    Honorable mention to Phish at Merriweather, had never scene them before, never even heard one of their songs before, went with a friend and it was just a great show- watching the band AND the crowd.

    Nice.

    1. Pearl Jam - BMO Bradley Center, Milwaukee
    2. Billy Joel - Wrigley Field, Chicago
    3. Foo Fighters - Cubby Bear, Chicago
    4. Soundgarden/NIN - First Midwest Bank Amphitheatre, Tinley Park
    5. Ani DiFranco - Old Town School of Folk, Chicago

    Three shows in one week! October was awesome. 10/15 - Ani, 10/17 - Foo Fighters (couldn't get tickets to Moline) and the icing on the cake 10/20 - Pearl Jam.

    I saw DIFranco way back in 97. She put on a great show! I know she is playing "out of habit" again.
    She put on a great show in a great venue. Old town school of folk is tiny, maybe a couple hundred.

    I also saw Garth Brooks Twice this fall! Those were both great shows! Should really be on my top 5 list but I'm not sure how country music is viewed on here so I left those shows off. This year was a good concert summer for me. :)

    Starting to regret I missed out on seeing Beck this year....

    Beck puts on a KILLER show!!
    I saw him & his band twice this year...
    Once here in Columbus, MY #1 show of the year,
    and then again in Detroit at The Fox Theatre.
    The Detroit show was GREAT too, but not in my Top 5. ;)
    I noticed he made it to quite a few top 5's! He did actually perform in Amsterdam, but I wasn't able to go. Really enjoyed his new album this year too!
