Wow, that sounds awesome, I would have loved to see that one nate.

There have been several and I have a hard time recalling, but off the top I might have to say Olu Dara, New Year's '05 at Club Helsinki. That was a sweet sweet show.

I saw Hum with Pedro the Lion and somebody else, either Shiner or another band, at the Cat's Cradle in March 1998 or 99, that was a great show too for all you indie rock freaks. I was actually on crutches after spraining my ankle that day in gym class, and people for some reason started moshing all around me. This was during that weird period when kids weren't sure if they were supposed to mosh or dance or what during a show like this. I wasn't giving up my 3rd row spot so some idiots just got whacked with crutches.

One of the other most-fun shows was The Ducky Boys, Patriot, and the Dropkick Murphys, also at the Cat's Cradle circa 98 or so.

DMB (w/ Jason Mraz)
The Gorge Amphitheater
George, WA
2004
or
Jack Johnson (w/ G Love and Special Sauce)
also at the gorge in 2004

I have never been to Red Rocks but my Coloradoan friends say its even more impressive than the Gorge, so that must have been a helluva show.

dunno them

Up in Smoke Tour Summer 2000, Continental Arena. 9-5 plus fo' pennies. Add that [censored] up.

Bruce Springsteen and the E-Street Band 200x, The Rising Tour. I first saw him at the Fleet Center, and the first time was quite something, but objectively, the playlist was better in Providence a few months later.

Phish @ Loring AFB - Limestone ME - Aug 15 & 16, 1998 (The Lemonwheel)

The candlelight set on saturday night is probably one of my greatest phish memories. Just laying there on the grass, chatting with friends and enjoying great music...it was a very peaceful and surreal expereince.

Runner up would be a phish show at Darien Lake (in NY) in 97 where Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters crashed the party (leading to some onstage antics that were a bit strange even for phish phans). I got to meet Ken, Babs, and Mike (the bassist for phish) in the lot before the show which was also quite a highlight.
