Tie between being at the side of the stage at a Poison concert, or in the ealy 2000's when I saw Warrant in a small club with a bad turn out, Jani Lane gave my friend and I both a hug during the set because we were one of the few people up front and really digging it (PS - I'm a guy).

Stryper on their 25th Anniversary Tour. Met the band, except Michael, and I was three people standing back from the front. The concert was on a Friday night, I couldn't hear normal again until Sunday.

best glam gig was WASP at the Waterfront in Norwich, its a tiny venue, couldnt fit more than 500 people. I was at the front, right infront of Blackie, he sweats so much he drenched everyone in the first row.

best gig in general was ZZ Top with Steel Panther at the Wembley Arena.

dudes, check out my band at

A WASP show a month ago in Santa Ana, California. I was right in the front, and it was so badass it was really crowded with at least 1,000 people. I also met this cute chick! I posted the intro o YouTube.

KISS in 1977.

Bridgeview Musicfest on the 4th of july 2009: Adlers appetite,LA Guns(tracii's version w/jizzy pearl),Enuff Znuff(donnie was fuuuucked uuuup),Warrant w/robert mason,and Lita Ford with pj farley of trixter on bass,Michael T. Ross on keys,and bumblefoot on rhythm guitar.fireworks started up rite as warrant finished up cherry pie,and lasted for like a half hour.while the fireworks were goin on,lita was setting up,so that as soon as the fireworks ended,Lita was ready for the first song.it was an all day thing,and was the greatest concert anyone could ask for.gay thing was,was that lynch mob was scheduled to play that day,but pulled out at the last second,and a bon jovi tribute band called Slippery When Wet took their spot.they were actually pretty decent tho

I got to see the classic line up of Guns n' Roses when I was 12 years old in 1992 on the "Use Your Illusion" Tour. That was awesome, me and my dad went. Then the other was Rocklahoma with my ex girlfriend in 2008, sadly it seems most people won't get to see that cool line up anymore of bands like Jackyl, Ratt, Dokken etc. Instead you'll get saving abel and other suck bands mixed in with a couple of good ones. Been to alot of shows but these two loom large in my life.

Eithe one of these two

us festival 1983 , Glen Helen regional Park in San Bernadino, California during memorial Day weekend, I went to Day number 2 - Motley Crue, Van Halen , The Scorpions, Triumph, Ozzy Osbourne, Judas Priest

or

Day on the Green #1 at the Oakland Coluseum Stadium - Motley Crue , Whitesnake and Poison October 10th , 1987.

Close runner up is Guns N Roses and Iron Maiden September 22, 1988 ,Cal-Expo Ampitheater in Sacramento, California. Axl was being a bitch and refused to play because he was " sick " so Iron Maiden played for 6 hours. It was worth standing outside in the pouring rain after all.

Gawd I got 2 whole shoeboxes of these ticket stubs ..... the memories never fade tho

Slash ft. Myles Kennedy in 2010, such a killer show, you could tell Slash has been aching to play alot of the songs live for ages.

Well either that gig or Jimmy Barnes, coz I got to be close to the stage unlike slash

I think it's a cross between when I first saw Crue at Download, just because I though I was going to explode with joy! Haha how lame does that sound? Or when I saw Kiss in Birmingham. They have the best pyrotechnics going! And I was right next to the platform when Paul Stanley zip wired out! So close!!
