I guess this is a Prog and Power Metal forum, but seriously 22 replies and not one mention of DIME!!! I would tear out my fucking insides to be able to be able to participate* in a Pantera concert again.
* = you dont watch a Pantera concert you participate there is no option.

I'm sure that there are others that I'll think of later.....
Deaf Gods of Babylon was THE album of 1989 I don't care what anyone says. It had everything on it. I got to see them live on that tour and heard a couple "new" songs that never saw the light of day. They put on a hellofa show, like Cheap Trick does.

Some of my most memorable concert experiences revolve around Pantera shows

I would have loved to have seen Fifth Angel......being a former Phoenician (born and raised but living in SoCal now), I really miss ICON - although I hear they are reuniting.
I also miss the Ron Taylor-led Lillian Axe (loved the Poetic Justice lineup). Saw them a number of times and they were great. Highly underrated and underappreciated.

There are lots of good mentions in here, as well as some bands I'm going to check out. Besides Death, my main mention would be the highly underrated Cirith Ungol. You cannot mistake another band for CU and all their albums are great. King of the Dead and Frost and Fire are highly regarded as classics. One Foot in Hell is probably their weakest IMO, but stil good. Paradise Lost's 2nd half rivals any album ever made.
I had the pleasure of seeing these guys at BWBK's Six Pack Weekend back in '04. I was originally going to get some food, as I had no idea who they were. I'm glad I gave them a chance because I ended up staying for their entire set. I'm surprised anyone outside of Cleveland knows who they are.

Death - Holy shit, just when Chuck was becoming "progressive"...I just wish I could have seen them live and that they were still doing albums and...god they would still be kickass, I'm sure of it
Arcturus...and it doesn't matter the vocalist, Garm would be great to have seen them with and I think Vortex really shined with them (even more than his stuff with Borknagar).
Windir is a big one too, what a magical band, I wish I could've been at that Milwaukee show, then, because they fucking rule.
Pantera - I'm not a big Pantera fan, but I still wish Dimebag were still around, y'know?
Pink Floyd - If I could see the lineup from The Wall or before, it'd be magical.
Emperor - I'd love it if they were a band that still put out new content and did significant tours
Sepultura with both Cavaleras back (and them actually playing thrash again, goddammit)
Cryptopsy - a tongue in cheek answer, but shit, everything's already been said about the "new" Cryptopsy and I don't need to repeat it here
Green Carnation - I did get to see them live before they call it quit (on their first and only US tour, which was not a good one for them, attendance wise). They are incredible in just about every way, and I will miss them.
Gorgoroth - I wish that this split personality thing would end and they could become one cohesive group, I'm fucking confused right now of what to actually call Gorgoroth!
Spice Girls - 'nuff said. Spice up your fucking life!
