Current Events > Best concert you've been to?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Muse concert was pretty fucking dope back in the day

The Wonder Years Greatest Generation Tour

The Wonder Years, Real Friends, Citizen, Modern Baseball, Fireworks

Biffy Clyro in 2017. They're this huge band from Scotland (they headlined Reading Fest). I saw them in Montreal where they played in a venue of 600 people. Shit was insane.

Queens Of The Stone Age - 2014? They re-released their first album and I caught them on their limited tour. Best pit i've ever been in.

Gogol Bordello with Low Cut Connie - New Years Eve 2016. It was fucking crazy.

Nofx - Mutiple times. They're always fun live.

Honorable mention: Deftones with some shitty opening band

3. Megadeth/Slayer co headline, Testament opening

2. At The Gates, Darkest Hour opening

1. Opeth/Gojira co headline, Devin Townsend Band opening

I saw that tour as well, I enjoyed it. Primus was also awesome.
---

The Weeknd in 2015.

Multiple set changes, only two brief interludes, and not only he performed the entire album, but did half of House of Balloons and some other songs from each of his other works. Also came with a physical copy of the album.

All for under $60.

Kanye West's Glow in the Dark Tour. Along with him, Lupe Fiasco, Rihanna, and N.E.R.D. performed. Was great.

Good times.

Kanye West Yeezus Tour

It was good and...interesting. But he went waaaaay over the top with his rants. Like...so much time wasted. But there's this gem:

The Dallas show was perfect. The only rant was during Runaway and all 10 minutes of it was inspirational. He covered all of Yeezus and most of MBDTF (his two best albums). The costume and set design was awesome. Nobody puts on a show like Kanye and I liked it more than GitD, WTT, and Pablo tour. It was so good that I forgot all about Kendrick's great opening act

much as people bitch about Gene Simmons, I'd probably say KISS.

Jinjer about two weeks ago

Mindless Self Indulgence by a lawng shawt.

@Carlbertomfg
I bet that show was wild.

Umm hard to say: Linkin Park would have been the best if they played for 10-15 more minutes. I feel like it was just a bit short but i went during the Hunting Party tour and man they went hard in the paint.

Third Eye Blind was one of the best ever because I went last year and they played their whole first album front to back.

Shinedown put on a hellllllllllllllll of a show. They also sound just like their recorded music.

Hard to say

Either...

Stone Temple Pilots at the Aladdin in Vegas in summer of 1994... was awesome probably because I worked that concert and thus got paid to watch one of my favorite bands of the time (it was a really good show too).

or ...

Moe at the House of Blues (also) in Vegas in spring of 1998... was awesome probably because of the drugs and incredible vibe (it was a really good show too).

Ive seen moe. Over 40 times. My favorite band ever.

Method Man and Redman

Saw the last American show of the 2001 fair well tour in Providence. Most memorable thing about it was seeing a drunk guy trip over a stair, face-plant, and not spill a drop of beer from either cup he was holding. As for me best concert was probably Laibach at the Key Club.
---

Disturbed
---

It's really close but probably
1)Black Sabbath w/ Pantera opening(saw them again at Ozzfest that yr too)
2)Eagles on their Hell Freezes Over tour

I was too young to see either band before they parted ways so the reunion shows were awesome.

This guy. He was murdered 10 years ago.

Leprous, The Dear Hunter, Between the Buried and Me. All three bands were great, though Leprous absolutely blew me away, they were beyond phenomenal. Also the only concert I've gone to.

Prince with Chaka Khan and Larry Graham. It was my first concert over 20 years ago and still the best.
---

Surprisingly it would probably be Snow Patrol/Coldplay several years ago. Great crowd, relaxing and entertaining atmosphere, just a really good show and time overall.
---

Disturbed and Korn was a pretty good show. But I think my favorite was when I saw Rob Zombie. Dude put on one badass show.

I had tickets to that show. I was in Norman OK at the time and the ice storm hit and I heard I35 was impassible. What a waste of money.

Breathe Carolina

I need to give a special mention to Guns N' Roses last August because they're not even in my top 30 bands, but they put on a 3 hour and 15 minute show and they sounded incredible. I was also the drunkest I've ever been at a show. Insane.
---

I also wanna say that Pixies were good when i saw them

Green Day last September
