I listen to a concert.

I watch a concert.

Which one is acceptable?
  

Top answer

You can listen to a concert when you're listening to a CD. You can watch a concert on the TV (the sound can be optionally turned down/off) In the real thing you need both sound and image. Why not "I've been to a concert"?

I don't see Anne around just now.

Yes. "I went to a concert" would be just lovely!
