What is the loudest show you have seen?
 

I had a look around and there does not seem to be a thread about this.

Ok for me there are two that stand out. First was Metalica at Maple Leaf Gardens on the "And Justice for All" tour. My head was ringing when I woke up the next day. They played three hours straight at break neck speed.
No wonder they slowed things down on the next couple albums.
Second was "Living Colour" in a small club called "The Diamond" Vernon Reid almost ripped my face off.

Ok let's hear em!!

Slayer/Judas Priest, so far.

LOL ted nugent is ****ing loud!!!!! other than that....lamb of god was loud too.

city sleeps was crazy loud. i was like 2 feet from the lead singer guy and i was pregnant. i went in to labor the next day hahaha

i once put my ear on an amp, at a local show thingy.. yay deafness

Mogwai.

i was mid-crowd, with ear plugs in, my ears were ringing for most of the next day.

Classic I'm sure the events were connected.

the Maple Room was prolly my loudest, I'm a softie mostly.

I don't like it too loud as well. Never understood why shows needed to be so loud. You can't really hear what is going on in the show and you ears are shot after a few minuites. I always wear earplugs.

no specific band, but download 04 was pretty loud

I remember that tour. I saw Metallica and The Cult on Justice Tour in 89 and
Metallica was extremely loud. Lars double kick drums went through you, you could feel it against your face....it was remains one of the best shows I've ever seen.

A Perfect Circle and Shinedown.
Although A perfect Circle weren't too loud. But the crowd sure as hell was.
And Otep as well. They can get pretty loud sometimes.

The loudest...

Was probably a local gig a while ago. my ears were still ringing 4 days later, and that's NOT an exaggeration...

Might want to try earplugs or at least stuff kleenex in the ears. That sounds a bit loud.

Yeah, I haven't been to one in a while, but I'm defo bringing earplugs next time...

Manowar

Slayer/Lamb of God

Why would you do that?

eighteen visions/coheed/a7x

Anymore loud shows you guys want to reminice about?

Less than Jake - You don't need to mic your horns in a 300 person room

Strung Out/Snapcase @ Kool Haus - Insane, I went to a restaurant after and the waiter thought I was pissed off at him because I was yelling, my ears rang for three days

Any show i've been to at the Key Arena.
WAY too much noise and way too much echo.
Its horrid.
I've like, decided to quit going there.
I may go see death cab and jenny lewis though.

Yeah I have never figured out why people do that. I bet the drums were miced up as well.

A band called 'The Lucky Bishops' who played in a 100 person capacity room in a club in Weymouth. They played ****ty guitar pop but were so loud that EVERYBODY had to go into the other room. There was nobody left watching the band. It was still deafening in there.
