There's nothing like live music. Best live performance I've attended. In order.

1. Celine Dion in Vegas. Took wife to Vegas for her B-Day. $150 ticket.
Fantastic performer, incredible singer, sang every word, talked to the audience. A must see.

2. Bruce Cockburn in Santa Fe at Lensic Theatre, Rocked the house!
He did 15 songs, used 15 diferent guitars!
Bruce Cockburn At Taos Solar Music Fest, solo acoustic. Still amazing.

3. Arlo Guthrie Jr. at Taos Community Auditorium. Wonderful performer and singer.

Paging Thump. :lol:

I saw Primus last year at Promo West Pavillion and got to see my favorite drummer(Tim Alexander) do a nearly 15 minute long solo. The Grey Goose I consumed all day leading up to the show didn't hurt any either.

In the music field the best performance I saw is 30 years ago.

Steve Winwood & Traffic topped the billing.

Richard Thompson & his band was the "warm-up" act.

From both of them stunning performances

The only other that ever came close was Neil Young at the Agora in Columbus - many years after.

Best stage performance - not music - Robin Williams, downtown Columbus.

Grateful Dead Alpine Valley 1989 - Best set of shows I recall seeing, although Hamilton 1990 was tits... Hell, so was Alpine 87.. fuck, I'll just say every dead show I saw and leave it at that.. (And I won't list em as that would take too much brain power to recall them all)
Allman Brothers at Polaris forget the year Maybe 1999
Neil Young, Convention Center 1987 or so
Arlo Guthrie Ohio State Fair 1988 ish.. Met him that day. Very cool.
Jourma Kaukonen at Yellow Springs. There were about 50 people there, very cool.
Must admit I was plesantly surprised by Posion at Polaris 2002ish.
