    Sounds awesome!!!
    State College......not too terribly far away from me!
    Tough question, but I'd have to say 'Type O Negative' on Halloween at the Crow Bar in State College PA. Small venue, in your face kind of show, best band to see on Halloween.

    Taylor Swift 2011 because I surprised my 8 year old daughter with tickets, didn't tell her where we were going until we were almost there, then I gave her the tickets, the look on her face when Taylor swift came on stage was priceless!! She started bawling!! Def. the best concert ever!

    Ozzfest 2002. Absolutely amazing! I went with my stepmother at the time, and we had backstage passes. I met Jonathan Davis from Korn, and Zakk Wylde. I will never, EVER forget that day. Seeing Ozzy Osbourne on stage was like witnessing the second coming of Jesus...

    Sting circa 1988 -- I saw him twice that year, once in Canada and once in Spain. Both concerts were outstanding. Runner up would be Chris De Burg any of the 3 times I've seen him. I'm no longer a fan but man that guy put on a show!

    Best Concert Lately: Thievery Corporation and Massive Attack. Don't miss it if they're in your town!

    Best Concert of All Time: My very first - told my mom we were staying with "Tracy" and told Tracy's mom we were staying with "Shelly" In truth, Tracy's big sister drove all of us up to the Big City where we all got in to see Motley Crue and Ozzy Osborne live.

    F.Yeah!!!!!!!

    Mine would have to be Queens of the Stone Age on Songs for the deaf tour, 2002- Leeds Uni. It was the sex!

    but Deftones last year was also pretty amazing, and NIN in Manchester 2009 supported by Janes Addiction.

    Oingo Boingo - 1994 at the Warfield. 3.5 hours - no breaks - no opening band - pure Danny Elfman genius.

    A close second was Enit Festival at Bill Graham Auditorium - 1998 - with Janes Addiction's first reuinion show. But I don't remember large chunks of it. I knew there were lots of "things" and I came home with henna'd all over :bigsmile:
