It was in the early '90's, & I'm not sure of the line up, but they were great. I've heard of the legendary Tull/Heap tour. Wasn't that the year Tull released Bursting out?

Yessir, it was indeed. It was also the first time I saw Tull. I saw them a total of five times over the years, and enjoyed all the shows from the 70's-80's but when I saw them in 2001 Ian's voice was pretty weak, but Martin's guitar and Ian's flute are still as strong as ever.

Wicked Lester

I have not been to many shows. None since 93'.
I have seen Sabbath twice,Van Halen, Blue Oyster Cult , Black Oak Arkansas, Metal Church Twice, Trouble , Detective ,Kiss twice , Uriah Heep in 77' ,Exodus , Accept ,Priest twice , Anthrax ,Helloween , Skinny Puppy. Lots of unknown obscure local punk/metal Chicago area bands in the late 80s early 90s.
I used to be a Rebel. Now I'm just a middle class monster loving hermit that cranks 90s death metal pulling into my driveway after work. Gives the neighbors something to think about.

The Creeper

Kiss, Metallica, Ozzy, Tesla, Bar 7, Poison, Great White, Trixter, White Zombie, Motley Crue, Faster Pussycat, Filter, Vixen, White Lion, Cinderella, Britney Fox, The Cult, Bulletboys, Winger, Slaughter, Damn Yankees, Ted Nugent, Areosmith, Nine Inch Nails, Blues Traveler, Candlebox, Crosby Stills and Nash, Lynch Mob, Nelson, Jackyle, Skid Row, Pantera, Corrosion of Comformady, Bad Lands, Collective Soul.  That is all I can think of for now.  There were more just can't think of all of them right now, like when I went to Woodstock in 94.  The one that did not have the riots, thank God!  It was a blast!  
Long live the UMA!
