    Elliott Smith at the Showbox in Seattle

    :heart: !!!!!

    Strange, as I've been listening to his songs all morning.

    Total opposite spectrum of music, but the best show I've been to was MSI at a small club, maybe 100 fans at the venue. More personable that way, and I got to touch Urine's shoe :D

    Michael Franti and Spearhead was absolutely incredible! He was so interactive and in the audience a lot and so much fun. Crazy fun hippy party.

    I just saw him on Friday and it was probably the most fun I've ever had at a show. Dispatch at Red Rocks last summer is definitely in my top 5. Also Willie Nelson the many times I've seen him.

    July 12th, 2003 - Summer Sanitarium Tour at Veterans Stadium (RIP) in Philadelphia

    >Metallica
    >Limp Bizkit
    >Linkin Park
    >Deftones
    >Mudvayne
    I LOVE Deftones!!!!
    So green with envy!!!

    It was a fantastic show! Metallica put on an amazing show but between Linkin Park and Limp Bizkit, i don't know who put on the absolute best show of all bands. A great night for sure.

    Rammstein! They were in my neck of the woods about a month ago, and it was insane. Tickets are pricey, but 100% worth it - I'd see them again any day.

    Honorable mentions go to: Alice in Chains, Rise Against, and Volbeat. :-)

    I won concert tickets to a Taylor Swift concert last September. Got pit passes. I was RIGHTTHERE by the stage.
    Ugh. It was so freakin' awesome. I had post-concert depression for like a month after that.

    Also Flight 206 with Fall Out Boy. You could only win passes and I won them 3 days after my 18th birthday. It was great, except that Chicago had a major snowstorm and the concert was delayed a good 3 hours. Last time I saw them live before they went on "hiatus." :sad:

    Metallica by far.

    In a distant second is Bruce Springsteen.

    Elton John.
    My best friend took me and we had awesome seats. I could see the patterns stitched into his shoes, we were so close.

    I can't narrow it down to one ;)

    Muse, Foo Fighters, Sunny Day Real Estate, The Myriad, and the Smashing Pumpkins were all incredible!

    Some of my favorite musicians though... ones I have seen multiple concerts of, and will ALWAYS jump at the chance to see: 30 seconds To Mars, OURS/Jimmy Gnecco, Lovedrug, The Violet Burning..... EVERY concert by any of them has been amazing..... Also a musician who has not been out there for awhile but is currently recording... Brian McSweeney formerly of the bands Matthew and Seven Day Jesus. One of my favorite voices, from way back.
