re: What's the best concert you've ever been to?

Rage Against the Machine- Nashville 12/8/99
L7 - Nashville 10/3/22
Korn - Louder Than Life 2024
Static-X : Nashville 2/28/24
Pantera - Nashville 2/9/24

KISS at LTL ‘22 was a dream come true, hard to rank it. Being in the mosh pit during The Offspring was the most fun I had during a set.

I’ll show my age too. 1970 Filmore East

Johnny Winter was first act. No one knew who he was or what to expect. He walked out dressed in black with black hat. When he finished “be careful with a fool” the crowd sat in stunned WTF silence.

Chicago (CTA) made their first appearance that night. Same deal. Never heard of them. Amazing moment.

Can’t remember who the headliner was….

I will always say any RFTC (Rocket From the Crypt) show from 1992-1998 was the pinnacle of live music for me...

One in particular during that timeframe (forgot year, opener, etc.) at the old Howlin Wolf in NOLA... during a particularly lively set, this one drunk dude kept slamming into this chick... Speedo stopped mid-song, jumped off stage, grabbed the guy by the scruff of his neck, walked him to the front door, grabbed some cash out the door mans hand, stuffed it in the guys shirt pocket and said "keep the change" as he pushed him out the venue... he then walked back on stage, strapped on his guitar, said "sorry" and then he and the band picked up right where they left off on the song... it was awesome to behold!
