I've only been to a few concerts, but the standouts were U2, Dave Matthews Band, and Switchfoot.

I'm gonna have to go with Boston. I've seen them three times. You haven't rocked until you've seen Tom Scholz perform triple hammer-ons on the guitar, and triple arpeggios on the organ at the same time, both at blazing speed!

Another great concert in a smaller venue was this:

BB KING
JOHN LEE HOOKER
ETTA JAMES
BUDDY GUY
JUNIOR WALKER & THE ALL-STARS

There were others as well, but I can't remember them now...was back around '87-'88 at the Molson Amphitheatre in Toronto!

I'm still waiting for someone to name a strip club.

Dream Theater (!!!) and Alter Bridge are amazing live. Especially Dream Theater, I've seen them 25 times and each time is better than the last. I just saw Aaron Lewis from Staind tonight solo acoustic and he was incredible.

+1,000,000 Pantera "was" great live and just a great all-a-round band

Absolutely loved them. I saw them twice. Once during the Great Southern Trendkill Tour and The 101 proof Tour. They absolutely rocked during both shows.

DigitalfreakNYC · 03-01-2009, 03:19 PM

Madonna

19 times.

Probably going to Europe this summer to make it 20.

I want to see Orgy, love their music, but never made one of their shows. Hitting up Dope and Sevendust in a couple of months. It's in a small venue so I hope it's good! Love me some Dope and Sevendust!

Ferris · 03-02-2009, 01:04 PM

I haven't been to many concerts of this type.... (I generally go to classical concerts). However, 2 of the concerts I went to with my wife were fantastic.

Favorite: Michael Buble <<---FUNNY, funny guy
Second fave: Maroon 5 <<---they were actually the opening act to John Mayer. I'm not a big fan of Mayer at all, but Maroon 5 was great.
