1. Dr. Dre and Snoop at Coachllea 2012 - the Tupac hologram show. It was insane not knowing who was coming up or what was going on. 50 Cent, Eminem, Warren G were all insane and then the hologram was one of the most surreal experiences of my life.
2. The Hip at the Dome on their last tour, night one - as mentioned before, I thought the ground was shaking during Grace, too.
3. Kanye West Glow in the Dark tour at the Saddledome - insane show with Kanye still mostly holding it together. Also Rhianna, NERD and Lupe opening was wild.
4. Rolling Stones at the Commons in Halifax - even though it was pissing rain it was a total blast.
5. Prince at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto on the Welcome 2 Canada Tour - I saw him 4 times on his tour, and this show was by far the best. Prince was in a great mood and I think there were 3 or 4 encores.
Honorable mentions: U2 at the saddledome on the elevation tour, Tom Petty and Steve Winwood at the Saddledome, Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit at the Ryman in Nashville, Stevie Wonder at Bonnaroo, Kanye and Jay-Z on the Watch the Throne tour, Chemical Brothers at Coachella
