    Prince!!! Nothing more needs to be said. The Purple One is a phenomenal performer, showman and musician.

    Janet Jackson during her hey day was amazing too. I saw the Velvet Rope show at Madison Square Garden. Loved it. So wish I could've seen her brother. That would have been a show to remember

    QUEEN. back in late 70's. It was a winter snowy storm night. They performed a three hour set with no lead in band. Freddy Mercury was fantastic. Nothing has ever been able to top it. By a twist of fate, my friend and I managed to get in early and got to see the sound check. The whole night was magical.

    I can't pick one - my first Conor Oberst concert when I was 20 - the first time I saw Sigur Ros when I was 21 and the only time I saw Royksopp when I was 21.

    Man, I rocked then.

    Cypress Hill when I was in high-school. The whole audience was high, weed-smoke in the air and I met B-Real and got his autograph.

    The Flaming Lips, hands down. I usually prefer outdoor venues with a mellow vibe, but these guys were intense and amazing- they put on a show like no other band I've ever seen; combined with their musical creativity, it was just a mind-blowing experience.

    If you're at all familiar with (and like!) their music, I highly recommend you see them live. You won't be disappointed.

    I have been to a lot of concerts in my lifetime so far!

    One of the most memorable ones for me was Poison in 2008! Yes, Poison, the rock band from the 80's. I felt like an odd one out cause I was in my teens and everyone else was in their 30's-40's .....haha! Some lady sitting beside me was this old 80's rocker chick and she kept spilling beer on me, but it was fun!

    And my favourite one was seeing Stone Sour and Evanescence live back in 2006 I believe. It was a pretty good time!
  • Kiss in 98 - Motley Crue in 2012. I saw Sabbath awhile back but shamefully I was too intoxicated to remember much. I bet it would rank up there. Hollywood Undead in 2012.

    I go to a ton of concerts but seeing Roger Waters perform Darkside of the Moon and the Wall are two of my favorites. Tom petty always puts on a good show and Dave Matthews Band. John Butler Trio is great live too
