True. I was in Baltimore Tuesday night. He sounded better than I've ever heard him. And the concert - well, now I know why people were posting (not here, sadly) that it was the
best concert they've ever seen. And I've seen Elton John, The Rolling Stones, Cher, Tina Turner, Lady Gaga, Beyonce, Diana Ross, Tony Bennett and more... (Only saw Taylor Swift concert via her movie). I'm tempted to fly to another city to see one of the remaining dates!

UPDATED with acts I forgot I had seen. Stevie Wonder - a legendary entertainer! I was in Baltimore Tuesday night to see Stevie. He sounded better than I've ever heard him. And the concert - well, now I know why people were posting (not here, sadly) that it was the best concert they've ever seen.

And I've seen Elton John, The Rolling Stones, Cher, Springsteen (twice), Madonna (twice), Tina Turner, Lady Gaga, Billy Joel, Beyonce, Diana Ross, Tony Bennett, Diana Krall, Kool and the Gang, The Commodores, Harry Connick Jr., and more... (Only saw Taylor Swift concert via her movie). I'm tempted to fly to another city to see one of the remaining dates!

Prince at a very small intimate venue (similar to the 9:30 club, but smaller).
Portishead at the 9:30 club.

This is the pp. Yeah, I wish I had seen him. Though they are such different artists. Prince = Sex + Fun whereas Stevie Wonder = Love + Social Justice

The Stroke in Madrid at La Rivera. We were front row and it was a pretty small venue, so very up close and just brilliant.

Leonard Cohen
He was nearly eighty and performed for four hours. I was one of thousands in attendance but it felt like we were all friends. One of the best nights of my life.

Manchester Orchestra was amazing. They had what felt like a short set at The Fillmore but it was record-like quality.

Prince Warner theater row 5 center the year before he died; Michael Jackson Cap Center floor seat for the concert where he swung out over the audience (right above our seats); Stevie Wonder is also high on the list --have seen him twice--so so powerful and every song is a hit.

Also great--Sting back in the early 2000s when his voice was still amazing.

I love love this group.

I have no idea who Yuck is........they certainly aren't on par with others mentioned here to most of us anyway.
