So many I know I'll forget too many!... But stand-outs:

-- David Gilmour solo, 69th St. Pier, NYC, circa 1983

-- Roger Waters solo, with Eric Clapton guest Guitarist, Meadowlands, NJ, 1985?

-- Kinks, Roseland Ballroom, NYC (dance hall-- no seats!), w/ newcomer Cyndi Lauper opening, Winter 1985?

-- Rick Wakeman, solo w/ his band Post- Yes, Ritz Club in NYC, 1984

-- Pretenders, Aragon Ballroom, Chicago 1986

-- Jeff Beck and Santana, Jones Beach, NY Summer '90?

-- Rush-- every time, every place!!... Virtuosos all, esp. live!

John R... Respectfully, but you never saw Pink Floyd! There is NO such thing as Pink Floyd without Roger Waters!! (And, no: sorry, I cannot believe that the Hooters were an all- time great concert!

Dad Fisherman: I'm very jealous that you saw Ozzy with Randy Rhoads still alive!! To me Randy was every bit as great at that young age, as is/ was Clapton/ Beck/ Santana. The very best "Heavy" Guitarist since Jimi H.!-- too bad "only the great die young!!"
