The best concert you ever went to, best performer?

What was the best concert you ever went to?

Who was the best performer?

I think of all the shows I’ve seen Billy Idol was the best I’ve seen.

He tore his shirt off, it was incredible.

Oh, I’m sure that was a good one!

My best friend went to a Prince concert and live streamed me “Purple Rain”.

I’ve never enjoyed any of the concerts I’ve ever been to. I used to like clubbing because I could lose myself in the sound and sight of the dance music and ignore the people. Now I can’t go near them because I’m an alkie and those are great places to fall off the wagon.

For me, it was a Mushroomhead-Avatar co-headlining show. I had never heard of Avatar before that night, but I was blown away by their performance, ■■■■■■■ incredible show. Mushroomhead was good, too, as was the last of the openers, Righteous Vendetta. I became an Avatar fan and a Righteous Vendetta fan that night.

Blue Felix, an underrated metal band, puts on great live performances, as well. I’ve seen them a few times.

Yeah, I’ve heard the members of Modest Mouse don’t get along that well.

Or maybe that was just a rumor when they were popular.

What made their attitude so poor?

Well, they were complaining about the ‘ugly dirt’ here in New Mexico …
They didn’t say anything at all they just played for an hour then walked without even thanking people for coming out — however they sounded good :neutral_face:

I went to a show where I got to see Soundgarden, Motorhead and Black Sabbath.

By far the best gig I have been too.

Considering Lemmy from Motorhead died, Chris Cornell from Soundgarden killed himself and Black Sabbath now don’t exist, I think I was lucky to be in the right place at the right time.

The ticket to see the three of them was only £70

Def my first concert. 98 degrees they were pretty sick

Aside from the shitty music, the corny entrance like they were out of space astronauts. And the 1000s of screaming teenage girls, I was eight.

Definitely the best concert ever

Nah just playing I really liked The Game at a small private venue in new haven, Connecticut when I was 18. He drank a whole bottle of vodka in one chug but without a slight, it was def water replacing the vodka. He did put on a great show though.

Hands down, Bruce Springsteen & the E Street band, 1978. I had never heard of him at the time, my sister went to see him with her friends and took me along. He’s legendary for his three or four concerts and this one was about 31/2 hours. I’ve seen Mick Jagger, Robert Plant, Bono, Michael Stipe and some other singers but no one came close to having the energy, stage presence and charisma that Bruce Springsteen had. It was amazing, the best concert I’ve ever gone to.

probably the best shows i’ve been to, were “the los lonely boys” in downtown cincinnati outside, years ago when they were popular.

then i saw robert randolph when i was in college, and he puts on a good show.

and lastly i saw jack white live in st. louis once and he was really letting it rip, and meg was drunk on drums. but it was a good show.

haven’t been to a good show in years though, i used to always go to concerts when i was 16-21, but stopped going, a bunch of my friends used to drive to tennessee for bonnaroo every year and they would invite me, but i never went.

Too many good ones to pick from! My Chemical Romance, Kendrick Lamar, Tyler the Creator and Earl Sweatshirt. Can’t remember who was the best…

I took my sister to see My Chemical Romance when they were really popular.

She was recovering from major surgery and got faint during the concert.

I started screaming for people to move and no one was listening.

We were pretty close to the front and the bad stopped singing, had everyone take three steps back all so we could get out of the venue.

It was incredible.

We left immediately and went home.

I never liked that band, but am still thankful to them for what they did.

True story.
