Best Concert(s) You've Been To

[OverTaker]

The best i've seen LIVE, and I'm sure alot of people agree are AC/DC, Ozzy at Ozzfest, and Motley Crue. NEXT

[JJ Moore]

umm...... Isis were great last year, Megadeth & Testament in Dubai, Saudi Arabia earlier this year, ummmm GnR at the Hammersmith Odeon last week...

Alice In Chains and Opeth last week at Download as well as Metallica *Full Master of Puppets Album played*, GnR (Izzy and Sebastian Bach on stage with them) Strapping Young Lad were immense aswell!

Kreator / Dark Tranquiltiy were great last year.

So many good gig's!

[The Mask]

mad capsule markets was insane.

james brown is up there too for being super fucking cool and awesome :heart:

[Sickboy]

If we don't count festivals, then I would have to say Mortiis's gig 1,5 years ago was just great.

[El Vaquero de Infierno]

Nickel Creek.

Never seen a band so comfortable up on the stage, and that came through in the performance.

[mitchables]

Brand New and Coheed and Cambria both put on amazing shows when I saw them.

[JJ Moore]

james brown is up there too for being super fucking cool and awesome :heart:

Amen to that, Summer 2004 :(

[FakeLaser]

Brand New
Glassjaw
Beastie Boys
Thursday

[weather vane]

Motley Crue
Alice Cooper
Journey

[Kris P Lettus]

Beastie Boys, RUN DMC, and Metallica in that order..

[FakeLaser]

Word, the Beastie Boys are incredible in concert. I'm only a moderate fan of theirs but holy crap.

[samichna]

Probably Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band.

[loopydate]

"Weird Al" Yankovic

[Zen v.W.o.]

Pearl Jam
Matthew Good Band
Matt Good solo
Smashing Pumpkins
Live
Foo Fighters

[Arashi Kage]

Judas Priest United Tour 2004 - with Slayer
Judas Priest Angel of Retribution Tour 2005 - with Queensryche

I took my older cousin with me to both shows, and after the 2004 show, he said that Priest was the best show he'd ever seen, better than Aerosmith, Foo Fighters, Smashing Pumpkins, and I forget what other shows he named. The thing is, he's not really into metal, he's into alternative - Pumpkins, Radiohead type stuff, and he was blown away by Priest.

[Arnold HamNegger]

-Slayer
-AC/DC
(I think every new band should have to see AC/DC live before they're ever allowed to perform on tour.)
-Metallica
-Multiple Ozzfests
-Vince Neil at the HOB in Hollywood for nestalgia
(Motley is a sore subject with me...so SO beyond pissed off and disappointed that I never got to see them last year. I saw them in San Diego without Tommy on drums, so I don't even count that. Still a kick ass show though.)
-Sevendust
-I've seen alot of kickass shows in smaller club venues like The Whisky, The Roxy, The Palladium, etc. in Hollywood. In some ways I like that better than stadium shows. Bands include: Buckcherry, Hed pe, Kittie, Linkin Park, Mudvayne, Disturbed, Slipknot, Killswitch Engage, Spineshank, Fear Factory, etc. to name a few.

And finally, the greatest concert I've ever seen...hands down is Pantera, Anthrax and Coal Chamber. Fucking insane. I feel fortunate that I got to see Dime perform live. The intensity of a Pantera show is unlike anything I've ever experienced...or probably ever will.

[D Mac]

Metallica with special guests Godsmack.:heart: :heart: :heart: :heart:

[FakeLaser]

Going to see Roger Waters in September, that might take it.

[Skippord]

KISS

[Kid Robb]

We don't get much big name stuff out here.

Kanye West is the best I've seen. His show was amazing from start to finish.

For something different - Michael Buble - his show was brilliant, the music was done perfectly and he was an awesome entertainer.

[Downunder]

Split Enz last night FUCKING AWESOME!!!!!!

Ultra Spin 10 - Rank 1, Yoji Biomehanika, Guy Ornadel, Brad Goldfinger, Dave Raplh

Hopesfall in 2002 was a blast.

[Skippord]

If I can get tickets to Rob Zombie I will piss myself

[ron the dial]

Children of Bodom, Morrissey, and Twiztid.

[ron the dial]

Hopesfall in 2002 was a blast.

[road doggy dogg]

Ask me on June 30th <3

[Gertner]

Ad Ferry Corsten to my list of best concerts. He fucking killed it this past sunday

[Mike the Metal Ed]

For stage show, Rammstein at the Nottingham Arena, music wise, Motörhead at the DeMontfort Hall last year. Felt like I'd had the shit kicked out of me, in a happy, buzzy way.

