Best concert---I was a young tacker(14). A friend of mine purchased 4 tickets to a band that were slowly becoming popular in the early 80s.  I really didn't know any of their tunes at all, so he gave me a tape of one of their albums to listen to a week before the gig.

I played that tape over and over,  and really dug the songs. Arrived at Wrest Point Casino's new function centre and waited for them to come on stage. They came on an hour late, which just built the anticipation to some pretty high levels. And then they busted out with.......ORIGINAL SIN!!!!

I have to say, Inxs performed flawlessly and sounded very sweet.

Worse gig----The Whitlams...zzzzzzzzzz

The one i regret not seeing was the Bee Gees,   had the oppertunity but passed on it.  I bought the dvd of that tour and it was awsome,  with only 2 left, it wont be the same.
