Shoot! I couldn't even try to remember the concerts I've been to! Most recently it has been Jimmy Buffett and the Clarks (regional/Pittsburgh band). I saw the Rolling Stones several years ago and Pearl Jam opened for them which was AWESOME!
Oh man.... This may take awhile, and will be all out of order, and I know I'll forget a ton...some of these were at festivals and stuff too
Foo Fighters Counting Crowes N*Sync Ziggy Marley Michael Franti and Spearhead Ben Folds Beck Rooney Phantom Planet incubus (a million times) Atmosphere Lady Gaga Soundgarden Spin Doctors DEVO Blues Traveler The Black Keys A Perfect Circle Bright Eyes Flogging Molly Grace Potter and the Nocturnals Foster the People Green Day Arcade Fire Pheonix MGMT Mavis Staples Matt & Kim Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes Mumford and Sons Blondie
ETA: Weezer, Dashboard Confessional, John Mayer, Hanson (lol), Bon Jovi
...this doesn't include any classical concerts I've attended, lol
Oh geez, I don't even know where to start. I guess I'll try chronological order (no judging for some of these!) I know I'm going to forget some.
Korn Rob Zombie Staind Limp Bizkit Run DMC Lit Shades Apart Orgy Train Vertical Horizon James Brown Live Eminem Red Hot Chili Peppers Rage Against the Machine Rusted Root Eve 6 Third Eye Blind Three Doors Down Lit Saves the Day Newfound Glory MXPX Sum 41 Good Charlotte Coheed & Cambria (multiple) Thursday Hot Rod Circuit Dashboard Confessional Jimmy Eat World (multiple) The Used Andrew WK Foo Fighters Rise Against Stone Temple Pilots The Postal Service Green Day Blink 182 Weezer AFI The Ataris The Rocking Horse Winner Thrice Phantom Planet The Damwells Me First and the Gimme Gimmes
ETA: The Cure Fuel Taking Back Sunday Sheryl Crow The Offspring Chemical Brothers Dave Matthews Band Metallica Our Lady Peace Sevendust Jewel Alkaline Trio Get Up Kids Further Seems Forever Face to Face Everclear Finch My Chemical Romance And I've gone to 3 of the American Idols tours... you can laugh at this one. I went with my good friend and we had a blast each time!
I know I've seen more, I can't think of them all right now.
I'll start with backstreet boys, and Aaron carter / a-teens (I think that was their name?)
After that I sort of matured haha and saw the following
John Mayer Guster (x4) Keller Williams (x3) Paul Simon G. Love and Special Sauce (x2) Better Than Ezra Wilco Widespread Panic (x2) Coldplay (x2) Railroad Earth Dave Matthews Nickel Creek Chris Thile 311 Ben Harper Third Eye Blind
I think I'm missing some but can't remember any more.
NKOTB was my first Steve Miller Band twice Chumbawumba (ha ha ha) Chicago Alanis Morisette twice Barenaked Ladies Counting Crows Sheryl Crowe Sixpence None the Richer Doobie Brothers Dixie Chicks Sarah McLachlan

"I was thinking about getting off on demand, but it sounds like I should be glad that I didn't"
I'll probably miss a few since some are included in going to Warped Tour for 3 years, and Lollapalooza last year.

I'm the lamest music person ever.
I used to go to festivals in NOLA sometimes, but more to drink/hang out than to see bands (...and randomly never been to Jazz Fest, ever). All I can remember is 311, Better than Ezra & Counting Crows.
The only non-festival concert I've ever been to is REO Speedwagon, Survivor & Styx with my brother and my parents.
ETA: Thanks to your lists I remembered that I've also seen Eve 6 and Sum 41.
I may have seen Guster too....love them, but I can't remember if we made it over to that stage. Like I said, I went to festivals to drink, LOL!
Some of the recent ones that I think people might know: Foo Fighters The Black Keys Metric The Gossip Them Crooked Vultures x3 Queens of the Stone Age x2
DH and I were trying to come with our lists just the other day and really had a hard time remembering. Thank goodness we saved some of the posters from the concerts. I stopped count as soon as I got into the triple digits and can barely remember the names of some of the obscure ones from decades ago. I used to go to concerts on a weekly basis and often visited musician friends on their tours. I may or may not have hung out with some of the members from bands listed above. ::coughs::

Metric and The Gossip are on my must see live list.
Milli Vanilli NKOTB (5x) The Roots Pink Lenny Kravitz Wutang Buju Banton Dixie Chicks Yellowman Kenny Chesney Erykah Badu Cypress Hill Rusted Root Brad Paisley Ziggy Marley P-Funk The Wailers (I lost count) Alan Jackson Sugarland Brooks & Dunn Eek-A-Mouse (3x) Phish Darius Rucker Toby Keith Mickey Hart & Bob Weir Tribe Called Quest Third World Marley Family Tour Rascal Flatts Bruce Hornsby The Beach Boys The Platters The Oakridge Boys Miranda Lambert
I think I've got them all covered....I'm sure I forgot a few though. Most are from festivals, so I saw them but may not have been a big fan of their music haha:
Smashing Pumpkins Garbage Veruca Salt Bush (twice) Metallica Blink 182 (twice) Sum 41 Red Hot Chili Peppers Offspring Moby Goo Goo Dolls Live Sugar Ray Orgy The Mighty Mighty Bosstones Silverchair Lit Jimmie's Chicken Shack Limp Bizkit Chemical Brothers Run DMC 311 Everclear Filter Buckcherry Powerman 5000 Fuel Mary Prankster Good Charlotte Billy Joel Rick Springfield Blue Oyster Cult
My list of bands-people-would-know is painfully small. I think it's:
Christina Aguilera (before she was Xtina, etc) American Idol (I forget which season) 30 Seconds to Mars CKY (although this one is probably a-not-so-famous band as well) Jason Mraz G Love and Special Sauce
There may be a few more that I am forgetting, but I think that's it.
Kiss Justin Timberlake Aerosmith The Rolling Stones Godsmack Taylor Swift (DDs first concert) Kelly Clarkson Elton John (3 times) New Kids on the Block - 1992 New Kids on the Block - 2009 1964 The Tribute (Beatles cover) No Doubt Maroon 5 James Taylor Pink Sherly Crow AC/DC TLC Third Eye Blind Ja Rule LL Cool J Alicia Keys
