1. David Gilmour - April 10th 2006 - Massey Hall 4th row or center
David's playing was top shelf for this show, where he seemed to fight it the night before, he was in a zine of this night. Echoes and High Hopes were the two songs that stuck with me the most. Also got a polite hello from Polly before the show started which was a very nice feeling

2. Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble - July10th 1990 Copps Coliseum nosebleeds
A show that brings me to tears just remembering, SRV died in a helicopter accident 5 weeks later. His rendition of Leave My Girl Alone was nothing less of amazing. Its so sad, because i took a lot of what was around me for granted, this is one show i wish I could have back

3. Pink Floyd
- July 5th 1994 - CNE Stadium nosebleeds, very back
One of the all time great show I've seen. I had seats at the very back but they ended up being a treat. Getting to hear Money echo around the CNE grandstand and the power of visual and sound had on the crowd during Us and Them was a truly remarkable experience.

4. David Gilmour - April 9th 2006 - Massey Hall 2 Row left center
The atmosphere in the building was incredible and I couldn't believe how much smoke could be used for a single show as they ended up setting off the smoke detectors. David was a true professional, the band wasn't "on" but to see how much he worked and cared about being perfect was a life lesson>

5. Eric Clapton - July 7th 2004 - Air Canada Center 2nd row center
This was a great show for me because Billy Preston (5th Beetle) was in EC's band and his playing brought some much life to the show. He was a beautiful man and this show was the only time I ven had the chance to see Billy play. Eric was bang on, as the show consisted of a lot of the Robert Johnson tunes and Robert Randolph opened and also did the encore with EC
