In terms of faded memories (age) or foggy memories (due to pre-concert overindulgence):
Pink Floyd - 1973: "Dark Side of the Moon" tour
Mott The Hoople & The New York Dolls: I'm pretty sure this was as wild as I remember it being.
ZZ Top: "Tres Hombres" had come out, but it hadn't taken off yet. A schoolmate who had spent the summer in Texas insisted that we go see them. Like a lot of young bands, they were hungry and motivated and played like their life depended on it......but, in this case, it was beyond exceptional.
In terms of a "do over":
I saw Bow Wow Wow in a small bar in the summer of 2013; but, I hadn't heard that the lead singer (Annabella Lwin) had dropped out mid-tour. That one could & should have been special.
I flew to Denver to see Steely Dan @ Red Rocks Ampitheatre a month later. We were hit with both a monsoon and a 30 degree temperature drop. Thus, that show was endured, rather than enjoyed.
