    Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers 1981 tour! Unbelievably hands down the one that surprised me the most and all the other bands that followed still did not put on a show like that--it wasn't about all the lights and video displays and showy stuff--his sound was fabulous it was purely music! The sound was incredible!

    Elton John, Philadelphia 2013

    Of all the bands I've seen, he rocked the hardest, and that includes metal bands like Metallica. That dude can ****ing bring it.

    Coheed and Cambria was amazing in January 2009, I think it was. Great concert!
    I saw Coheed & Cambria in 2010 on their U.S. tour with Porcupine Tree in support and that show was one of the best I've ever seen.

    Not a concert more like a meet and greet, mostly just because of how shocked I was at the outcome.

    This was back when One Direction was first starting out, my friend forced me to go to the mall in another state for their meet and greet. So we get up at 5am to be the first ones at the mall, since they're only letting the first 600 people meet the group.

    We get there at around 6:45, 15 minutes before the mall is supposed to even open and we see the parking lot PACKED with cars. Turns out they had to open the mall early because there was so much traffic outside of cars just circling the mall waiting to get in.

    Over 11,000 people showed up before the gates even opened. Yeah we didn't get to meet them but we got to see them from pretty close, this was how many people showed up in that tiny mall.

    I have 3 favorites, in no particular order. 1st Ozzfest 1998, outdoor venue and Tool played along with several other great bands. Partly my favorite cuz I was 15 years old and was my first major concert. 2nd was all other 3 times I've seen Tool, and 3rd is Pink.
