Steve Vai 1996 live in Bangkok .. In a small place only 200 people... I sat in the front line. It was my great time for 16 years old boy to see Steve played 1 ft in the front. :-)

and Metallica 1990 Live in Bangkok... My first concert I went to. They changed my life. I started listen the music with my uncle, but beofre I like Michael Jackson , Bee Gees, Carpenter ... He took me to the concert. I was shock ... 4 guys playing loud on the stage with black back ground and purple light coming from the bottom... Thats so GREAT !! Goodbye Michael and started playing guitar !!!

The Wildhearts 15th anniversary of Earth Vs at Shepherds Bush. Truly brilliant.

Oh and Motorhead, any time I have seen them. I still can't get over that they are actually there and real people!

Hm...this is a toughie. It'd be between Liquid Tension Experiment's 10th Anniversary show in New York City, or Tommy Emmanuel in NYC a few weeks ago.

Satch at a small club a couple years ago on his Love in Space tour. They seems to jam forever and I was right up on the stage practically.
Also Nugent/Deep Purple/Skynyrd back in 2000 or so. I went to see Skynyrd but I thought DP stole the show. They were amazing.

Andre Segovia on his 90th birthday in 1983. My old man wanted me to see that there was more to guitar than rock.

Van Halen 1984 - my first rock concert. 9th row, floor. we camped out for tickets. One of the best times I've ever had.

That Hamsters are TOP CLASS.

As for my best concert, I'm going to have to upset the guitar crowd and go with The Arcade Fire at Manchester Apollo.

Sorry, just miles and miles ahead of any guitar based stuff as far as a live act is concened, and that's coming from a guitar freak.

^^^^Arcade Fire blow away sooo many contemporary bands......live they are up there in my top 10 definately.

Nine Inch Nails , The lights, the sound ,the video, and the moving transforming stage hit ya like a runaway Mack Truck hauling an atom bomb.

It's hard for me to choose a "best", as they all had things that stood out from other concerts. I can choose a favorite though, and that would be Radiohead. Tool ain't far behind either.
