Share the best concert you've ever been to. For me, it would have to be seeing Excision on the X-Tour in Minneapolis back in April. Bass felt like standing in the middle of a freeway with semi trucks rushing past you from both ways at 100 mph.

I haven't been to many concerts. Probably for me would have to be EQLA, cause I got to hang out with the artists and get brohooves from Alex S and Silva. That was a fun day. The rave was pretty ridiculous. Imma upload moar vids later.

First the honorable mention:
I was working at Center of Gravity (counting money) in Kelowna and Knife Party was playing their set, I was working hard so I could only hear the concert from the beer garden trailers. The Knife Party guy gets on the mic and says "Kelowna!, Put your hooves up!" during the breakdown to one of his songs. I was quite excited when he said that but being the only brony in the trailer I couldn't really celebrate in any way.
Now the best concert I have been to was a local band (who made it big in japan of all places) 'Secret and Whisper'. The sound tech at the venue did an amazing job mixing them and the band, imo, plays better live then on their album recordings. They have since disbanded but their albums are still easily among my favorites.

I went to Video Games Live a long time ago at the Hollywood Bowl. It was an amazing night. Definitely my favorite concert.
I've also seen B.B. King at the House of Blues in Anaheim. He was really good that night. Also Earth, Wind, & Fire was a good concert, but VGL was definitely my favorite.

I forget what the tour was called, but it had Suicide Silence, Machine Head, Slayer and Megadeth. It was an amazing show.
EDIT: It was the Canadian Carnage tour

Pink Floyd - The Wall Live, earlier this year, HANDS DOWN. It had explosions, amazingly intense visuals, fireworks, giant puppets and balloons, as well as the awesome music.
I also feel the need to have an honorable mention here: Blue Man Group in New York. Seriously. Incredible.

Probably Kraftwerk earlier this year. Easily the best use of 3D I've seen, and the music was great (It's freaking Kraftwerk). The bass may have been a bit loud, but all in all a very enjoyable concert.

Flight of the Conchords. No seriously, the way they interact with the audience and deal with hecklers is hilarious.

Big 4 at Yankee Stadium. Absolutely amazing and reminded me why I'm in music.

I'm under 18...
So the closest thing I've been to is a party in my friends basement (And 60% of the time I was just raving by myself cuz all the other kids were talking or some shizz) in which my classmate was the dj and I found out that he was phenomenal.
But I might go to Electric Zoo.

I saw Dream Theater about this time last year. Phenomenal showmanship and musicianship.
I also saw Obscura in a really small club last year because the venue got switched last minute, so only like 20 people came. The stage was like a foot off the ground. Intimate shows are always the best.

That sounds aweome. I love Suicide Silence, Slayer, and Megadeth. Haven't listened much to Machine Head.

Probably either when I saw Iron Maiden on the Final Frontier World Tour with Dream Theater opening - amazing music, a huge, terrifying Eddie, and the rant that Bruce gave during the closing song made the night - or the Christmas metal show I saw, where Becoming the Archetype and Living Sacrifice played. Moshed hard, BtA's lead guitarist rode on the vocalist's shoulders during one of the songs, and the venue ordered everyone pizza afterwards. Epic night.

God that's a hard one. I don't think i can put a single one (sorry so sue me) so excuse my blabbing.
Coldplay ARBOTTH tour at Red Rocks front row in the pouring rain was intense and amazing. It was the 25th anniversary of the Under a Blood Red Sky (U2) show so it was kind of like an ordained second coming in many ways. Radiohead at Red Rocks HTTT tour was amazing and got to meet with them after the show, The Chemical Brothers / Crystal Method/ BT show was incredible too.
