i went to a nickelback/bon jovi concert. I like Nickelback not bon jovi. But it wass front row, and we went back stage before andd after the show. As we walked we relized we were walking 10 feet behind the entire nickel back band. And at the end went to an after party. The guy from super size me was there, and i walked by bon jovis drummer.

Hall and Oates!  Gotta love the 80's style!  I've been to two of their concerts, but the first was the best...I got to shake Oates' hand and say "Good show, Oates!"

The Heaven & Hell tour here in L.A. Megadeth rocked. But Black Sabbath with Ronnie James Dio was even better. When I was younger my dad also took me to see AC/DC again here in L.A.

Its a tie.

There was a lunatic luau (local ozzfest type thing we have here) and Sevendust played. Gawt damn do they put on a good show :D

And CKY. They sound awesome live, and they took a bunch of requests from the audience. The guys in that band are funny. It was a combination standup/concert.

It would have to be the Monsters of Rock concert back in the late eighties that headlined Van Halen and also had Metallica and the Scorpions, Dokken and Kingdom Come. It was at the Liberty Bowl in Memphis,TN. and me and my buds got right up to the stage and then almost got crushed because there were no seats on the field.

I'd have to say the best one I've been to was Megadeth with Corrosion of Conformity opening for them. Then next up would have to be Roger Waters doing Darkside of the Moon in it's entirety along with a bunch of his new stuff.

As of now, it would be when I went to Lollapalooza in Chicago last year. I saw Queens of the Stone Age, Mantisyahu, and THE RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS! It was amazing. But that experience is soon to be forgotten because I'm seeing Tool in Alabama later this month.

Thats tough...It's a tie between Red Hot Chili Peppers (Flea is so awesome), Marilyn Manson (the theatrics are great) and Rush (everything sounded like it was coming off the record)...

I had forgotten about that show... I saw it in Philadelphia at JFK (which is no more). The thing I remember the most was the heat and the trash... both were very nasty.

I was at the first concert of "Colonel Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains", it wasn't really that great but how often can you say you were at a supergroups first gig.

Other than that I was at a catch-22 show that totally kicked ass.  It was small (like 20 people), but eventually everybody had fun.

Oh and of course Chili Peppers are awesome live.

either In Flames when they played with no other bands but played two full sets themselves, or In Flames with Nevermore and Evergrey. Both were in venues about the size of my livingroom.

Best gig ever was The Dissociatives in Sheffield 2006.  That may be beaten by Silverchair in Manchester 2007.  Can't wait

The best concert I ever went to (suprise suprise) was Nine Inch Nails on the Fragility 2.0 tour.

First Nine Inch Nails concert I went to, been to 2 since that, met the band once and i'm going to see them again at Leeds, followed by more concerts sometime later next/ this year hopefully.
