Default Re: Your favorite concerts?

Great thread. I keep remembering shows I didn't add like Pearl Jam in a small venue here in Orlando, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Rolling Stones Steel Wheels tour in Shea, Neil Young and Crazy Horse, Springsteen at the Stone Pony, etc... Even Billy Idol on the Rebel Yell tour was fun.

I put KISS Alive 2 at the top for me because they were my heros and my Dad took me to the show and we had seats up close. I remember the flames shooting up as they came down on risers from up high and started the show with Love Gun. I was numb for days and remember it perfectly although it was 32 years ago.

I'm glad I grew up when I did as none of today's music would motivate me to take an all day road trip or camp out in a parking lot like I did in the 80's and early 90's.

Wow, I feel like I am starting to sound like my parents, but I feel sad for today's youth, as they are getting robbed musically.

I'm not to proud to admit I paid 100 bucks recently for seats by the stage to see Rod Stewart. It was for my wife, I swear...
