That's right, I'm resetting my charts. After four and a half years on this wonderful site, I finally feel it is time.

My use of Last.fm greatly differs now compared to four years ago. Back then I actually cared about my charts and often used this site to discover new artists. Now I don't care about my charts, and I use RateYourMusic to discover music instead. I still visit this site daily, but only to keep track of how many times I've listened to artists/albums/songs/etc.

There are many reasons for the reset. My overall chart does not represent my tastes…

Kinda missed the day, whoops. So this is about a week late. I'm thinking of resetting my charts soon though so I'm gonna go all out and put my top 50 in here.

2. John Frusciante – 860 plays

Damn, this show sold out fast. I got tickets seconds after they went on sale to the public, and I was in the back row on the floor level. :P Damn presales. Oh well, good thing there’s no such thing as a bad seat at this place. Great venue.

So I went with my dad, my sister (she’s as big of a fan as I am) and my friend Katelyn. After my sister got a t-shirt at the merch booth, we got to our seats a few minutes after…

Oct. 16, 2006 - Iron Maiden @ Air Canada Centre, Toronto

Maiden was my first metal show. I went with my dad, who isn't really a fan but likes going to shows with me when there's seated venues. :P While it was obviously an amazing experience to see them live, there were two things that kinda sucked. There were no opening acts, which probably would've been cool to see. And their set consisted of A Matter of Life and Death in its entirety (which I personally thought wasn't that great of an album) and from what I remember: Fear of…
