Saw them at the 2012 Mayhem Fest. They headlined the main stage along with Slayer and Motorhead (rip Lemme)

Was right of center stage, 8 rows back.

Another great show was Jane's Addiction with Live opening up. Was pleasantly surprised how great Live sounded.

RATM, saw them up close at the House of Blues in LA mid 90s so they were at their peak. Easily the best concert I went to, they're awesome live.

I saw Soundgarden at Lollapalooza around 97 with Metallica, Devo, The Off Spring and a few other bands...great show.

Bands I wish I saw live but never did, there's a bunch like Tool (still have a shot so they're on my bucket list), but bands I wish I did but never have, AC/DC with Bon Scott (way too young when Scott died RIP), Dio with Black Sabbath, my favorite line up and Judas Priest with Tipton and KK Downing.

Black Sabbath on their farewell tour in 2016 will always be my favorite show.

I wish I could have seen them around 1974 though so Bill Ward was there and they were at their best. I also wish I could have seen Smashing Pumpkins in 1996 before the drug issues derailed all their momentum. Idk if these count because I wasn't capable of going to these shows due to age:lol
