Best Concerts of 2007

  • December 29, 2007

I have seen quite a few live shows in 2007. The following are my favorites from 2007.

5. Vains of Jenna, RATT, Poison

Brett Michaels

VOJ put on a good show, RATT was a little disappointing, and Poison was the best I have ever seen them live. This show was well worth the money.

4. Jani Lane

Dario Lorina

I wasn’t sure to expect when I saw Jani Lane’s solo band perform last summer. Jani’s voice was in top form, and he sounded great. The star of the show in this concert was 17 year old wunderkind, Dario Lorina. This young guitarist is going to be a force to be reckoned with before long.

3. Frank Hannon and Winger

Frank Hannon

Frank Hannon opened up for Winger with his solo band back in February. I gained a whole lot of new respect for Frank on this day. His set consisted primarily of Tesla tunes, and a few songs off of his solo CD. It was an amazing set, and quite frankly (no pun intended), him and his band, blew Winger off the stage. Winger was pretty good too, but Frank Hannon in my eyes stole the show on this night.

2. Black Stone Cherry and Jackyl

Black Stone Cherry has been one of my favorite bands for a while now, and getting to see them for free is always a bonus. With Jackyl being on the same bill, this became a must attend event. The boys from BSC delivered the goods, but their performance was surpassed by Jackyl.

I have seen Jackyl several times, but I have never seen the band put on a show like this. Jesse James Dupree was in rare form, as it was his birthday, and the whole band was killer on this night.

1. Megadeth and Heaven and Hell

I have seen Megadeth several times over the years, but this was my first experience seeing Black Sabbath live in any incarnation. Dave Mustaine and company were great, but simply got blown off the stage by Black Sabbath. Ronnie James Dio proved once again why he is one of the best singers in Metal today. A fantastic show that I would pay to see again!

2008 is already proving to have a very busy concert schedule.

The following acts are heading my way, and this is only through March.

Z02 and L.A. Guns (Phil Lewis Version)

Endeverafter

Van Halen

Cinder Road with Tesla

Jackyl

It is going to be another great year of rock in 2008!

    Oh man! We’re so jealous HRH!

    But as long as you bring ’em to us here…we’ll still be mostly happy…..nothing like the real thing though eh?

    Absolutely agree with Heaven and Hell / Megadeth. I got stuck in traffic because of an accident and missed all but the LAST SONG of the Megadeth set! Wanted to put an ice pick in my neck!

    Good list. The only show on this list I went to was Poison, but I wanted to go to all of them. Work prevented three of them, and bad Mapquest directions prevented the other.

    I think you’ll really enjoy ZO2 when you see them live. They had a great show in October.

    I’m also looking forward to Van Halen…still searching couches for spare change to get the ticket though.

    This is a good idea. I guess my list would include Van Halen, plus many of the shows you’ve mentioned here.

    Looking forward to seeing you at Van Halen in March.
