Hmmm. This is tough, cause I have seen lots and lots of shows.
It would be easier for me to go by decades:
80's - This is a tie, Maiden on Numbers tour and Priest on Screaming. Cannot, well will not, try and say which was better. Literally saw 500-600 shows during 82-90, so many kickass shows, so little memory......
90's - Two shows again, Metallica and Queensyche, tour was Justice and Mindcrime. Don't care how bad Met sucks donkey dicks now, this show SLAYED. Second show was Pantera and White Zombie, WZ was on first and I have often described this show as a heavy metal carnival. The visual was 99% close to absolute overload. Then Pantera came out, in total contrast to WZ, all they had was a WALL of Randall's and a drum set, with just the guys onstage. The sound was so fucking brutal, fuck me, beyond anything that had come out before it. Testament in Houston is a very close second.
00's - Nevermore in Dallas, there were only about 30 people in the club. I was about 5 feet from Jeff the whole show and took it as a personal guitar lesson. At the end of the show everyone jumped onstage with the band and rocked out. 2nd place - Seeing Testament on the Gathering tour, OMFG.
Latest and Greatest show = Nevermore @ Jaxx. Just the fact that we had 15+ Neverboarders at this show, and we hung out with the guys after the show. One for the ages...

Unfortunately I doubt they'll do 2 shows down here in Adelaide... Maybe in Melbourne or Sydney, but I think Adelaide will be too small

Van Halen -Fair warning tour at their all time best, the energy in the old Boston Garden was amazing
