i've only seen concerts in three stadiums -- the above-mentioned (and now gone) veterans stadium, giants stadium, and jfk stadium (which is also gone i think). my vote goes to jfk stadium b/c (a) there were no fences so EVERYONE got onto the field; and (b) there's not much (if any) difference b/w the vet and giants' stadium anyway.

Live Aid was at the Vet, yeah?

Reunion Arena was always too loud and the sound was generally terrible. I haven't seen anything at the new American Airlines Center yet.

btw I've never seen a concert in an outdoor stadium. Saw Steely Dan in an ampitheater (Riverbend) and Bruce Springsteen in an arena (United Center), tho.
