    Soldier Field 1995. I remember having to pay a ridiculous price for GA because I didn't get tickets when they went on sale (stupid work), but I didn't care, had to have them. Then worrying that they were fakes until showtime, worried that because they printed the dudes name on all of his tickets, they wouldn't let us in. Then finally entering Soldier Field and seeing all those people! I was almost sick with anticipation!

    Then being 17 and in the middle of that crowd, finally seeing my favorite band, and the raw energy that was everywhere. Seen alot of great shows (Wrigley was awesome and only dampened slightly due to the storm....pun not intended), but nothing can probably match that show for me.

    First time I saw them, Oct 31, 1993, Berkeley, CA.
    I am sure it wasn't the best show I have seen them put on but it was the day that cemented this unreal fascination I have with the band.

    Shows I didn't attend? The ridiculous venue they played in Italy featured in Immagine in Cornice. I think it was 9/20/06 in Pistoia.

    I can't pick one out of 30 but here are my fondest memories:

    MSG 2 2008. Because the crowd was insane and because it was the first and one of the only times my husband and I were both totally in the zone and transformed the entire time. HTI opener & Who You Are.

    Charlottesville 2013. I think it is well documented why. Also transformative for both me and my husband.

    Philly 3 2009. Got to hear some great songs I have been waiting years for. Someone else mentioned In Hiding was a standout. And I won the lottery, second row between Eddie and stone. And I brought my cousin, for his first show.

    Philly 2 2013. Had a great time with two of my buddies. Just so much fun.

    I went to Boston 1 & 2 on the 2005 VFC tour and Mansfield 1 & 2 2008. That is one hell of a drive up 195 from NJ. Took an Amtrak train in 2005 which was much easier.

    My 1st show was probably the greatest, Ottawa 2005. But then in Philly at the Spectrum on Halloween night with an extra hour is tough to top also. As a bootleg, Hartford 2008 is my favorite.
