Favorite bands touring on your favorite album (originally)

The closest I've come is seeing Iron Maiden on the Piece of Mind tour, as that's my second favorite Maiden album. Other than that, usually when I saw a band I like they weren't touring on my favorite album. As for what they played off it, memory, and the internet, tells me Where Eagles Dare, Revelations, Flight of Icarus, Die With Your Boots On, The Trooper, and To Tame A Land. I've heard people say they never played To Tame A Land, but trust me, they did; I remember it because Dave Murray and Nicko McBrain played solos after it.

Kreator - Phantom Antichrist
Adrenaline Mob - Omerta 
Flying Colors - s/t
Rammstein - Liebe ist für alle da (maybe not my all-time favorite, but at that time I held it in high regard. In fact, I still do  )

The last time I saw Blaze Bayley, he was touring with Promise and terror, which is my favorite album of his. That's it, I guess...

Great album!

My first concert ever was Styx The Grand Illusion, and that's still my favorite album of theirs.

I also saw Rush do Hemispheres, which was my favorite at the time, and two years later saw Moving Pictures, which replaced it as favorite.

So jealous of you right now....on all three concerts, but *especially* the Hemispheres tour...

I didn't get to see DT until the FII tour, so, too late on that one.

And yes, the Promised Land tour was great. Can't say the same for the album....
I wasn't expecting much because I didn't think QR was a great live band, but they blew me away.

I was really disappointed in Promised Land. . . until I saw this awesome show.  Best concert I've ever seen, and it helped the album click for me, such that it is now tied with Mindcrime for my favorite QR album.




Others:
Skid Row touring for Slave to the Grind.
Aerosmith on the Pump tour
Damn Yankees' debut album
Ozzy Osbourne: No More Tears
Type O Negative: Bloody Kisses
Motley Crue: Dr. Feelgood  (actually, I think the self-titled is a better album, but it doesn't feel like a Motley Crue album)

They're not necessarily all tours, I can't remember, but bands I saw while their latest release is my favourite.

Dream Theater - Train of Thought: They played quite a bit of it.
Solas - The Edge of Silence: Played a lot of it.
Evanescence - Fallen: It was their only major release at the time.
Raintime - Flie & Lies: I assume it was most of the album, I'd never heard them before the concert but am a big fan of this album, now.

Can't think of any others.

The Dear Hunter opening for Coheed and Porcupine Tree in support of Act III, which was my favorite album at the time (it's probably Act II now).  They played In Cauda, The Thief, Mustard Gas, and He Said he Had a Story, so not much of the album but a big part of the concert (they played two other songs).

Childish Gambino at Lollapalooza, but Camp is really his only LP so not sure if that counts

Other than those two I haven't been too fortunate in seeing bands when my favorite album came out

It was incredible.  They opened with "2112", (slightly shortened version, same as on All the World's a Stage) then said "Good Evening" and all that.  Then "Cygnus X-1: Book One" and then right into "Hemispheres".  I honestly don't remember any specifics after that, but it was a full two-hour show, they weren't even halfway through, and that was already worth the price of admission (which was like $12 at the time).
