damn i envy all of you that got to see floyd (cause i never will)
my top 3 tool at roo (didnt even like them before seeing it) ween at lolla 06(liked them before but was obsessed after) flaming lips at echo (saw them at lolla 06 daytime good set saw them at roo i felt like shit and it was way to crowded finally at echo i got up close and it was amazing)
honorable mention umphreys mcgee new years with keller williams sah and small brown bike(first show ever ) gwar(crazy fun entertaining show)
RATM - Lollapalooza 94? - the first live show i'd ever seen. you never forget your first. it was just raw energy flowing over the crowd. id never seen anything like it.
Lollapalooza 94 WAS the first live show I'd ever seen, and Rage did not play that year.
Main stage: Smashing Pumpkins & Beastie Boys co-headlined George Clinton & P-Funk All-Stars the Breeders Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds L7 the Boredoms
Second stage: Flaming Lips Luscious Jackson the Frogs the Verve a couple other bands I can't remember, and some chanting Tibetan monks
Actually, that would probably have to go in my top five too...

You had P-Funk???? Damn. I went to Lollapalooza in '94 also. It was the same line-up except we had A Tribe Called Quest instead of P-Funk. I would have much rather seen P-Funk.

as led zeppelin is my first love EVER, all the moby thingy teases blew me away. this was the best night i'd ever had at any concert/festival anywhere. it was amazing.
Black Sabbath 1977 w/Van Halen as opener, it was their first national tour. Frank Zappa 1981 Indiana University Auditorium Allman Bros 2005 at the Roo Patti Smith Group 2004 Roo Rolling Stones 1987 Riverfront Stadium Cinncinnati OH Grateful Dead (my only show) Riot show Deer Creek 1995. Craziest concert ever attended. 25,000 inside and at least another 40,000 outside wanting in. Music was okay the atmosphere was electric.

I can't believe you, and now I, are the only people to say this. I started to think about the best show i've seen for about a second, then remembered that show, and i was done. Saul Williams leading into it was also awesome, and one of my favorite shows.
ive been to a least a hundred shows and walked away 75% of the time saying, that was an amazing show...very very hard to narrow it down...
