For me, 1982, Albert Collins playing in a bar in Austin (sorry anti-'buckered tele peple, but AC rules). A Quad Reverb on 11, a '66 cap neck tele , and a 100' (200'?) guitar chord. He jumps off the stage, on to the top of the bar, takes a shot of Bourbon, walks down the length of the top of the bar, takes another shot, jumps off the top of the bar, out the door of the bar, and into the back seat of a convertable Caddy in the parking lot.

I saw him do that one time at Antone's. Showmanship at its best.

Afterwords, Clifford Antone led me backstage, introduced me to Albert, and Albert signed this 50's Stella guitar of mine. Then he tuned it to open Fm, and layed into that thing.

As he played, Albert's wife or girlfriend said, "Are you going to tell everyone that Albert Collins played your guitar?"

I said, "Absolutely."

And I've been telling that story for 20 years.

All these Albert Collins stories are giving me goosebumps -- making me feel a bit Frosty!
