Those four gigs were absoloutly awsome. It just does'nt get any better than seeing Edguy live on stage, and the fact that i was at the very front for 3 of them made it unbelivable!!
After that is JUDAS PRIEST in 2001. Unreal gig, once again, i was right at the front, directly infront of Glen Tipton!!!
One day i hope to get to the Wacken Open Air festival, that would be the ultimate.
CHEERS
THE HAMMER

Leigh Van Hell I really hope you read this!!! The best gig I ever went to was to see Goldfinger at the Palais....remember that?? **** that was an awesome night. Those were the days. Thanks for the ride by the way. Whatever happened to the Spangler anyway???? lol
The only KISS show i've been too was in '95 at the tennis centre. I was sitting in the 2nd row!! From what i can remember it was a pretty awsome concert.

I was at that gig dude!! It was pretty awesome, but personally, i reckon that band who opened up for em, i think it was The Shine, i reckon they played a better set. Just my opinion, but The Darkness were unreal!!!
Another of the best gigs i've been to was Anthrax this year at the Palais. That was a killer show, totally rockin, the place was packed!!

Jules - you forgot 2 classics, both of which I can vouch for.......
Jeff Scott Soto in Adelaide. Probably the most beer we have consumed in 90 minutes and probably the most fun I've ever had at a gig - ON FIRE!;
And Status Quo at the Palais. Funniest gig ever. They came out of the woodworks for that show - that's for sure. Moonshine anyone?
Best concert event for me - KISS Psycho Circus Tour at Wembly Arena in '99 (complete with 3D effects on 40 foot screens - glasses obtained at the door - awesome effects).
Personal Favourite - Rob Lamothe at 12 Bar Club in London '99. Incredible.
