Hard to choose.
Allman Brothers at Ludlow Garage in Cincinnati April 4, 1970 or October 16, 1971 at Marietta College in southeastern Ohio where I heard Skydog play live for the last time. A couple weeks later he was dead.

Maybe not the best, but certainly memorable was seeing the Bad Brains and Minor Threat at the 9:30 Club in D.C. We were on our senior high school class trip, touring D.C. after a couple of days in NYC.

930 club books some fantastic shows,

we go there several times a year



which reminds me,

high school buddy and I saw Gary Numan there a year or so ago, managed to squeeze in front of the fence (what would be considered front row if there were seats)

another excellent show

The Eagles
March 13 2005 Farewell Tour
April 18 1995 Hell Freezes Over Tour

Favorite group of all time and they didn't disappoint. On the Farewell Tour the second set was acoustic, incredible.

Glenn Miller Orchestra - I've seen them several times in different places in the southeast over the past 25 years and they're always great.

July 24th 1988 - Monsters of Rock in the Kingdome - Scorpions, Metallica, Dokken, Kingdom Come, and Van Halen. It was AWESOME...
Although Klaus Meine had something thrown at him and he left the stage - but Scorpions had already played for about an hour and we were ready for the next band to start.

Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers
San Diego Sports Arena, April 26, 1995.

Porcupine Tree at 9:30 Club, Washington D.C. in 2005. They were at their prime on the Deadwing tour. Excellent show from start to finish.

Tom Petty Full Moon Fever Tour at Blossom Music Center

Man, what a night
