    Kenny Wayne Shepherd - 2001 (or 2000, can't remember)
    Moby - 1998 (yes, the techno guy...man is one of the performers I've ever seen, he can work the stage)
    Linkin Park - 1999 (pre-Hybrid Theory release...saw them twice after that and they lost an edge)
    AFI & Distillers - 2000 (same show, both excellent!)
    Local H - 1996 (when the original two were still together)

    California Jam 1974 was quite an event. Loved it for the party.

    But the best was either ZZ Top, Edgar and Johnny Winter, Rory Gallagher in 1976, or, Steve Miller two years ago.

    I've been to very few concerts but the best of them was definitely Marilyn Manson. He is an amazing showman- totally connected with the crowd, huge energy.

    Close seconds is a tie between Foo Fights, Pearl Jam, and Weezer.

    Metallic when they were touring for the "Load" Album, with an opening by Day of the New. BEST CONCERT EVER.

    Oh...


    And..

    Iron Maiden with Dream Theatre as an opening act.

    Lady Gaga has to top them all for me...Aerosmith and even Elton John can't top her (and I loved both of them live, too!). Sang every note live, sooo much crowd interaction between songs, crazy sets and outfits, best concert ever.

    Definitely the Dixie Chicks top of the world shows (went to 7 of them all over the country and went backstage several times). Great, great musicians and ladies -- sound exactly like their CD's -- no need for lip-syncing and auto-tune.

    Fortunately, I've worked for a radio station as a photographer and saw a large variety of concerts -- some of the best have been Sugarland, Miranda Lambert (before this year.. wasn't too thrilled with the last concert), Tom Petty, P!NK, and even, yes, N'Sync.

    Getting to see Neil Diamond and Coldplay this year - very excited.

    I fell asleep at a Billy Joel concert in Orlando in 1991. (That was not the best.)

    I get the most enjoyment from small local artists at small local venues.
