    I saw the Allman Brothers in the summer of 2001 at an outdoor venue. The show ended with the bass player or percussionist singing in a cappella. The crowd was so quite you could hear a pin drop.

    He meant the killer. Good crowd control. Shoot them, or better yet, give them Flavor Aid

    A few moments at Joe Satriani concert. Mostly due many fans paying attention if he's hitting the right riffs or amazed at how he's able to hit those amazing riffs.

    Even I get mesmerized by his guitar playing abilities but he quickly does something amazing to snap us out of it. :)

    Shawn Smith's UK tour was quiet and respectful...apart from those few people in the London crowd who were still learning how much drink beer they can handle.

    Ed of course. (you can tune out the screamers easily)

    Elliott Smith

    Ben Harper ( at times )

    Those are the closest things I've seen to what you're referring to.

    I went to one of the Foo Fighter's acoustic shows and that was pretty quiet. Dave was makeing jokes in between songs and everyone was laughing but during the songs it was quiet.

    I saw Neil Young solo/acoustic at a theater in Akron, OH in 1999. You could hear a pin drop in there and it was an amazing experience. Neil even stopped mid-song at one point and asked a group of people to shut up, saying that he wasn't going to get any louder, and chances are that the rest of the crowd didn't pay to listen to their conversation.

    That show featured the most beautiful and haunting version of After the Goldrush that I ever heard.
