Best Concert?

HokieDNA01 · 06-20-2009, 12:27 PM

So I want to hear what your Favorite concert that you have attended is? Why was is so awesome? Lets hear them!

I think I saw the best concert ever last night.

Big Bad Voodoo Daddy came to town last night and did a small show at the Wild Horse Saloon. The brass players are so talented and the audience couldn't sit still. I was drenched in sweat by the end of the show. Everyone was dressed in 50's era clothes and swing dancing like mad. I used to swing dance in college and really miss the scene. Wish I could find a partner and start again (Kerry doesn't dance)

Me with the lead singer. MORE COWBELL!!

Going to see the hip, offspring, metric, the arkells and a few others on the 4th. It'll be my first concert.

Woodstock 99, specifically the Metallica show, they plays for almost 4 hours even though they were only supposed to be on for 45 minutes, and it was an awesome show.

Any concert at Red Rocks Park is great, but my favorite was when Bruce Springsteen played there in August, 1981. He had just came out with The River album. We got there two hours early and were walking by the stage when Bruce and his band came out to do a sound check and played Devil With The Blue Dress.

Red Rocks is a natural amphitheater of steeply-dipping Jurassic rocks, with the audience facing east toward Denver. During the concert, a full moon started rising behind the stage and the audience started calling out "Moon, moon." Bruce thought the audience was booing, until he turned around. He played all my favorites. What a show.

Althought it wasn't at Red Rocks, I saw Bruce on this tour too, and it was the best concert of the literally hundreds I've been to. Second to Bruce was Queensryche on the Empire tour. In recent years I would have to say Linkin Park, Disturbed, Fishbone, Dave Matthews, aw hell, I could sit here for an hour naming really awesome concerts so I'll just stop now.

For the record, I hated the Rolling Stones live. Very disappointing.

Senja's band is playing there too. Courtenay and I were planning on going down before I got hurt. He might still be going, but its nixed for me.
