    This one is tough!

    If I had to choose, it'd probably be either Pearl Jam in 2002 or Staind in 2001. Both shows were incredible and worth every penny out of my poor college student budget. :drinker:

    Last year, just before Finals, the very talented Casting Crowns came to us in Lubbock, TX, to promote their latest project, Thrive (and play all of their standbys). in the process, they managed to remove all of my pre-test stress! The night was perfect, except that fans didn't get to meet the band like some concerts allow.

    It's a toss-up between:

    Iron Maiden (December 1986)
    Genesis (May 1987)
    Pink Floyd (November 1987)
    Pink Floyd (May 1988)
    Robert Plant (June 1988)
    GN'R (December 1991)
    Faith No More/Metallica/GN'R (Summer 1992)
    Rush (Mid-1990s, multiple times)
    Creed (May 2000)
    Matchbox 20 (Fall 2003)
    Barenaked Ladies (Spring 2004)
    AC/DC (May 2009)

    If I had to pick one

    Propaghandi

    It was a small venue, and they hardly ever tour the US so I was lucky I caught the show.

    Actually, 1991 Huey Lewis and the News free concert at the beach. Del Mar Beach, Camp Pendleton ca. It was a lot of fun.

    I saw them a couple of times in the late 80's/early 90's. They put on a great show.

    For the best concert: I'd have to say Pink Floyd when I was in college, or CSN&Y outdoors.

    Garth Brooks or Reba McEntire later in life.


    Last great show for me was Carole King and James Taylor...in St. Paul, MN
