What was the best live rock performance you ever saw?

[Cakers3]

Too many to  choose from!!

But the first one I ever attended was The Rolling Stones.

That's a tough one, it's between the Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin although I saw many others and the Stones numerous times.  I only saw Zeppelin once at Madison Square Garden and when I say the place was rocking and everyone on their feet storming the stage, I do not exaggerate.  It was wild and I loved every minute of it!!!!!!!!!

I've seen so many fabulous shows through the years....but the one that stands out most was the J. Geil's Band.  Peter Frampton was the headliner, and the Steve Miller Band also played.

All three were wonderful...but I have to say, J. Geils stole the show....they were FABULOUS!

That was around 1977...maybe 78.

Around 1974, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band at the Main Point in Bryn Mawr, PA. They opened for Jackson Brown at Villanova's homecoming earlier in the week and stuck around for the show at the Main Point. The Main Point was a coffee house that may have held 250 people. That place was rocking! We didn't get our full hearing back for a couple of days, but it was worth it!

Rod Stewart in Los Angeles, and Elvis in Las Vegas

I have to mention Three Dog Night with The Turtles (which was the opening act).

@webbgarner1 3Dog Night

[beach-mom]

The Rolling Stones - A friend gave me two aisle seats in the third row he couldn't use at the bus stop in the morning. I ran home and called DH at work. I was so nervous and excited all day. As soon as the high school kids got home I lined up a babysitter. It was outside- a beautiful night, and during one song they came down the ramp into the audience. Keith Richards looked right at me and smiled!
