Best Concert Experience?

Off Topic
61

Not sure if this is going to classify as a concert, but I saw swedish house mafia w/ benny benassi at pacha in ibiza. By far the best concert i’ve ever been to. probably had a lot to do with the E i took though.

despite how big of a douche bag kanye west is, he threw a pretty good concert at the ACC in Toronto like 7years ago. Great performance/live choir/symphony.

breaking benjamin also had an unreal concert at a small venue in buffalo too…forget what year. Was in the dead of winter, cold as fuck. Great show though

Those shows sound awesome. And man, I love me some Rev. Horton Heat. They used to play all the time in Deep Ellum in Dallas.

Rev is awesome! Liquor In The Front, Poker In The Rear!

They were great, Ill admit other than hearing of them I had no idea about them. But man they blew my mind at the time and became a fan ever since. Biohazard were kind of dicks, but they still put on a good show, But the Rev, and fucking Korn were amazing. This was Korns first show in NY, never heard them or of them, but when they play blind for the first time it was downright scary. TBH I know most of the crowd never heard of them because most of us were like WTF is a Korn, but man for the time it was a fucking great set.

I know that rap-metal isnt looked upon too fondly but there were a few bands that I liked a ton, I loved Korn and still do.[/quote]

Reverend Horton heat is badass!!! I saw korn a few times, They were a pretty good show. Speaking of new metal, Did you noticed the lead singer from coal chamber(which sucked donkey dick) joined some younger guys to form devil driver? Devil driver is fucking great!

I just checked out Devil Driver, are those his kids??? [/quote]

I know I know! lol They seem to have some talent vs coal chamber! haha

I saw the 'Cat’s debut American show in '82… at the East Side Club in Philly. They had just hit big in the UK, and came home to roll with their success.

Since then I saw them several more times into the 80s.

I have all the Stray Cats releases on vinyl, and own every Brian Setzer CD. He is an amazing player. Blues, chicken picken’, jazz, rock and roll, country, bebop, all rolled up into one 16 measure solo.
Awesome!

I agree, and it’s a bit of a shame his name rarely pops up in discussions of great guitar players.

I saw Benny Benassi, nervo, Steve Aoki, and DJ Bambi (I had no idea who she is, but she’s HOT AS FUCK and murdered her set) at Pier 94 in NYC the other night and it was probably the most fun night of my life. It would have been even more fun if we had gone to Pacha (in NY) after, but they were closed that night! Lame.

7 hours of dancing. My legs are still sore.
