No particular order:
1) Roger Waters Dark Side of the Moon was the best concert I have ever seen. I'm sure it will be mentioned many times.
Metallica 1986? at the Max Bell, it was like a giant bar, really great show but the opening act Metal Church kinda sucked. Unfortunately this was right after Cliff died, one of the first shows for Newsted but he played great.
Clash of the Titans (early 90's?) in Vancouver. Triple bill concert with Megadeth, Slayer and Anthrax with Alice in Chains opening. Drove with a bunch of buddies crammed in a car to see it and wasn't disappointed.
Billy Joel a few years back in the Dome. His voice isn't 100% anymore but he's still entertaining as hell.
AC/DC, pick a show, they are all great. The Who Made Who tour sticks out in my mind. They had a contest on CJAY for Angus impersonators and the top 10 or so got to go on stage during the opening. One guy wouldn't leave and they had to chase him around the stage. When the cannons went off during For Those About to Rock I thought my head was going to explode. Wish I had seen them with Bon Scott.
Can't really think of the worst shows but Yngwie Malmsteen in the Corral was pretty bad.
