Every Dead show I attended.

Pink Floyd in the 'Shoe and Rolling Stones in the 'Shoe.

Pink Floyd in Sun Devil Stadium

Steve Winwood and Traffic at Desert Sky Pavilion.

Jimmy Page and Robert Plant at Gund Arena.

The Who at Gund Arena.

Stones at the shoe (with Blues Traveler) was my daughter's first concert ever. She was about 8 weeks old. We sat outside the shoe, actually. She loved it. (That is, she slept.) :p

Lots of Metallica fans! <3

They just so happen to be my favorite performance as well. Actually it's a tie.

I went to the Metallica/San Fransisco Symphony show in Berkeley in 2001 (I think) It was AMAZING to be there. The DVD and the CD from the show do NOT do it justice. The music stands were dark until halfway through "Call of Ktulu" and when they lit up it gave me chills!

Also, 2 years ago, I went to Metallica at Thomas and Mack here in Vegas. They played with Godsmack. And NFBuck is correct Godsmack live is off the hook. They damn near stole the show, and their drummer is really fun to watch.

There's nothing like live music. Best live performance I've attended. In order.

1. Celine Dion in Vegas. Took wife to Vegas for her B-Day. $150 ticket.
Fantastic performer, incredible singer, sang every word, talked to the audience. A must see.

2. Bruce Cockburn in Santa Fe at Lensic Theatre, Rocked the house!
He did 15 songs, used 15 diferent guitars!
Bruce Cockburn At Taos Solar Music Fest, solo acoustic. Still amazing.

3. Arlo Guthrie Jr. at Taos Community Auditorium. Wonderful performer and singer.

This may be the gayest post I've ever read on Buckeyeplanet and that's saying something..

As if Celine Dion isn't gay enough, you reference a guy whose last name is Cockburn.

:slappy:
