    - Summer Sanitarium tour 2003 in Chicago with Metallica headlining following Mudvayne, Deftones and two other crap bands who I won't mention because they will take away from the other ones who I went to see at the time. I've seen Metallica 8 times but that was my first and favorite one.

    - All 7 Rush concerts I've been make up my top 7 shows ever, but I'll just count that as one.

    - Megadeth/Dream Theater in 2004 or 2005 I want to say. I fucking love Megadeth that show was great.

    - G3 concert in Chicago 2006 or 2007 with Joe Satriani, John Petrucci and Paul Gilbert. Just amazing watching those sickos for 4 hours.

    No other one(s) really stands out.

    dave gilmour front row massey hall, nothing can compare- heard echoes live (WITH rick wright) and it will never be played again
    any of the 8 times ive seen radiohead- theyre all incredible
    pearl jam last summer
    any of the 11 times ive seen the roots- always a spectacular show, but this summer at the Toronto Jazzfest was probably the best due to the venue
    sigur ros massey hall about 5 years ago- life changing experience

    1) Red Hot Chili Peppers/The Mars Volta (missed most of TMV because we were waiting for our last person to meet up with us at the Oakland Coliseum) (2006)
    2) Korn/Rob Zombie - Arco Arena - Not sure what year; Rob Zombie blew this show out of the water. Korn was decent.
    3) Rammstein - Went to 3 of their shows and they were all incredible.
    4) Family Values '98 - Got to meet Korn backstage and hung out w/ Orgy after they played their set. An awesome experience.
    5) SnoCore 2000 - Saw System of a Down for the first time; they killed and then Incubus came on and put everyone to sleep. Show would've been infinitely better if Incubus went on before SOAD.

    I really haven't been to a lot of amazing shows.

    I've seen Maiden three times. The second time, on the Somewhere Back in Time Tour, may have been the best show I've ever seen.

    The stones/ g n' r show will never be topped. Eric Clapton even came out for an appearance. I went with my family and still have all 4 ticket stubs from the show.

    Iron Maiden is still just as good now as they were 20 years ago live. If you have to travel to see them do it! I've seen them a bunch of times and if they're not promoting a new album it becomes a best of concert. Saw them play Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner in LA about 5-6 years ago and I swear it moved.
