Show: Lollapalooza v.1, summer of 1991, San Diego. I remember going surfing in the morning, heard about the concert on the radio, so I drove from the beach to the concert, bought a ticket at the gate and was treated to Janes Addiction, Nine Inch Nails, Rollins Band, Butthole Surfers, Violent Femmes, and Sioxsie and the Banshees. Totally random at the time, who would have known then how big it would blow up.
Album: Considering I've worn out several copies of Bob Marley's "Legend" it has to be my top, even though it is a compilation. I mean, how many of you can recall the order of its tracks from memory, really?
Artist/Band: The Rolling Stones. I hate the Beatles, self-righteous mf'ers.

Gads two shows pull at me for best one for the doors it opened one because it was perfect. Well Stone Roses at WUST (now the 9:30 club).

I thought I missed my chance in a lifetime to see them, but they moved the show to WUST on a different night. Played about 1 1/2 hours, no encore but everyone left satisfied. It was just "perfect".
I was there…actually, there WAS an encore, I think one of their first ever: Fools Gold. I have the setlist, it wasn't even on there and yet they played it. I think it was to make up for the night before. God, what a great show that was. Mani gave me his beer during the show…I was right up at the front. "I Am the Resurrection" was phenomenal.

show:thievery corporation-930 club, july 2005, the second night of the 3 night stand. that show was so fantastic it should have been illegal. it even topped the many times i've seen u2. and i'm close to smackie in my adoration of u2. if i had been able to see u2 on the joshua tree nearly 20 years ago, that would have definitely been the best show EVER.
album: egads, i don't think i can answer that one. it'd be a toss up between the joshua tree, unforgettable fire, boy, war, atyclb for u2. maybe prayer boat's polichinelle?
band/artist: band-u2. artist, if we're talking art, jacob lawrence or modigliani.

Show: Pixies w/ Yo La Tengo in Charlottesville, probably 1989?
Album: I am surprised to say it, but the White Album is probably my most played, so I guess it fits here. I will refrain from doubting myself so I don't violate the rule.
Band / Artist: Springsteen, because he keeps coming back into my life after I think I have let it go.

Show: I'd have to think on that one. There are so many that are so excellent on so many different levels, emotionally, musically, etc.
Album: In The Aeroplane Over the Sea - Neutral Milk Hotel
Artist: The Beatles. Its not even a contest. Somehow, I always end up coming back to them.

Seeing as 'wigger' is a reference about a 'white' person. (Or rather European American as I like to be called) then it is completely and socially acceptable to be racist towards them, so what's your problem?
