DCAHNM 0 Report post Posted May 17, 2012 I would say the best would be when I saw TPATH in late '91. I had 10th row seats. (I had purchased that ticket separately. The pair of tickets I had were for lousy seats and I made my boyfriend at the time sit with my mom, lol). Tom and the guys put on a great show. Very visually stimulating and (as usual) very entertaining and wonderful musically. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WildflowerNJ 136 Report post Posted May 17, 2012 Wow, great question....and I have sure been to some epic concerts....Cream Reunion....Eric and Steve Winwood....Eric and Jeff Beck...Jeff Beck....yes, TPATH... But I am going to say....September 6, 1977....Garden State Arts Center.....Jackson Browne with The Section opening....I had Lawn Seats....had come back from 4 months in Mexico playing and playing that cassette Late For The Sky (had no idea what Jackson looked like until I went to Harmony House and got the album!) I was so excited he was playing pretty close to me....yes, that is the show :heart: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WildflowerNJ 136 Report post Posted May 17, 2012 Although, Paul McCartney is right up there, too :035: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomFest 576 Report post Posted May 17, 2012 I've seen dozens and dozens of shows starting from the early 70's, including Zeppelin, the Stones, and more Tom Petty shows than I can remember. No question - the best ever was Paul McCartney. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Magnolia 171 Report post Posted May 17, 2012 TPATH the Vic 2003. (saw two but the one where I was literally in front of Tom, could have reached out and touched him, is numero uno). P.S. I agree about Paul McCartney (second best show I've ever seen) and the Stones were crazy awesome, too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WildflowerNJ 136 Report post Posted May 17, 2012 Some of the songs on Jackson's Running On Empty album were recorded that night....:heart: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Softanimal 7 Report post Posted May 17, 2012 The concert in Denver 2010. TPATH. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SingsInFrench 262 Report post Posted May 17, 2012 TPATH St. Paul 2008. I was front row center. The best seat I've ever had. I was enthralled! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AmyLou 5 Report post Posted May 17, 2012 TPaTH at the Vic. The concert for hurricane Andrew with the Bee Gees was also amazing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Patty Petty 9 Report post Posted May 17, 2012 Definitely TPATH at The Vic. Mudcrutch at The Troubadour. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nel 71 Report post Posted May 17, 2012 TPATH at the Vic. (But Sinatra, Prince, and McCartney were outstanding too.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trishia4 28 Report post Posted May 18, 2012 It's hard to pick a favorite but I would have to say Northridge 2011, front row, Mike's side, no barrier, no rail, no security. i could easily touch the stage. Mike bent down and played right in front of me. Now my most favorite I am thinking is Mansfield, Ma, 1991 when i went to my first TP concert. as the story goes I left there that night and never was the same again!

bm29759 80 Report post Posted May 18, 2012 I'd have to say Paul McCartney, saw him last summer in Cincinnati... He was almost 70 and played for almost 3hrs. After that TPATH Denver '95. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amber 70 Report post Posted May 18, 2012 Hope it is the next one! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LizzieB 0 Report post Posted May 18, 2012 Wow, can I pick a best? I must list a few. Probably my favorite was Ray Davies at Royal Albert Hall. 99% was the venue and the other 99% was seeing Ray Davies. It was such a high. Next would be TPATH at the Summit in 1983, even though my seats were crappy. I was just so happy to be there. Seeing Buffalo Springfield at Bonnaroo last year was so amazingly great! Finally, Ryan Adams in Houston in 2006. I went in mildly interested in the band and I left a changed person. I've been in love with RA and the rest of The Cardinals ever since! Usually, I always say the last concert I went to was the best. I'm a live music junkie! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
