....just wondering what has been the best show you have ever attended. For me I would have to choose AC/DC at far as performance goes but for a complete show with pyrotechnics and light show would have to be RUSH.
 
I never been to many concerts. I seen Joan Jett after her comeback and she still rocked the place - thinking mid 90's.
 
Tom Petty at the Pacific Amphitheater. He played for 2 hours and then came out of an encore and played the Clashes "Should I stay or should I go". The crowd rocked and he played for another hour. Left with smoking hot barbie too.
 
Lots of favorites.
Led Zeppelin, Ten Years After, Mountain, Uriah Heep, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Allman Brothers, Johnny Winter, Blue Oyster Cult, Eagles. Double Brothers, Kinks, Grateful Dead, Yes, ZZ Top, Rod Stewart, Heart, Beach Boys, Lynrd Skynrd, Bad Company. Alice Cooper, Steve Miller Band, Savoy Brown, Eric Clapton.....
I could go on and on. I've had some crappy concerts. But most have been excellent.

Sammy Hagar at summerfest... a real party atmosphere... great scenery

or

KMFDM it was Halloween night... a real freak show... some chick in a nun costume was fucking the devil against the wall in the back corner..lol
 
So many great ones. One that stands out is Maiden / Priest on the Killers (Paul DiAnno on Vox) and Point of Entry tours, back in 1981 or so, 7th row in small Orpheum Theater in Boston. I was 15,and just blown away. Went on to see them both at least 10 times more, but at that age and time, mind blowing. And of course my 1st show ever (favorite band of all-time as well) Molly Hatchet - 1981 Boston Garden (Kansas opened up).
 
Nine Inch Nails downward spiral tour was amazing. Slayer is always the most violent thing ever. I saw The Weeknd last summer and have to say he was the best non-metal concert I've ever seen
 
Alice Cooper has been one of the best by far, back in the 80's. AC/DC is always an epic show, seen Crue probably six times and never disappointed.

I've seen Pink Floyd twice. Animals then Comfortably Numb tours. Awesome music and stage shows.
Moto, you should have seen Alice Cooper back in the early 70's. His show was freaking sick!
Best lazer light show back when it was new was Blue Oyster Cult, Godzilla tour.
 
Emerson, Lake and Palmer, Yale Bowl July 1974. Outside concert, excellent music, tripping on window pane acid and soaking in the sun. Developed 2nd degree sunburn as did many else there that day. One of the best I have seen, saw a lot of old rock band concerts from the 70's and early 80's and remember a few.

Thanks for making me feel a little younger...
 
My daughter took me to see Roger Waters last year. That was the best concert I had every seen. A lot of visuals. Large screen over head running down the center of the arena. There was a large section in the back of the arena with about 10 workers running computers and lighting. That really put a lot into the production.
 
Pantera
Suicidal Tendencies
Aerosmith
Van Halen
David Allen Coe
Merle Haggard
Chris Isaak
Don WIlliams
Bellamy Brothers
White Zombie
Ozzy
Black Sabbath
Marilyn Manson

...off the top of my head.
