What is the best concert you have ever been to? The Foo Fighters concert I was at last night may have been the best one yet for me. Also, it could have been the Red Hot Chili Peppers one I saw like a year and a half ago. Some bands I like that I saw at smaller shows stick out a lot toi, but you guys would make fun of me for them. What about you guys?

I saw mars volta when they opened up for Chili Peppers, they didn't really impress me. It really just sounded like a bunch of noise live.

David Bowie - His voice was fucking awesome live.
YES - Outstanding
RUSH - I had free tickets because I worked at the Target Center. I didn't really feel like going but I'm definitely glad that I did.

Yes at the bell centre in Montreal, the opener was dream theatre. I tripped balls.

I saw the Pixies and the marble index in an airplane hanger in toronto too, that was fantastic.

also, anyone who has seen Primus live is a changed man.. Claypool is untouchable on the whamola.

I saw them open for the chilis here in Ottawa and had a similar experience. They sound so good on the coachella dvd though!

I saw Primus live at Woodstock 94' and had no idea who they were at the time. They blew my fucking mind, well, them and the mushrooms, opium and whiskey that is. It was a 3 day event that among many others included, Chilipeppers, Nine inch Nails, Cypress Hill, Bob Dylan, Crosby Stills Nash, Joe Cocker, Aerosmith and soo many more that I can't remember at the moment. Good times indeed.

i saw Yes back in like 2001 and that show was awesome! also, i saw dream theater last year up in chicago which was at least as good as yes. another standout show i was at was steve vai in april of 2005. good stuff.

worst concert i've ever seen is a tie between phil collins and kmfdm. actually, no it's not a tie kmfdm was the worst for sure.

sevendust is easily the best live band ive ever seen, but the best concert ive ever seen was black sabbath, hands down. they were nothing short of breathtaking live. added bonus that i am a metal traditionalist, so i was seeing where metal started live and in person. gave me chills. still does when i think about it.

im a veteran of 9 gwar shows. ive seen em kill 3 different presidents (four if hillary gets elected), marilyn manson, condi rice, fred durst, and a myriad host of other pop culture tools. one of the most entertaining shows around, and have been for years.

Modest Mouse right before the Good News for People Who Love Bad News CD - Awesome fucking concert, they have a completely different sound live. Bury Me With It is the best song I've ever heard live.

Incubus S.C.I.E.N.C.E. CD - Anyone who listened to Incubus back when Fungus Amungus, & SCIENCE were out, know they used to be fucking sick. Nebula was incredible live.

Back in the day Al's Hideaway was a great TO bar to see everyone from Cochrane to Stark Naked and the Fleshtones. A lot of Greats did unannounced walk-ons/jams, it was an incredible, wonderful dive.
