I'm going with SRV, Doors, Beatles, and Hendrix as well. I have been a very fortunate individual and seen a ton of awesome concerts in my day. Wiltern theater Los Angeles best place I've ever seen for a concert. Opening act Doors, Main Hendrix guest appearance SRV.
Never did get to see those four however.

Best Concert: Stones Ronnie Woods first tour with them
Worst Concert: Fletwood Mac (they actually played before Deep Purple) they both sucked that night.
(turned down chance to see Beatles at Dodger stadium when I was about 10 or 11.)
Most fun concerts: almost all the Kink's concerts
Best guitar: I've heard in person: Almond Brothers lead Dicky bates cleanest/fastest guitar I've ever heard (tuff call vs Led zep lead)
Best drummer: Lez Zep (guy who died forget his name John Bontom?)
Best bass: Billy Wyman Stones
Best rhythm: Keith Richards (nobody else even close)
Best Piano: Bruce Horsby
Best Vocal performance (Deep purple, I couldn't believe he could sing Space Truckin at the same octives as the studio version)
Best entertainer: Ray Davies of the Kinks
Most energy: Bruce Springstein
Groups I would never again pay to see: Fleetwood Mac (no talent), Steve Millier (way too short a concert felt cheated second time I saw them) and Deep Purple (short concert too messed up on drugs).
