Ludacris and a perfect circle. You know if you were at jazz 2003

50 cent was the worst I’ve ever heard and this was months after the release of “in da club” iconic song.

Best U2 at the pond in Anaheim

Worst Beck at the Hollywood Bowl. No offense to Beck I was way too fricked up. MGMT opened and I was good for them.

Eta Honorable mentions

Paul McCartney at the Superdome
Taylor Swift at Hollywood Bowl (with my daughter)
The Who at Irvine Amphitheater
Cinderella at Pmac (first concert)
Jimmy Buffet a couple times
Josh Groban at the Hollywood Bowl

Eta #2 Don Henley at pmac was really good too

Can't tell you the best. Stephen Stilf was the worst. Kicked over a speaker. Disappeared. Changed shirts after every song. Everybody left after first set. Then decided to play acoustic. Around 1981. Everybody expected to David Crosby and Graham Nash join him. They did. Just a couple days before. Karla Bonoff kicked arse.

Best: Weird Al - Immaculately produced, tons of energy, his band is awesome.

Worst - Gin Blossoms weren't awful, but it was a free concert and it seemed very obvious to me that they didn't want to be there.

For the dude back in 2019 who had never been to a Spin Doctors show, I saw them in the middle of nowhere back in 2006 and had a blast.

Are you with Queen's PR firm? Every one of your posts on the Music board is about them, and now you're over here doing the same shtick.

Same. Omni in ATL.

Was a Freshman in HS and somehow got an invite from a senior girl. Drank half a bottle turkey straight on the way down trying to be cool. Actually in a quick pan of a Bon Jovi video they did that night.

Worst
Blues Traveler after Popper lost his voice. Was just sad.

Nothing will ever top the Garth shitshow of bad sound at the first concert at Atlanta MBS. Tickets were expensive as shite and all I could hear was static and echos. A colossal waste of money.

An early 2000s Pearl Jam show that would have been great was not because Vedder ranted for minutes between each song about GW Bush.

Excellent concerts have been Elton John, Foo Fighters, and 311 with the Roots opening for them.
