I think that is the same show I saw at Commonwealth convention center in Louisville. It was so frikken loud, tiny room, smaller than most high school gyms, but it ROCKED!! I was thinking it was the Fly on the wall tour though, maybe 1985-86.Did anybody see AC/DC with the Japanese group "Loudness"? I think it was during the "Who Made Who" Tour. That Japanese group rocked... I was surprised.
Tough one...
Buddy Rich
Maynard Ferguson
Doc Severinson
Clark Terry
Henery Questa
Woody Herman
Tommy Dorsey
Al DiMeola/ His Elegant Gypsy Suite was the BOMB.
I get to work stage security for Verizon/Conseco/Murat now so I don't "see" any concerts because my back is to the performers. I have heard several outstanding concerts though!!!
White Zombie and Anthrax at Deer Creek was great.
I saw Waylon at Lollapalooza in '96. It was kind of weird because he definitely didn't fit with the rest of the lineup.
Been to a lot of concerts but got to say the best one was Pantera in 92. The lead singer, Phil Anselmo, came off the stage to the floor and started a mosh pit right in front of me. Goodtimes!
It wasn't necessarily the best concert, but Green Day at XFest in 2000 (I think) put on one hell of a show. They ended with Billy Joe playing Good Riddance (Time of Your Life) solo while Tre Cool's drum set burned in the background. The flames put off by a fully engulfed drum set were pretty impressive. They definitely upstaged the headliner, STP, that year.
I bet that was one of those shows at the Hulman Center my dad always talks about. It makes me sick to hear the list of bands he has seen two or three at a time and the ticket was only five bucks.Wow, how does one pick a best? Let's see:
My first concert was at the Hulman Civic Center. I saw the KISS Destroyer Tour Show, Uriah Heep warmed up. That was back when they still had "Festival Seating" where there were no chairs on the floor because they would have just gotten in the way and ended up being thrown up on the stage with the Little Kings bottles.
