I figure some of the answers may be interesting, as good bands aren't always good performers. I went to a very good Radiohead concert a while back (perfect setlist-seriously, perfect), and a great Eric Clapton concert (he got really into it which was awesome). Those probably are the ones that stand out in my mind.
Yours? And, don't list fifty different concerts...list the best. |

That must have been awesome. I can only imagine...imagine what the concerts with Clapton and Stevie Ray were like when they went on tour...terrible ending to the tour though... |

red hot chilli peppers were in Minnesota a few years back. that was an excellent concert. Rolling Stones, even though they are very old now, was a very good concert in St. Paul. Even though Mick Jagger is starting to show age a little bit, he can still put on a good show and just their music alone give us chills down are spine and reminds us of what the Rolling Stones did for Rock N ROll in the 70s. They are a legendary group. I wasnt around to remember the 60s/70s, but the rolling stones are one of the most infuencial rock groups of all time and certainetly did a lot for music for the entire World.

I saw Audio Slave at Roy Wilkins Auditorium, the played alot of old Soundgarden/Rage songs along with Audioslave's stuff. I heard that that Tour will be the only time anyone will ever see them play all those songs. Tom Morello is the best guitarist of my generation. By far the best concert that me, my father, brother and girlfriend have ever seen, and we all have been to alot of concerts. 2nd best was Clapton at the Excell Energy Center. That guy can play. I would give just about anything to have had the chance to see Stevie Ray Vaughn live.

Oh, that's a tough choice. I'd say Merry Mayhem tour with Ozzy, Rob Zombie, Mudvayne and Soil a few years ago.
Runner ups: the two Slipknot shows that I've seen and Rob Zombie (again) and Lacuna Coil a month ago. |

Well, to make you feel better I saw Christina Aguilera when I was in middle school. So you're not alone. |
