This is a tough one--to only select 3 !!!

1. The 25th Anniversary of the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame Concert on Friday night, October 30, 2009, at New York's Madison Square Garden.
This is where I saw Jeff Beck & Buddy Guy perform together! There were TWO Live Concerts done, and I was lucky enough to be there...and Mick Jagger surprised us and came out onstage to sing a duet w/Fergie of BEP. And ARETHA was there !!! and so much amazing talent on one stage in one evening!!!

2. Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band at Meadowlands, in New Jersey, in 1984, on their "BORN IN THE USA" TOUR.

3. The Eurethmics performing on the West Side OUTDOORS in Manhattan, in the mid-late 1980's. And they sounded GREAT!!

4. CHER at Madison Square Garden, a few years ago.
(It was one of her "Farewell Tours" LOL )
I must mention Cher b/c you have a fun evening, with beautiful & creative sights to see, such as magnificent Bob Mackie designed costumes, and faboulous, colorful scenes, and I believe she works very hard to put on a great show.

The who, Yes, and The Stones or Alice Cooper back in the early days thats a hard call.

Guns N' Roses 91
Jethro Tull 93
Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band 08
