1. What was the best gig you were ever at, and why?

Jeff Beck during the Who Else tour. I had seen him with SRV during his Guitar Shop tour, and it was fantastic, but I had nose bleed seats. At the Who Else show I was 30th row center, right in front of the sound board. Thats the sweet spot and he was just "On".

2. And the worst?

Mastadon. Ugh. They were horrible. Close 2nd to Clapton in the 80's. He was also horrible, but he was also very wasted.

3. Who have you never seen live, who you would wish to?

Man, lots to list here. I'd love to see Little Feat.

4. What's the absolute max you would pay for a ticket, and to see whom?

$300 to see Rush was about as much as Ill ever pay to see anything/anyone.

5. What do you generally buy at gigs, if anything (t-shirt, CD, poster etc)?

Beer.

6. What is/was your favourite venue, and why?

Sky Box at the World Music Theater. Why? Because Sky Box, thats why. lol You get your own refrigerator full of beer, private bathrooms, and the sound is much better than out on the lawn seats.

Bonus question: What is your opinion of the use of holograms of dead stars at gigs?

No thanks. I'd rather have the dynamics of a live performance. I mean the novelty of having that kind of tech is something to behold, but beyond that it's just stale.
