Before my time: skynard, Hendrix, boston(they had some killer fills between songs)
In my time: Pink Floyd(more than once), nirvana would have been cool

I was very fortunate to see a lot of great bands in the 70's.
1) Lynyrd Skynyrd - with Ronnie Van Zant
2) Montrose - Sammy Hagar on lead vocals
3) Foghat - ole Lonesome Dave
4) Marshall Tucker - fastest thumb I have ever seen
5) REO Speedwagon - incredible Gary Richrath solos
I did miss out on some great bands though. Here are my top 3:
1) Kansas - when Steve Walsh had the greatest voice on the planet
2) Emerson, Lake and Palmer - THE genius of Keith Emerson
3) The Allman Brothers - before Duane Allman and Barry Oakley died
Be safe, Rayzor ![[Linked Image]](http://i418.photobucket.com/albums/pp267/JLedbetter/th_Boatpics036.jpg) 2001 Triton Tx-21/225 Mercury EFI

I saw ACDC around 2000, which wasn't their prime
But, still then it was worth the money. Those dudes still put on a show
I did see Stained up close around 1998 when Aaron Lewis was still an unknown.
It was great, dude is awesome.

Pink Floyd and Stevie Ray Vaughn. I saw both. Best ever. I saw Roger Water when he had just left Pink Floyd at Reunion Arena, it was a pretty amazing show. I went to Pink Floyd the next year when the went back on tour, I will say Roger Water put on a better show. Roger Water did most of the songs off The Wall in concert, Top 3 concerts ever.

Along the lines of seeing Zep with Bonham, The Who with Keith Moon would be up there.
