I know it was after DS#1 was born though.

Easy Star All Stars in Kendal, UK, back in 2008. We tried to see them again in 2009 when I was 40wks pregnant, but were diverted on the road on the way there and they were sold out by the time we arrived! Wound up listening from outside

I've been making a real effort to go to shows again like pre kids!
Ravi Shankar & Anoushka at the Opera House - top vibe and very cool
Henry Rollins - spoken word at the Enmore. Always great
Lisa Mitchell at the Enmore last week - fantastic and a great voice
