Anybody surprised that I am going to vote for the Toadies at Shadow Canyon? Didn't think so. I am certain I suffered permanent hearing damage that evening.
Best live act you saw in BCS?

BTE at Rodeo 2000 was good.
Wierdest show was Run DMC, Vanilla Ice, Jerry Jeff and REK at Wolfpen.

+1 for Cheap Trick at G. Rollie in 1981!
I still remember Toadies at Shadow. I sat as you came up the stairs to the left. I consumed many a chugger.
Also, when Tony's was in downtown Bryan, my roommates' band opened for Bowling for Soup there. That was a good time...

How long do you want to ignore this user?
AG
MC Hammer with little known Aussie opener ACDC, G Rollie W circa 1985
Tony's studio 5 was quite possibly the best venue for a local band to play. Tony was awesome to work with

Anyone remember Bun E. Carlos chain smoking on the drums? I had a friend that worked the clean up crew and he said the pile of butts was huge when he swept the stage.

Ag Kickoff in 98-Jerry Jeff, Pat Green, Run DMC, and Vanilla Ice.
Candlebox was also great.

Live played a great show in Rudder around 99 or 00. Not the best, but it was great.
willie nelson at harry's. amazing.
Tie between Blue October at Time Square and Bob Schneider at Ziegfest
The Nixons at Dixie Theatre.
The Suspects were great too, despite never having a large crowd. And Cory Morrow at Harry's is up there.
Never saw Sponge at Shadow Canyon, but the show at Wolf Pen Creek was weak.
What year was the Bosstones show? I assume they were in suit and tie even back then.

Pushmonkey at Shadow Canyon (RIP) and Harry's
Better Than Ezra at Harry's
The Nixons at the Tap were pretty good, but not great.
I didn't see Sister Hazel in CS, but I've seen them a couple times in Orlando, and they are friggin' outstanding!
Greutzmachers -- Goin' commando!

Cheap Trick in '81 had a couple of big curtains with graphics behind the stage that they changed out during the concert. It was a big deal at the time for lowly GRW.
Anyone remember their opening act: Novo Combo? I liked their music. I think they have one or two videos on You Tube.
But Rick Nielsen and Co. definitely rocked the house.

BTE at Harrys and Gary Allan (HOF show #2 I think) were the best i've seen in CS.

this is a really sad list.
i saw lots of great shows when at a&m, unfortunately all of them were in austin or houston.
Not sure if it was the best but sure enjoyed the Nixons at the 3rd Floor Cantina.
Thinking about that does make me feel old though.

'94 or '95 I believe. Yes, they were all suited up and even had the guy dancing even though there was barely enough room in Stafford. After their set and during Fishbone they hung out and drank with the masses while handing out freebies.
There used to be a concert at GRW every Friday night on home game weekends leading up to Yell Practice ... prior to the concert scene changing and becoming cost prohibitive.
I think Bosstones was '93, during my post-grad year of slack.
twang twang shock a boom
The Eagles at G Rollie in 1974

Tripping Daisy with UFOFU opening. ~1995
Saw Tripping Daisy a couple years later at the Hall. Amazing show. met the band. Then the dude had to go and off himself soon after.
Where was the Stafford? Is that where 3rd Floor Cantina was?
