Best Concert Ever

Just wondering whats the best concert you ever have been to?

For me it would be Clapton without a doubt. I saw him on his world tour last summer and it was awesome. He played such a variety of music from a blues jam with Buddy Guy to Cream to his acoustic stuff. Best live musician I have ever heard.

Dude, I was just going to say the exact same thing! I saw the tour in Boise... man Clapton is the shit.

Either that, or this local band in Grand Rapids called Analogous Angst.

Pearl Jam show in Montreal (october 00) and Radiohead outside show in Montreal (august 01) were great shows, hard to believe that a band could give a better performance than this. These are the best shows I've seen so far for sure...

The first time I went to see a show at CBGBs: H2O, Sick Of It All and a few crappy bands i dont remember. Its an amazing venue, so small and dumpy but that is where punk started, and so many great bands started- The Ramones, Talking Heads, Blondie...Second best show Back to school jam 1, boston the Rat. Reach The Sky, Ten Yard Fight, Bane...so many great bands in a cool little club.

Amen to all the crappy bar venues out there. Nothing like 500 more people than can fit in a small bar with cig smoke every where and people of all kinds. Everyone there just to enjoy the music and to have a good time, not some shitty extravegent pop music tour!

Richie Havens (2nd row) last summer, BB King, Joshua Redman, Bela Fleck and the Flecktones, Foxtrot Zulu, Cake. Trey Anastasio and Willie Nelson this summer should be crazy.
