When the Dead were touring during Jerry's last 10 years I'd have to say the Garden shows in the early 90's were some of my favs. I used to work at the Centrum as a security guard and saw some real good shows. Not in ranked in a prticular order here are some of the good ones I saw front row and side stage.

Rush
Roger Waters
Yes
Kiss
Bruce
Jerry Garcia Band w/ Clarence Clemens
Whitney Houston!! LOL I worked her dressing room and catering room and got to meet her family. She was in her prime back then and her voice was amazing.

I also went to the 25th Woodstock reunion and saw some great bands there.

Paul Rodgers
Areosmith
Metallica
Red Hot Chilli Peppers
And the list goes on............I was pretty sober compared to most that attended. We did bring in a bunch of booze and some other trinkets but I paced myself pretty good so I could enjoy the music.

Now-a-days I spend time with my friends that play in a local cover band and that does the trick for my live music cravings and budget. Concerts are too freakin expensive now. I want to go to VH but the tix range from $150 for the balcony to $300 for the floor. No way I'm paying that.