[Lara Emily]

The headline show at FolkFest Ottawa a few years back which included both Dar Williams and Tegan and Sara.

[ct2k]

Best bands:

Motorhead
Anthrax
Opeth

[Cactus Sid]

Pixies, far and away from anyone else (2nd time was better than the 1st)

[The Greater Power]

I saw:

Steriogram
Billy Talent
Akaline Trio
Sum 41

all at Summefest in 2003 one right after the other. It was great.

[OverTaker]

Any band you like listening to on radio, cd, itunes, whatever. Go see em' LIVE! It's a helluva show.

[The Gooch]

Easily the best was Radiohead in a club in London, Ontario for their "The Bends" tour. Perhaps 300-500 people at the show with a $10 pricetag.

Mötley Crüe last February from the second row. Right in front of Nikki's mic stand. He saluted me and my girl which was very cool.

Radiohead on their "OK Computer" tour.

Van Halen. 11 minute Eddie guitar solo + 7 minute Alex drum solo = sweetness.

Blue Rodeo. Better live band than studio. One of the best bands nobody knows about except us Canucks.

Cheap Trick. Musically pretty fucking amazing.

The Cult. My first wow-I-can't-believe-I'm-actually-seeing-these-guys concert.

Billy Idol. Saw him twice and loved both shows. Great performer and Steve Stevens is incredible. The second best guitar solo I've ever seen live after Eddie VH.

[Skippord]

Holy shit now its Rob Zombie and Godsmack

[KingofOldSchool]

Pearl Jam
My Morning Jacket
Jason Mraz (yes, i said it)

[LK]

Without a doubt Radiohead on the Hail to the Thief tour. Included a rare playing of Creep and just an amazing night.

[Gertner]

Got an upcoming show featuring Armin Van Buuren, Ferry Corsten, Junkie XL, Desyn Masiello and Marcel Woods, so we may have a a new clubhouse leader

[packt up]

Pink Floyd Live 8

Second place Radiohead Newcastle 2003

Third place Coldplay V Festival 2003

[bopeep]

....yeah -- i agree, people are basically getting sick of the same old rock/hip-hop/r&b bullsh*t..... and there is just this big upsurge from a new style coming out of Europe -- best place i've found it so far is a compilation series called 'euro club hits' on itunes -- or check this link: http://electricfilebox.com/tracks

:naughty: :lol: :| :cool:

[Indifferent Clox]

Weezer
Ben Kweller
Incubus

[Gonzo]

Method Man

He rolled with Inspectah Deck, Masta Killah and Streetlife. Method Man is the most live motha fucka you will ever have the opportunity to see. If you ever get the chance just go see him, you will understand.

[Ogen]

Oasis, The Prodigy, Armin Van Buren, Arctic Monkeys would all be up there I suppose.

[thedamndest]

Van Halen (with Sammy and Dave)
Tool
Iron Maiden

with honorable mention to Alice Cooper

[BCWWF]

Klaxons. The Cribs were really fun too.

[Blue Demon]

For me:

U2
Rolling Stones
Motorhead
Smashing Pumpkins
The Tragically Hip

I've seen quite a few shows, but these come to mind.

[Jeritron]

Radiohead - Hail To The Thief tour
Madison Square Garden NYC, NY

end of story

[mitchables]

Minus the Bear.

Holy shit, I will never forget that show as long as I live.

[El Fangel]

Concerts I have gone to in order of when I saw them

Great Big Sea - Seen them when I was like 10-12, Cousin scored 10 free tickets :)

Canada Day on The Hill 07 - State of Shock, Default, Hedley, Finger Eleven, Daughtry, Staind, Nickelback

Ozzy Osbourne - Had a up and comer band named In The Moment that opened, Rob Zombie bailed on him though

Gigantour - High on Fire, Job For A Cowboy, Children of Bodom, In Flames, Megadeth

will be going to see the Eagles this summer (Taking my dad, he is a diehard fan)

Overall, I have to say the Canada Day one was the best, I liked all but one band, I knew alot of the songs, and the build-up was awesome, plus $60 for 7 bands, and only 10 feet from the stage was fucking awesome

Next was Ozzy, that dude is almost 60, and he still has it

Gigantour - In Flames stole that show IMO, it was all fucking awesome, COB played Angels dont kill, In Flames played Trigger, End of Things, Come Clarity, Only For The Weak, and Take This Life, the place fucking shook.

Then Great Big Sea, dont remember much, but they were all kinda cool, got to meet the lead singer, he was pretty cool.

[Road Warrior]

Pantera
Killswitch Engage
Type O Negative
Fear Factory
STP- getting ready to see them again as they are playing Carb Day at the Indy 500 and I now live there.
