Best concert you've ever been to?

[Achilleslastand]

It was the Myriad.

Kinda sheepish to admit this but two of the best shows I have seen were both headlined by REO Speedwagon, first time was at the Civic Center with Judas Priest(before leather and studs), Foreigner(first album tour), and REO(live album tour). Really a great show.

Second was when the great Ritchie Blackmore, Ronnie James Dio, and Cozy Powell's Rainbow backed up REO at the Myriad, the look on some of the REO fans' face when Ritchie destroyed his Strat was hilarious.

Other great shows Deep Purple(with Tommy Bolin) and Nazareth at the Fairgrounds, Black Sabbath at LNC(original Heaven and Hell tour), Jethro Tull(1974) at the Fairgrounds, the afore mentioned Queen/Squier show, Yes Oct 3, 1977(memorable date cause my daughter was born the next day)

I can only imagine lol.......The fans that came to hear "keep on loving you" were probably aghast when Blackmore destroyed his strat.

I was a big Rainbow/Blackmore fan, saw them on the Straight Between the Eyes Tour.

That "look" reminds me of when I saw Journey/Bryan Adams at the LNC in 1983 (second of three shows). On the Bryan Adams song Take Me Back he had a "FU" line and the people sitting in front of us us looked at each other like it was the first time they had heard such words.....
