    I've tried several times now to see Eddie Vedder and Pearl Jam shows and always seem to either have to work or miss out on tix. PJ is my favorite band. Lame. I did watch the PJ20 docu...incredible.

    The only time I've ever seen Eddie Vedder live was when Death Cab For Cutie brought him out to jam during a performance of We Looked LIke Giants.

    Oingo Boingo in 1988. The crowd was on it's feet in the Music Hall from the moment the band started playing until the final song.

    I suspect that's about to be eclipsed as I'll be at Coachella next weekend. There's no way that even the completely awesome Danny Elfman can compare with three solid days of music and mayhem.

    Aerosmith with GnR opening, right at the time GnR was breaking big...during Knockin' on Heaven's Door, Axl got into a fight with a fan, the band played the song, Axl came back and the finished it like nothing happened.

    Also, Aerosmith happened to play alot of Rocks stuff that night, so very rare


    best concern Ive seen in last 10 years was Alter Bridge. Mind blowing.

    I'm not sure if I'm embarrssed by this or not, but by far the most fun I've ever had at a gig was Insane Clown Posse in Manchester 2007!

    BEST was Avenged Sevenfold... obviously. :smile:
