    I have NO shame!!

    My first concert was New Kids on the Block at age 16. Tore up my jeans for that.

    Then my kids surprised me with tickets to their reunion concert 4 years ago. Who was their opening act? Some new girl they discovered in a techno bar..by the name of Lady Gaga.

    Seeing them at the reunion took me back to 16!! Amazing time all around..except my poor husband suffered through the second concert with me. What a champ!

    I dont have an absolute fave. But my tops are:

    *Pink Floyd Division Bell tour...1994 I believe at techwood. LOVED IT!
    *Nirvana Inutero tour, last show in Atl before Kurt died
    *NIN Downward Spiral tour 1994 Front row. Marilyn Manson opened...nobody knew who he was and was in the Lobby at intermission with his band with no one approaching them.
    *Lenny Kravitz in 1997...Was a private concert with a 75 head audience. Phenominal show! Fell in love with his drummer Cindy Blackman that night :love:

    I have been to a LOT of concerts, but so far my favorites have always been Weird Al concerts. The man really knows how to put on a show, even in smaller venues. Panic! At the Disco also puts on an amazing show. It was especially fun the last time I saw them because I got all dressed up in a Steampunk outfit, and got to meet the band afterwards. :)

    U2 - too many to count... but Joshua Tree being the first would be the best.
    Back in the day... Lenny Kravitz and Ziggy Marley (seperately) at really small venues. Both were great concerts.

    FLOGGING MOLLY! All 5 times :bigsmile: in AC - house of blues
    The Walkmen - in Boston - back in 2002

    YES! They are so fun! Seen them at Warped Tour!

    For me it's definately gotta be Dream Theater, Fates Warning, and Queensryche in Boston..it was an outdoor concert, beautiful warm evening... friggan sweet.

    Close second....Korn/Linkin Park/Staind show here in NH.

    I've seen them a few times and it is always such a blast!

    My favorite might have been Dispatch this summer at Red Rocks. Pink Floyd Division Bell was pretty amazing at Mile High back in the 90's.

    No contest - Rammstein!!!!!! No one approaches the live show of Rammstein with the fire and theatrics. They are a must see!!!!

    RAMMSTEIN!

    I second this. I saw them in Chicago last spring, and will be seeing them again in Chicago and Detroit this spring. Aside from the fact that I adore them as artists, I also think they put on one heck of a show.

    Probably bands that most won't even know. Those are the best to me though :)

    The Birthday Massacre- All 5 times! They are so sweet and talk to every fan after the show
    The Cure- It was just magical
    Interpol- mesmerizing. like an audible drug
    Nine Inch Nails- the first time, when they were actually still into it. last time they disappointed
    VNV Nation- the place was packed and it was an awesome show.
    Blue October- I cried the first time. Justin was still in the right frame of mind. the new album sucks though :(

    There are PLENTY more. I am a concert *kitten* :)
