    The Prodigy aren't Rock or Metal so they shouldn't count in a thread devoted to Rock & Metal gigs.

    Another vote for Kiss at the Point, fantastic gig.

    I know the crowd was small, but I thought someone would have voted for Lynyrd Skynyrd at the same venue in March, which almost topped their legendary 2003 appearance alongside Deep Purple.

    I'd have to give Maiden a mention too.

    Must check what other gigs I went to that were this year, plus as someone said, there's some potentially great gigs to come before the end of '10.

    Kiss in Dublin was by far the best gig I've been to this year, so far.
