In no order, and maybe not even the best...I'm sure some faded memories will return.

The Who
Jethro Tull
Paul McCartney
Have seen Primus, like 9 times and have met the band twice.

Smoked pot with B-Real from Cypress Hill before a show.

Saw Tool on the side stage at Lollapollooza with maaaybe 200 other people.

Ozzy
Pantera w/Clutch
Clash of the Titans tour(Slayer, Megadeth, Anthrax and an unknown Alice In Chains)

Alice In Chains at the aforementioned Lollapolooza, he drank two fifths of jack in under an hour. He was fucking smashed, and was making up up crude lyrics as he went.

Seen the Dead a few times.

The Pixies
Suicidal Tendencies
Metallica half a dozen times before they sucked bawls

Dylan and handful of times

pretty much every decent punk band you can shake a stick at, and a few shitty ones.

Saw White Zombie on Halloween night in Vegas on a grip of shrooms.

Saw Kurt Cobain jump into the crowd and beat the shit out of a fan that was allegedly raping a girl in the audience.

Have seen The Melvins prolly 20 times.

Hmmm? :think:
First time I saw them was right before Justice came out and last time was right after Load...........big difference in shows for sure.

Best:
1. Shania Twain
2. David Bowie
3. Kiss
4. Faith Hill
5. REO Speedwagon

Worst:
1. By far, Aerosmith in the late '70's in Rapid City, SD. They were too stoned and drunk to perform actually perform in any reasonable way. But they remain one of my favorite bands.
2. Vince Gill, and he was voted country entertainer of the year that year. Everybody thought it was the most boring concert they'd ever attended.

I saw Megadeth at The Municipal Auditorium in Nashville. Sound was terrible but Mustaine's voice was freaky good, like Geddy.

I saw Vince Gill back in November.

He's not the kind of guy you go see if you wanna get drunk and party. I love Vince because of his songwriting and great skill of most any stringed instrument, and I like his singing. He's just not one to go see if you wanna get wild.

I enjoyed the show I went to, just Vince, a microphone and two acoustic guitars that he rotated playing.

I guess he's a guy you go see for the song, not the show.

I saw Maiden and Yngwie Malmsteen a couple years back and it sucked so hard I wanted to cry. Maiden played all new shit, and Malmsteen played for maybe 30 minutes.

Yeah, Korn can throw down. Saw them at a minor league ballpark in California and there were some drunk-ass people there. Not me though. Oh, no, not me. :whistle:

Yeah but in 30 minutes Yngwie can play about 100,000 notes. I learned the Icarus Dream Suite on guitar when I was about 18.

The Kentucky Headhunters weren't great live, but it was a free show and I got hammered, so I can't really complain.

It was not worth the distance I had to travel, nor the money spent, and I love both.

Worst present I ever gave my parents were tickets to Drivin N Cryin. I didn't go, but they said it was painful to watch, and it was almost funny at times.

I saw Rage Against the Machine in Nashville during their Battle of LA tour. That was a great show!

If I could see any band that isn't around anymore, it would be LZ with Pantera real close behind.

I watched some crazy fucked jump off a balcony, at a White Zombie show, like 20 feet up, into an unsuspecting crowd below.

If the fall didn't kill him or myself...I'da killed him if I was standing over there.
