Just came across a cool concert poster.

What's the coolest/best show you've ever been to?

 

[Yakalong]

I use to go to concert and had a good time, a couple that stand out are Triumph  for the music and Judas Priest for the people

Grateful Dead..summer of 1990, east coast shows from NC to NH. Time of my life.

Back in the 70's we went to concerts almost every weekend. It was a lot more affordable then. I've got a ticket stub from a Led Zeppelin concert in April, 1977, a ticket to that show was $9. Most shows were $5 to $7.50. Due to some of the herbal cigarettes that were common at the time, most of my memories of those shows is a bit foggy. Hard to say which were the best. I saw Queen a few times, they were pretty good shows.

Recently, I took my wife to see Willie Nelson and Allison Krauss opened for him.  Easily the best concert I've been to in years.  It was a very small private venue, and we were 3 rows back.  The best part of the concert?  Seeing his guitar, Trigger, on stage for a few minutes on a stand before Willie came out.

Aerosmith with the Black Crows opening for them. Awesome concert and my eardrums have never been the same since. We had seats in the nose-bleed section buy my friend Jones snuck us past security to get to the area close to the stage. It was the coolest.

My best concert was probably Super Jam '77 at the old Busch stadium. Ted Nugent, REO Speedwagon, Head East, Judas Priest and Gypsy. VERY good time.... Until I puked. Not so much after that.

Phish with Santana opening in Stowe, VT 1992.

Bobby Weir last Winter at the Flynn Theater was really good too.

I'm waiting to hear about Tipptruck's last concert.  I had no idea that Justin Bieber put on a good show, but according to Tipp, he does.

Only four total.  Prince twice,  Tom Jones (yes Tom Jones) and Peter Frampton.

Did you throw your panties on stage?

[dave]

Of course...sheesh.

Speaking of concert posters...I have one similar to this, but mine is an original proof.  Artwork done by Leroy Neiman and original signatures on it by both Sinatra and Neiman.  I bought it at auction back in '03 or so.  It use to hang in my old home's bar when I was single.  Now it's stuffed in the closet with some of the other pieces I had.  I suppose I should try and sell it at some point.

My first concert was The Beatles September 17, 1964  https://www.beatlesbible.com/1964/09/17/live-municipal-stadium-kansas-city/

I morphed into Motown back in the day: James Brown, Smokey Robinson and The Miracles, Stevie Wonder, The Temptations and perhaps my all-time favorite Delphonics

The 60's-70's yielded the best music ever as far as I'm concerned.

[Columbia Craw]

I agree.  Steppenwolf, Three Dog Night, Rare Earth were great concerts.  Hans Beuffle the Austrian Yodel King and his Princes of Polka.  They just changed the music scene upside down.  Don't forget Slim Whitman.  What a rare talent he was.
