Best:

For sheer spectacle, KISS. I was them back in their original run and you just couldn't look at all of it at once.

Also, Madonna put on a great show when I saws her back in maybe 88 or 89.

For sound, again, Madonna, and also Boston. It's not often you get great, stereo quality sound at concert volume.

Best overall concert experience, Iron Maiden. Front row, hands on the stage, interacting with every member of the band at one point or another during the show, (including Nicko McBrain handing me a genuine used in concert drumstick), that show hasn't been, and never will be, topped in my concert going history.

Worst...

Sound, Heart's bass was a low rumble that never stopped and actually started to hurt your ears after a while.

Ted Nugent. I love Uncle Ted & have seen him 4 times, but the last one was just way too loud. There was no distinction of sound, just white noise. you couldn't hear a single note on any solo. Just really bad.

John Mellencamp. My wife's favorite. For the money I paid, you'd think we'd have gotten more than 1 hour and ten minutes. It wasn't a bad show. But it was really short. There was definitely this huge 'we've been ripped off' vibe from everyone when the lights came up.
