concerts worth your dime

Have you ever been to a concert that left you weepy eyed, adrenaline rushed, flushed all over and you had such a fantabulous time?? The artists are in top form, the lyrics are flowing and the vybe in the joint is unbelieavly great.....Here are my listings of those ive seen and would do it again and again in no particular order;
1) Bar at Buena Vista (comprising of some of the original crew from Buena Vista Social Club)
2) Black Eyed Peas
3) Alicia Keys
4)Black Eyed Peas again:)
5) Lauryn Hill & Wyclef at the Tsunami concert in KL (The Fugees will always be one of the greatest ITs)

Wish list
1) Michael Jackson
2) Sean Paul
3) Jill Scott/Indiana Arie
4) SANTANA
5) Mana
6) Tyte (my younger sister and her headsmashing crew:)
7) UB40
8) Shakira/Gloria Estefan
9) Blacksmith Lady Mombazo
10) Harry Kimani/Nameless (Kenyan Artists)
