    Paul McCartney - Safeco Field in Seattle, June 2013. This was an AMAZING 3 hours, and when all the living members of Nirvana came out on stage and played several songs with him at the end? Well, I about lost it.

    Runners up: Ringo Starr's All Starr Band (totally fun, Chateau Ste Michelle in 2012), Roger Waters doing The Wall (Tacoma Dome in 2010 then Rose Arena in 2012).

    I love music and concerts.

    Metallica & Ted Nugent, Detroit NYE 1999~>2000
    I was at this show too (at the Silverdome)....Kid Rock was the first act (and he's always great)

    Way too many shows to choose from, but the top older shows are the Eagles (Hell Freezes Over tour) and a small Crosby Stills & Nash show around 1999 or so.

    I also saw P!NK twice last year, and she really puts on a great show!

    I also went to Black Sabbath (with Ozzy) last summer, and that was pretty cool,....he sounded great :smokin:

    Creedence Clearwater Revival in 1969, Booker T & the MGs opening

    Led Zeppelin - 1972 so close Jimmy Page could hit with his bow (almost!)

    Elton John - 1974 Goodbye Yellow Brick Road tour

    Supertramp - 1975 Crisis? What Crisis? tour

    Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band - 1978 Still the highest energy show I've ever seen and I would say was the 'best'.

    Almost any Rolling Stones or Springsteen or Steve Earle show

    John Mellencamp - 1987 The Lonesome Jubilee tour

    Pearl Jam - 2000

    And a many many others....

    Living in Adelaide, South Australia, not much comes here other then small bands and if someone big does come here it's usually a dumed down show due to us only having 1 medium sized venue other then an outside stadium that is small in comparison to other states and countries.

    the New Zealand based Pink Floyd Experience toured here 3 times,. first time they played The Dark Side of The Moon and the second time The Wall both in there entirety including all the theatrics and props was the closest thing to Pink Floyd you could get without seeing the originals. The third time they toured however it was crap compared to the other 2 times

    next on the list was Van Halen which toured Australia in the mid or late 90's with Gary Cherone fronting the band, he was ok but the rest of them were spot on and it was a very entertaining show.

    I woulda mentioned Metallica but both times they came here the audio wasn't good and they didn't seem to give a ****, otherwise i am a Metallica fan through and through.
