cool, I'm sure a lot of these youngsters never heard of him. He's one of the all time best in my opinion. James Dewar was awesome too.

AC/DC. Hands down. One of the best shows I've ever seen and probably the best I will ever see

No doubt!!! Bridge of Sighs remains one of my alltime favorite albums. It's uncanny how Trower seems "channel" the spirit of Hendrix yet keeps his own style. James Dewer without a doubt had one of the greatest voices in rock!

Saw them in a little place called the Florida Theatre in Jacksonville Florida back probably in 1974. It's one of those cool old converted movie theatres with the Art Deco decoration and great acoustics. I had forgotten how good that show was till I saw posts. Good stuff!!

I saw them from the nose bleed section at Madison Square Garden. It must have been really cool to see them in a small venue.
Good to see another Trower fan.

Yeah that little place probably only holds 1500 people at best. Sometimes the best shows are the more intimate in my opinion!

I saw Metallica, Guns 'N Roses, and Faith No More at the Superdome in New Orleans. That was a great show. I ended up seeing Metallica 3 times that year. They put on a GREAT show and they sound fantastic LIVE!

Def Leppard (Hysteria tour) with Queensryche was my first concert and also a GREAT show. The square stage was in the middle of the floor. Not a bad seat in the house.
