I saw Tom Waits back in 2008 and I consider myself very lucky. Doesn't look like he's toured since then. That's probably tops on my list.

Crowbar

Probably some pretty good sized death metal bands.

Hatebreed. Singer used to host the metal show on mtv.

Maybe some old punk and hardcore bands.

62 strat and MAYBE know your enemy may have seen some of these bands. Most of these are probably not really what OP was talking about though.

How about shows I worked though? Maroon 5 gave me a cooler dull of beer. Slayer gave me their drum heads and I sold them on ebay. R Kelly got in my way while riding a Segway around the Toyota center floor. I had tonturn and face the wall when his majesty prince was driven through the tunnels of Toyota center. *****. Was THIS CLOSE to getting a used WWE wrestling mat from one of their trucks. Probably could have sold that for a mint.

I was told Tom Waits had it in his contract that it had to be turned off before he took the stage. How accurate that is I have no idea. But it was indeed hot as **** in there. Never seen that place so crowded which made it even more miserable. But the show was amazing.

Biggest name that I've seen that you can't see anymore was Prince at the Summit

Most unique concert I've been so was the fund raiser at Reed with all the presidents (I'm sure some of y'all were there)

Coolest combo I've see was Kim Deal and Dave Grohl performing a Pixies song together earliest this year.

I saw PP&M and John Denver at the Hollywood Bowl a few months before John Denver died. It was a good show until John Denver to a break and when he came back out he played some new stuff. Jerks in the crowd started calling out for more of his old stuff. John Denver got a little pissy after that, and rightfully so. He had played a lot of his old standards in the first set.

Trying to think of people most haven't seen. I saw Dizzy Gillespie at a performance in a high school gym in Georgetown, SC, and BB King at a little bar in Tuscaloosa. Another great show.

BR549 on the back porch of Fitzwilly's. There were about 15 people out there. It was awesome. And then they got really big for about 15 minutes right after that.

Helmet and Hank Rollins

Saw this in person.

Some of you have seen Sammy, Ted, and Triumph.

How many saw Sammy close his set at the Texxas Jamm with Ted Nugent and Rik Emmett performing "Whole Lotta Love"?

It was flippin' sweet.
