idk if i would really consider it the "best" concert i have ever been too, but it was definately the most fun i have ever had at one. went to a 311 concert with a pretty large group of friends, had a blast, somked weed for the first time. it was an amazing night.

My favorite shows so far have been Opeth, Arch Enemy, Megadeth, Tool, and BDM. It's hard to beat the energy of a good metal show.

I'm going to go to Burning Man this year though, and that will probably be much better...although that's not really a "concert" persay.

im not joking though. i saw her at cheyenne frontier days in wyoming last summer. i was in the party zone. soooo many 18 year old girls in flannel shirts cowboy hats and tiny jean shorts/skirts. plus whole show was pretty sweet too. id recommend it.

well 18 year old girls in flannel and short jean-shorts is really quite awesome, but I'd rather see the Misfits or something where I can actually rock out and go crazy.

unrelated story, but I was at a James Taylor concert with a couple friends and it was one of those lawn chair things where all the old fogies were sitting down and we were cheering pretty loudly after he did that song copper line or whatever it's called and we were told angrily that we were making too much noise cheering. I almost blew up at the person, like wtf are you doing at a concert if you cant take noise. especially the fact the it was cheering in between songs. we were also harassed to sit down so we promptly stood in the very front and told them to fuck off. man I hate people who go to concerts who dont like concerts

i saw the rolling stones when i was a junior in high school that was pma, but best concert ever...hmm. based on the energy of the show, my state of mind, and the amount of fun i had...driving 6 hours to see passion pit/harlem shakes was by far the best.

Mine was probably Modest Mouse in Seattle a couple years ago. Isaac Brock was fucking sick. That guy has so much fucking energy. He was jumping around and yelling at his guitar without missing a note. The extended version of Dramamine they do live is so sick.

That sorta reminds me of when I lit up a joint at a Sam Roberts concert, and the couple beside me started FREAKING out. They were saying things like "we should call the cops on his ass right now" and shit like that. And within the next 10 minutes probably half of the people around me all started sparking up too. They just shut up after that.

the misfits stopped playing shows in the late 1980's, probably before you were born.

False.
you are wrong. The Misfits with Danzig (I guess some would say all that matters) stopped playing then. They are still touring and are still making music and are still absolutely amazing although nothing compared to when Danzig was with em.
