Best 2 Live Concerts??

[Newkie]

Rush in Globen here in stockholm. The second row in the middle 3 meters from Geddy standing there looking all cool. That show was totally unbelievable, The sound was perfect and everything was just.... Best day of my life almost. I caught one of the t-shirts they threw out in the end of the show too. Its pink with a hippie sign... Amazing show.

+1

I was also there and that show really kicked ass! I had wanted to see Rush since i was 8 years old but they never came to Sweden so when they finally did I knew they would rock and they sure did! That was the best concert I've ever been to.

Second place is Dream Theater in '05 or Iron Maiden in 01'.

Ive missed DT 3 times.... This summer I won't miss them though. If they come here that is.

I would have wanted to see the Score concert... that would have been the best show I could ever have seen.

I've been seeing concerts for so many years that there's no way I could narrow it down to two. Off the top of my head, though here are some of my favorites:

--Nevermore/Evergrey: Jaxx (Springfield, VA), 2006
--Yes: Masterworks Tour, Nissan Pavillion (Bristow, VA), 2000
--Judas Priest: Angel of Retribution tour, Nissan Pavillion, 2005
--Black Sabbath: Mob Rules tour, Memorial Coliseum (Portland, OR), 1982
--Yes: Union tour, Great Western Forum (Inglewood, Calif.), 1991
--Frank Marino & Mahogany Rush: Jaxx, 2006
--Rush: Presto tour, Portland OR, 1990
--Deep Purple: Perfect Strangers tour, Portland OR, 1985
--Joe Satriani: Surfing with the Alien tour, Portland OR, 1988

I could name about a zillion others, but you get the idea...

Peter Gabriel: the most amazing live show I've ever seen

Was it the one that my fellow Quebecer Robert Lepage did la "mise-en-scene" for? (the one that P.Gabriel is in a bubble at some point with multi-cameras and all that shit)? That was freakin' awesome.
