Billy Joel...I've seen him 10 times, and it's hard to pick just one, but the final concert at Shea really stands out!

Also, Jason Mraz this summer at Jones Beach was amazing! Definitely one of the best concerts I have ever seen, and I've been to many!

I saw Jessica Simpson at Radio City Music Hall and had the 5th row orchestra. She was amazing. Plus Nick came out at the end...

It is hard to pick just one...

Kraftwerk November 2008 in Sydney

The Jesus and Mary Chain at the Academy in 1994 (I love small venues, can't stand big venues)

Not sure if it counts for a "concert" but Paul van Dyk at Arc November 2002. RIP Arc.

Probably my favorite band in the whole world Belle & Sebastian in Glasgow at the QM Union in Feb 1997, it was only their 5th or 6th time playing together and they had to keep stopping because no one could remember the songs and it was so beautifully shambolic that I will never forget it....and I had just met my husband and we travelled to Scotland together to see them....it was the beginning of a beautiful friendship!

<------------ooh yes, and I am hoping this is going to be an AWESOME gig also.

And I remembered seeing the Flaming Lips at Leeds University in November of 2000...if you haven't seen them live, you should. They are amazing.

Duran Duran reunion tour at the Borgata. I ran up to get up to the stage & it was the first time I saw them with their origional line up. It was a dream come true for me. They are my favorite band.

I haven't been to a lot of concerts, but I have to say Trans Siberean Orchestra was fantastic. They are now part of our Holdiay tradition. We will see them every single year.

Re: Best concert you have ever been to?

Ok I'm going to be a dork but seriously THE best concert I have ever been to was NKOTB reunion tour @ Nassau Colliseum on 09/24/08.

I was overcome with emotions the entire show & had such a great time with all my girlfriends at that concert.

Some others that I was wowed by were

Lionel Richie at the Borgata in 2006

All 6 Bon Jovi concerts

Aerosmith at Jones Beach back in the 90's

TOBY KEITH!!!

I have seen him three times but the last time was the best because we were front row! It was great! He has an unbelievable voice and he interacted with us during the show because we were front row and had met him prior to him coming on stage. It was very memorable.

Hmmm...tough. I can't say I've been to a concert I didn't enjoy. I even saw Phil Collins back in the 90s and had a lot of fun.

But...I guess my top three would be
REM--Jones Beach 1999
Paul McCartney--Citifield 2009
Simon & Garfunkel--MSG 2003(?)

Jo Dee Messina.

She did a "storytellers" concert at Westbury Capital One Theater. Came out in her PJs, talked to us, told us what the songs meant to her, asked what they meant to us, took requests and answered questions.

Counting Crows at Hammerstein Ballroom. I was in the balcony and it was an awesome view when the crowd would go wild.
