Oh Yes! How much fun would you have playing that monster - jeez, you'd need to be a double jointed tap-dancing octopus on speed to play that... I want one!
No; you just have to be Barbara Dennerlein. Tongue


Admittedly, that would look sexier...

Hell of a nice guy too...

WOW.....  Never thought there would be a fellow Wildcat here in the Progarchives....  I am class of 1988 (though I started attending the school in 1979... long story as to why it took so long to graduate... lol), and I went back to NMU to get my Secondary Teaching Certification in 1993-1995.  And it is interesting that you brought up that school, because my most emotional concert experience happened there.  It actually was emotional more in retrospect than at the time it happened, though the concert itself was excellent.  In 1981, I went to see Harry Chapin perform at the fieldhouse.  I didn't know it at the time, but I witnessed one of the last live performances of this great singer/songwriter......  I cried when, in July of the same year, I read of his death in a car crash.......

I have quite a few :
 
Rush - Vapor Trails tour in Toronto.
It was so good to see them 'home' (I'm from Montreal) after such a long absence.  It was an outdoor concert, and in the background we could see the CN Tower, with the moon above it... a magical night to say the least !
 
The Tea Party with The Montreal Metropolitan Orchestra
Man, that was such an intense concert.  The arrangments were very poignant, the choice of songs excellent... hell, I had tears in my eyes during a few songs in the show !
 
Pink Floyd - The Division Bell Tour
Pink Floyd is the first prog band I discovered (i was 5 or 6 years old), and this show was the only one I saw from them...
 
I could go on and on, but these are my most intense concerts.
