Def Leppard, Adrenalise tour (must've been back in about '92).

As you can see I don't go to many gigs (not that anyone decent fucking comes to New Zealand......)

 

[SculptedCold]

SlipKnoT headlining with American Head Charge, In Flames and One Minute Silence supporting, in Glasgow a couple months ago.

Mainly....cuz it's the only metal show i've ever been to. =)

Without a doubt I've always wanted to go to the Metalfest...

US '83 was great and everything, but TOTT was hands down the best...

MACHINE HEAD - 1st. tour of Burn my Eyes LP (March 1995)

WITH FULL FORCE OPEN AIR near Leipzig 2000 / 2001 / 2002!!!!!!!!!!

It's hard to choose really...

Iced Earth and Opeth are up there... but both were surpassed when I saw SLAYER last night. The 2nd time I've seen them, and it was so fucking amazing. Made all the better because it was in a venue that could only hold about 700 people on the floor. Very close!

I am going to be recovering for weeks!

Iced Earth is the most flawless and energetic band I've ever seen live.

Not when I saw them on that tour you cite. They played well, to be sure; but song after plodding, mid-paced song made their set seem endless. They should focus on their good material, namely anything off of Iced Earth and Night of the Stormrider, and ditch everything else. (Well, that may be a bit harsh, but it's generally how I feel).

In Flames easily stole that show from Iced Earth.
