i have 3:
most memorable - styx 'return to paradise' tour, 1996. styx is my all-time favourite group, and i have actually only seen them twice. the first time was in 1994 or something, when tommy shaw was not there. it was a good concert, but it wasn't the same without tommy. then tommy came back for the reunion tour in 1996. i was able to score 7th row floors, and i went with 3 of my buddies. the only time i have ever cried tears of joy at a concert.
most mind-blowing - rush 'presto' tour, 1989. i've seen rush five times now (and hopefully going for a sixth this summer), and that was my first. i liked rush at the time, and this concert just blew me away. the show, the lights, the music...it turned me into a die-hard fan.
best experience - lollapalooza 1996. the line-up was second to none, with metallica (headliners), soundgarden, the ramones, rancid, screaming trees. loved it all. the only complaint was i didn't get to score with the girl who went with me. oh well, can't win 'em all.

The original Lollapalooza in 1990 was probably overall best- although any Afghan Whigs/Twilight SIngers shows are right up there.
Lollapalooza had the best line-up. I was punched right in the face in the mosh pit for Ice-T's band Body Count. Then later Nine Inch Nails came on- this was right before they hit it big so it was the middle of the day and they had cheap stage decor that kept falling over and making Trent Reznor throw hissy fits- he broke like 3 keyboards. Later he came up and sat in the stands right next to us. He and his guitar player just laughed/sneered at all the people in Nine Inch Nails t-shirts who walked right by and didn't notice them lol. Jane's Addiction had the best stage show- this was the first of dozens of times after that that I saw them in concert. Always worth the $$.

The bets concert I've ever been to has to be Poison/Cinderella last summer at the Zoo Amphitheater in Oklahoma City! I had a BLAST! Not any good stories from it except we were passed out the whole way home. That's how much fun we had!!!

Kylie - seen her 4 times,m she is by far the best live act, she is an amazing singer, refuses to mime, her shows are never disapointing. I won tickets to see her at her "money cant buy" concert a few years ago, one of the people who worked there told me and my sister to hide our passes as we left the arena and he showed us into a room filled with Kylie's management/record company etc. I guy inb a bandana came up to me and said hello (Im in a wheelchair). He introduced himself and told me he was Kylie's choreographer!!! He asked if i would like to meet kylie and disappeared to find out if she was still there. I was in bits! he was gone ages and when he finally returned he was clearly merry and said she had already gone. Oh well, so close.

The best concert I went to was Green Day a few years ago. It was raining on the last song but I still had a ball. 2nd was Aerosmith, Kid Rock, and Run-DMC a few weeks before Jam Master Jay was killed.

I couldn't possibly say which was the best, there are so many..
But as far as concert stories are concerned, I vividly remember a girl at a Suede gig ca. 1994, who suddenly yelled: I lost my contacts! - and got down to try and find them. Smack dab in the middle of the mosh pit.
Sadly, I never saw her again. :o( I suppose they scraped her off the floor after the last encore.

For me, that would be STYX! The Return to Paradise Theatre show was awesome, and the only time I've seen them with Dennis De Young, but by far the best show was a couple of years ago when Nelson and Peter Frampton toured with them (I saw them 3 times on that tour). I've seen them 30+ times and counting.
Sevasxes - you should see them again. They tour all the time and their current line-up is the best ever!
