    Best concert you have been to?

    What concert was your favorite?

    Mine was a recent one when Ian Anderson came to town. No scorpion launching bras, no exploding angler fish, no outrageous anything.

    Monster Ball Tour
    I know who you're referencing...
    But there was no scorpion launching bras, unless I really, really wasn't paying attention.

    My favorite was Metallica on the Death Magnetic tour.

    There were angler fish wearing scorpion-launching bras. It was pretty epic.

    My first one. Liquored up teen. Primus opening up for Public Enemy and Anthrax. Dan Spitz signed my shoe. I've since lost it. Tim 'Herb' Alexander left me hangin. Flavor Flav ran around the stage with a giant inflatable penis. It was awesome.

    Joe Satriani in Santa Barbara. Four hours of just pure playing. Gangster just ran on stage, grabbed his guitar and played for four hours.

    That involves activity OUTSIDE my basement?
    Deadmau5 performing live is absolutely amazing.

    I think the best concert i've been to was Iron Maiden this summer. It wasn't only the concert, but also driving about 600 km with a bunch of close friends to get there. So it was a fun experience . Close mentions are an Ac/Dc concert and this year's Sonisphere festival. If i hadn't missed Dream Theater in 2002, the list would've been a lot easier to make :P.

    Ah sweet 16, hitchhiked there with a friend of mine a year younger.

    I can't really list a top single one, but here's 3:

    Nine Inch Nails:
    When NIN came back right before they released With Teeth. Their first show was the Orpheum in Boston, a TINY place for them. Trent didn't think it would sell that well. He was wrong. It was a vicious show, the place was ruined.

    Green Day:
    Right after Warning came out I got to see them live. Great show.

    The Dresden Dolls:
    Nothing matches Brian Viglione's drumming skills during a cover of War Pigs by Black Sabbath. It was beautiful.

    Believe me I was in shock and awe. It was a very intimate set as well, I hadn't been nor have been since to a more intimate setting. It was the best birthday gift I have ever received.

    Dave Mathews Band EVERY summer here in Buffalo. I hate his studio crap, but his concerts are the best I've ever been to and I go every summer he's here (which is every summer since he started). Other than that, the Queensryche - Building Empires tour back in '92.

    Green Day in Wembley. Had Joan Jett and the Blackhearts supporting, and someone else I've never heard of.
    Fucking awesome night, and they're a great live band, very crowd-orientated too.

    I wanna see the Foo Fighters. ><
