First: Jefferson Airplane in Golden Gate Park 1969

Best: (3-way tie) The Last Waltz 1976, The Who in Madison Square Garden 2002, The Original California Jam 1974

Worst: Def Leppard a few years back in Charlotte (Auto-tuned and engineered to the point of total fake).

First: Cinderella and White Snake at UNCW's Trask Coliseum. They were there for Azalea Fest. I must have been 12 or 13.

Best: Emerlad Isle Beach Music Fest 1995 (the music was an afterthought)

Worst: Kid Rock & Cheryl Crow

I've also enjoyed all the Wide Spread Panic shows I've been to.

My wife is from Cadilac, MI and KISS came to her town and spent a week there and played a free concert at the high school in 1975. She was too young to remember but her brother said it was unbelievable.

First: Poison/ Warrant in Columbia great show but was creeped out that the bassist of Poison was staring me down like a piece of meat dude wanted me and I was 13 or 14 at the time.

Best: Tie AC/DC at the North Charleston Coliseum or The Faith No More/ Metallica/ Guns n Roses concert at Williams Brice Stadium

Worst: Cinderella/Extreme/ Davis Lee Roth concert at Ladson Fairgrounds wasn't that the show was bad but 100 degree weather all day almost killed me ( I was taken to Trident Hospital after passing out from the heat and booze)

1st- Derek Trucks in Greensboro 90' or 91'. Crazy seeing this kid my age ripping on slide guitar, i was 13 or 14.

Best- geez cant pick just one but The Strokes in Ashville 07' comes to mind. Too many indy and underground shows to name, those tend to be the best shows.

worst- Janet Jackson in Orlando mid 90's

    • If Clemson wins, they have a tiny shot at sneaking in.  I’d say if Gamecocks win, that shot is much smaller than Clemson’s was Gamecocks got problems Clemson doesn’t.  Ole Miss and Bama.  Both ahead of them, with the head to head win over them. 
    • Yeah, I spent a lot of time living in Ashe County, in the Fleetwood area... 20 minutes from West Jefferson, 20 minutes from Boone... unless it snowed and then you had an hour and a half each way. And I did ski reports for radio stations back then, so yeah, I had to go in to work on those mornings. Moved to Greensboro and 25 years later, I really miss the snow. I loved how it looked, how quiet it made the world sound, that wonderful fresh smell in the air. I know, though, that it's just nostalgia and it would be rough as heck on me now. Still, maybe once the kids are all off to college the Mrs. and I can go back to the mountains.
    • Yeah, and he both deserves it and has the ability to be worth it. Offensive linemen can still be functional and good well into their 30s.
