In Toronto 2003 I believe, the benefit concert following the SARS outbreak...25 bucks...The Rolling Stones, AC/DC, Guess Who, RUSH, Sam Roberts, The Tea Party, The Flaming Lips, Sass Jordan, The Isley Brothers, Blues Brothers and Blue Rodeo.

Those are the bands I can remember I know I am missing some.

PS Justin Timberlake played as well, but my fondest memory of that was seeing him on the giant TV getting pelted with a muffin.

Whoa, Oakland... Watch your back, man...

Let's see...Dan Hicks and His Hot Licks, maybe. Elvin Bishop, perhaps.
Todd Rundgren...

One of them. I cant decide.

The Moody Blues 25th anniversary concert at the amazing Redrocks ampitheatre near Denver Colorado. It was a sight to behold, all seats sold out, helicopters circling, filming the event from above, and then, as the sun set, the Moody Blues, plus the Denver Symphony Orchestra, took the audience on an amazing journey into the hearts of the veteran cosmic rockers albums, spanning 25 years of their career, having produced some of the finest, most intricately composed music in rock and rolls history. The concert was nothing short of a triumph! I am very priviledged to have been there. Videos of it can be found at youtube. :wink:

I know I'll get razzed for this one but....

I saw Oasis, 7th row at the Chicago Theater about 5 or 6 years ago and it was bad $@!. Noel Gallagher's guitar playing was awesome. Liam was Liam.

Also, saw Dierks Bentley at Country Thunder in Twin Lakes Wisconsin and it was super cool. Dude keeps it up beat and I've never seen so many hot country girls in white tank tops and SHORT blue jean skirts. :wink:

Wow. And that $150 is for the upper portion of the lower bowl. Good to know that I guess you can never be to old to really stick it to your fans ...

Actually that's not really out of line these days, particularly for good seats. CSN were $225 per last year at the King Center, and I recently paid $125 each for the Moody Blues at the Hard Rock. (Great show, by the way.)
