Best Live Show You Ever Saw!

[ProfessorM]

Can't pick one. I can't remember half of them for Pete's sake. I don't think I ever saw one show straight at least until I was 30 anyway and I don't regret it one bit. Here are 5 shows that stick in my mind
Any of the 4 times I saw Tull, always top notch
Dixie Dregs, front table at the Paradise, twice
Larry Carlton, front table at the Paradise
Atlanta Rhythm Section , Orpheum
Rush , Music Hall
way too many more I have left off. I can say I have pretty much never seen a bad concert, at least that I can remember.

Back in the early 80s I saw I LOT of shows @ the Paradise. (saw a lot of comedy shows @ Stiches next door also)
One that ranks high on my list was Tower Of Power w/ Chester Thompson on keyboards.

I dont know if it was the best SHOW I have ever been to but the one I had the most fun at (believe it or not I am not even a major fan of theirs either but...)

Back when Six flags was Riverside and Riverside had a Speedway I saw the Beach Boys play right in the middle of the Speedway on a hot humid summer night. The cars, the music, the hot asphalt down by the river......what a blast!

Don't know how I missed this thread.

The best, hands down, was one of my first.

November 1969 - Madison Square Garden

BB King
Ike and Tina (ended their set with a really long version of "Proud Mary" with Joplin joining in.)

And "The Greatest Rock & Roll Band in the world" The Rolling Stones

I've seen a lot of top acts in big arenas since, but none tops Jagger's performance of that night.
