    This is like asking which of my kids I love the most. Just can't answer it.

    Top 3
    Front row to Jimmy Buffett.
    Roger Waters performing The Wall
    Billy Joel/ Elton John

    I could go on and on.

    I've been to very few BAD concerts, but I have to say I would pay a LOT of money to see Muse or Fleetwood Mac again!!! Muse sounds better live than on their albums - certainly an accomplishment! With Fleetwood Mac it's more about the emotion that you can see/hear as they perform their old songs, it's very moving. And despite being in their 60s, they still sound fantastic!

    I've been to hundreds of concerts, from mainstream bands like "Ozzy, Moterhead, Danzig, Pantera" but some of the best bands I have ever seen was in the NY hardcore scene.. This best concerts I been to was in the 90's at cbgb's and coney island high in NYC, one show that will stay with me forever was Mindset, Shutdown at coney island high, this show was like 98...

    Totally agree. I haven't seen Fleetwood Mac live (I'm always afraid to buy tickets in case Stevie splits mid tour), though we have the DVD of The Dance and I love the end of Landslide when she and Linsday thank each other. Lots of history there. As an aside, I have had the pleasure of seeing Stevie live and she is A-MAZ-ING. I love that woman!

    I have three:

    3. Midnite @ Vets Hall in Santa Cruz circa 2004. This was the first reggae show I've ever been to and the first time I ever heard the band. Fell in LOVE and have been a fan ever since. Pretty much have stalked them all over California...

    2. Manu Chau @ Warfield in San Francisco circa 2010. This guy is one of my favorite artists EVER. He rarely tours the states and I was able to get a ticket before the show sold out....

    1. Roger Waters The Wall @ AT&T Park San Francisco circa 2 months ago. Epic....simply EPIC....

    Either KISS, Rob Zombie, or Trans-Siberian Orchestra

    Though I'm seeing Iron Maiden and Alice Cooper at the end of the month so I'm pretty sure that'll go up to #1

    I have seen Rush over 30 times. Favorites have been the R-30 Tour in 2004 or the 1978 Tour of The Hemispheres.

    This is a tough one! My favorite bands to see have been Tool, Sevendust, and NIN. I'm going to go with Tool at Ozzfest in 98 because watching Maynard strip onstage was good fun and Sevendust earlier the same year because Morgan Rose came outside before the show and hung out with us fans

    Tough, been to many great ones. Most memorable ones would be the Pogues about 10 years ago and Bob Dylan last year. Great stuff. I have seen BD many times but last year he nailed it!!

    I love Lyle Lovett live (right?!)

    That's probably because Lyle Lovett is AWESOME!! I saw him at the John T. Floore Country Store in San Antonio in... 2007 ? I can't imagine a more perfect place to see Lyle Lovett. When they did "That's Right (You're Not From Texas)" people went nuts. Such a good time!
