    I'm probably older than most of you, but definitely Billy Joel :)

    I loved seeing Apocalyptica! AMAZING performers!!

    I always loved seeing Shinedown... became a fan of In This Moment once I saw them in concert - great show!

    DMB was great too - going to see them again in a week!

    Will be seeing Billy Joel in a week as well... I heard his shows are pretty fantastic, too!

    Ozzfest 2001. Disturbed, Slipknot, Manson, Linkin Park, and Sabbath were all awesome.

    You can tell I'm an old broad. Josh Groban a couple of years ago is one. I had seats in the middle of an arena in front of what I thought was power equipment behind a curtain. It turned out he performed from two stages, one in front and one in the middle. At one point I was less than a foot from him when he went down the aisle. I was in heaven. The other was Harry Connick Jr. last year. I had enjoyed his albums, but never seen him live. He's so multi-talented, a real showman.

    June 28th 2002. Rush Vapor Trails Tour. Their first tour (and album) after almost 6 years of downtime and speculation that they wouldn't record or tour again after Neil (the drummer) lost his daughter (car crash) and wife (cancer) in a one year period. A few friends and I made the trip from New Orleans to Hartford, Connecticut to see the opening show on the tour.

    Runners up:
    July 16 2012. Iron Maiden w/ Alice Cooper. Maiden England tour. First concert for my 6yo (at the time) metal head son.
    August 29, 1992. Metallica, Guns -n- Roses, Faith No More. Metallica brought the Super Dome down in New Orleans.
    June 17, 2003. ZZ Top & Ted Nugent. For just three guys, ZZ Top put on a show that rivals a Rush concert.
    January 28, 1984. Van Halen 1984 tour. Didn't know it at the time, but this was Roth's last tour (until he came back to the abomination that is Van Halen now)

    Rammstein put on an amazing show, so that's my favourite for sheer spectacle. However, the concerts I have enjoyed the most are when I've seen Thunder. No props,no spectacular set pieces just good old fashioned rock and roll blasted out full belt. Love them.

    I am not a huge fan of Tori Amos to be honest, and never was a superfan...but I saw her in concert a few times back in the 90's and her show Nov 4, 1996 (I remember because my best friend and I went the day after my 20th birthday) was the BEST concert I have ever attended. It was just amazing. Easily ten times better than any other concert I've experienced!!

    It's weird for me to admit that as someone who has attended shows by many other great bands/artists, when I am not even a huge fan of hers. But it's definitely true.

    Eric Clapton in about 1990, half a dozen rows back at center stage, fantastic show.
