Pavarotti and Bocelli brought a tear to my eyes.
If I had to go with one it would be Stevie Ray.

I've been to a lot of concerts in my life. I seen a few of the above myself - -
Led Zeppelin, The Who, Bob Dylan, BB King, Leon Russell, Doobie Bros., Frampton, Johnny Winter, David Bowie (3 times! )

But 5 of my all time favorites were:
- Santana in Mobile in the mid 70's (who opened for Clapton & of course, was much better)
- Jeff Beck at the Aragon Ballroom in Chicago
- Leo Kottke (2 times . Took my son both times)
- Chet Atkins about 10 yrs. ago (took my then 7 yr. old son who LOVED him!)
- The Roches (took my son again)



(And I even saw Jackson Bor, I mean Browne in Indianapolis at a summer fest back in the early 70's ;-))

I can't believe anyone would have been dumb enough to go to Nap Town in the 70s!!! It had to have been a free ticket.
