    Woodstock '94 with Nine Inch Nails being one of the highlights of that.

    Other favorites are The Grateful Dead (with '91 being first big show), The Stones, CSN&Y, Foo Fighters, Metallica, Smashing Pumpkins, more Nine Inch Nails. I've been to lots of shows and have rarely been disappointed.

    Summer Sanitarium at Pontiac Silver Dome in 2003 - Linkin Park, Mudvayne, Metallica

    Music as a Weapon 1 2001 at Delta Plex - Three Days Grace, Disturbed, Drowning Pool, Adema

    ~2008 Royal Oak Theatre - Sevendust and Mudvayne

    Sevendust at a local fair grounds in 2011

    2 Dollar Bill show at Michigan Theater in Detroit in 2003, Linkin Park Street team show. Got to meet the band, that was probably the best.

    Tough question! There are too many to choose from!

    I've seen Metallica twice, the first time on the St Anger tour when I was 15, and the second (and better show) was 2012 in Edmonton. The stage show was incredible, and the music was amazing! Not one person sat down for that show.

    Avenged Sevenfold and the whole Uproar show in 2011 was phenomenal. A7X always has an amazing stage show, and they are an INCREDIBLE live band.

    Rock Allegiance last year (HIM, Volbeat, Airbourne and All That Remains) was incredible too! Volbeat are so good live, I could see them a hundred times and never get bored.

    A few guys and myself drove down to Philly, I think it was 1981 to see the Rolling Stones with Journey and George Thorogood. What a wild weekend that was. I have seen better bands but that was probably the best concert that I went to. Seeing Boston in the Boston Garden was my first concert and I still think J Geils put on some of the best shows, especially in the Garden.

    so many to choose from. But it's a toss between The Dropkick Murphys concert I went to last year and The Black Keys/Foo Fighters the year before. I rocked my face off at both. Def need to go to some concerts this year.



    I've seen the Dropkick Murphys!! they were ace

    Ton to choose from but Zac Brown Band, and it's not even close. Seriously deadly cover of Enter Sandman

    I've seen ZBB a few times and they never disappoint. Their show on New Year's Eve in Detroit last year was definitely one of the best concerts I've ever been to.

    AC/DC in 2008 at the Skydome in Toronto - my fave band of all time. Angus's solo was unreal.

    Tom Petty in the Detroit area - I think it was 2007. I've seen him twice, but Stevie Nicks was the "suprise guest" at this show and it was awesome.

    Kenny Chesney - in Detroit every year he tours. The best year so far was with Zac Brown.


    Aaand really hoping to see Garth Brooks when he tours this year! I have no doubt it will be epic.

    Musically: Willie Nelson. Went for around three hours with almost no breaks.

    All-over entertainment: Flaming Lips. They are an orgasm of sight and sound live.

    I also remember Floyd as being decent but we had seats in the bleeds behind some dude who looked like he was hitting a crack pipe :huh:

    barenaked ladies (1996 or 97) Niagara University. super small crowd and it was perfect. out of all the times i have seen them, this was by far the best.
    How could I forget them? I've seen them at least three times and they were always great...of course it was still the Steven Page era. I don't know that I'd care to see the current lineup...

    Jimi Hendrix, that should date me.
    Was it the tour where he opened for the Monkees? (Now that just dated ME....)

    I went to see Ray Lamontagne and it was fantastic. He had Brandie Carlisle (sp?) and The Secret Sisters opening for him. It was an outside venue and the weather was perfect.
