    whats the best concert you've ever been to?

    springsteen and the e street band came to penn state the last week of school and it was hands down the best concert i've ever been to.... and i can say with confidence that i will never attend a better concert...the dude is 62 and he rocks nonstop for 3 hours. it's absolutely incredible. definitely go see him if you get the chance

    Boris w/ Torche last summer or Earthless a few months ago, can't decide. Both shows were really tight and had my brain melting out of my ears into a pile of slop on the floor.

    Anushka Shankar.

    I've seen ALOT of musicians, and none even come close to the performance she put on.

    i guess its alot

    Im only 18 so i havent seen like every band but hands down one of the best bands to see live is pepper. ive seen them live 3 times this year and this past show at rams head was absolutly incedible. they did jams and sh*t live ive never heard before and covered random ass songs like nirvana and kicked ass on them. linkin park was the first band i ever saw live when i was 12 and that was pretty f*ckin sick. neil young has to be up there i saw him like 2 years ago and it was really good. the foo fighters are absolutley incredible live too. dave grohl is frickin hilarious. state radio is really good live. i was absolutely shocked at donavon frakenreiter's performance when i saw him. i didnt think hed be that good but he was amazing especially for a 3 man band. slightly stoopid is solid but not amazing

    Jane's Addiction at the first Lollapalooza, then again at Merriweather on June 9, 2009. Both shows were incredible, but I'm feeling plenty jealous of Mitchell of Mitchell's 1988 Chili Peppers OCMD show....I only saw them with a substitute guitarist and then again with Dave Navarro.:eek:

    Best concert?

    I think it has to be when i save dave matthews band.....
    the roots and santana opened for him. an amazing show.

    about the chili peppers in ocean city...i live here, but not at that point. i believe that they played the bottle and cork in dewey beach, and then i think they played at secrets in ocean city. i think they were both private shows.....i could be wrong
