It's going to be hard to limit it to 5.

Pink Floyd - PMAC 1977 (actually not a great performance but it was the only time I got to see the "real" Floyd)
Led Zeppelin - PMAC 1977
Peter Gabriel - Houston (forgot the venue) 1982-3ish
Wetlands Allstars/Levon Helm/Allman Bros - Jazzfest 2010
Roger Waters - The Wall, Pepsi Center - 2010

There are at least 5 more that I could substitute for any of these. SCI's farewell concerts at Red Rocks, Jeff Beck (w/ Willy Porter) at the Tabernacle in Atlanta, Steely Dan in ~2006 when they brought back the original version of "Reeling in the Years", Roger Waters Dark Side of the Moon tour, TTB, Los Lobos and NMAS at Red Rocks last year, Zappa at the PMAC (then at The Kingfish later that night)....on and on.

Well, you old fricks have got me beat.

This isn't even fair if you weren't born before 1985.

My first show was the KISS reunion with the lineup that everyone wanted to see. I had snuck in and made my way to the front floor barricade railing in front of gene. I was a young teen and this hot blonde OT9-10 walked out from backstage on the floor directly in front of me, maybe 2 feet away..wearing basically nothing..proceeds to show her tits to gene a few times. Its like in slow motion in my memories, these awesome boobs enhanced by stage lighting, and Gene Simmons in full makeup/costume starring directly my way doing his tongue thing.

Then a low point..

A few years later, I was up front at a show in the house of blues in 2001, Marilyn Manson chugs a bottle of water and spits it in the crowd, which goes directly into my face and mouth.
