    Dream Theater's "Scenes from a Memory" (with Spocks Beard) tour meant the most to me.

    Over 100. Loved the Fillmore East. A favorite performance was when a Jefferson Starship concert at Radio City Music Hall was cancelled, hung out for a couple of hours to see Jorma Kaukonen and Jack Cassady come on stage to take requests from the hundred left in the theater. Hot FN Tuna.

    9. I'm still rather young and my dad only started taking me about three years ago so I think it's a decent number. The concerts that meant the most to me were Paul McCartney '09 and Paul McCartney '11. I think it's amazing that he's still doing music at his age, and he's still oh-so good at it, and I thought he was even better the second time even with an extra two years tacked onto his age.

    9 Concerts, but most of the concerts had multiple bands performing, so I've seen 24 Bands.

    The One that Meant the Most was seeing One-Eyed Doll, and because of a stupid venue I didn't see them perform on stage, but I did get to hang out with them for almost 2 hours, and They play acoustically for me, and We got to listen to unreleased stuff in their truck, and we made a video together. :D

    Geez.....hundreds?

    Meant the most....really tough question.

    I'm incredibly fortunate to have seen so many...but the most meaningful has to be the AIC where maggot and I ate dinner at the table next to AIC and shopped with and met members in Virgin Records before seeing the second of two AIC shows in one week. This was an acoustic set announced at the last minute and it kicked ass.

    Hundreds. I was a concert producer and around music for decades.

    Meant the most:

    Neil Diamond - Feb. 1977 when he sang Happy Birthday to me and my song to a packed house and then did a 2 hour encore for us.

    Barry Manilow...many great concerts (and a connection).

    Willy Nelson - Sang to me and gave me a big kiss afterwards.

    Dancing in front of a private concert with the Beach Boys was fun.

    Loved all the concerts with Celine Dion but having lunch by the pool in Hawaii was best of all.

    All my close 50's/60's group friends is always a delight.

    Many memories with my Contemporary Christian Artists that I have gotten close to or spent a lot of personal time with.

    Tons of concerts and tons of memories. I have boxes full of memorabilia from concerts past. Even signed clothing from big entertainers.

Fionna cuz she was on my bucket list and FLogging Molly because we went to O'Douls a little bar after the concert where they were playing accoustic and Daniel handed me his guiter to play! it was amazing. I have also seen Nodes of Ranveir, Breaking benjamin with Seether and Skillet and a BUNCh of the Soiux Falls South Dakota underground scream o bands

    I saw him twice. Once he just did a medley of his songs. I just wanted him to finish the songs and I was a little disappointed. I saw him the following year and I had goose bumps the entire show. I just couldn’t take my eyes off of him. Prince is one of a kind!

    I can't even count. It's a hobby. I get treated being in the San Francisco bay area. Everyone comes through here. I've seen some bands/artist only once and some I go see every time they come around. My taste may lean to alternative rock but it is pretty eclectic. I’ve seen everyone from Willie Nelson (He’s a legend. I had to!), to Alison Krauss (husband’s in love), Jonsi, Prince, and Ozzy. As for what one meant the most.....I'd say Van Halen 1984 was because it was my first concert and the start of my musical journey.

    Lost count but I have seen Plant 4 times, once with Page... AC/DC 5 times, took my son when he was 5 and he loved it... The Tragically Hip... Queen... Yes... Creed... Kiss 3 times... Alice Cooper 4 times... and so many more but the one that meant the most to me was Pink Floyd because it was 18th row dead center (could have had 3rd row but that's too close to take everything in at a Floyd Concert) and the other thing that make's this special was my ex wife went to the same concert... she sat all the way in the back at Toronto's CNE and that is a loooooong way back (55,000 seat's)... She bragged about it to all our friends till she found out I was in the 18th row (still have the ticket)... Love is such a fickle thing... LOL
