So whats the best live show everyones seen?

To pick one from many i saw Turbonegro, norweigen nutcases, twice when they toured Australia last year.They put on a great show and even threw a bucket of "dolphin blood" over the crowd. Its was funny to look round a heap of people dripping with blood. One of the guitar players was so coked out he just threw his arms around, put guitar on and strum, take it offf and roll around trying to sing.
Glorious stuff.

Ramones were very memorable.
At the same (?) festival saw Nick cave, Mudhoney, Sonic Youth and Iggy pop play "I wanna be you dog". That was pretty entertaining.

Just one bucket??? Try going to any GWAR concert. It's not just a concert but a fucking war! Badass music, fights, sex, dinosaurs(GorGor), and tons of blood and piss!!! It's like a psycho acid trip!!!

Metallica is always amazing to see live. Clutch is also really bad ass cause they will usually just get up and jam for a long time and do a lot of improv stuff.

Clutch is also really bad ass cause they will usually just get up and jam for a long time and do a lot of improv stuff.I saw them 4 or 5 years ago. I liked the breakdowns that they did. The singer would leave the stage and they would just play for like 5-10 minutes at a time. Although I was pissed about the show, because Stuck Mojo was supposed to open, but they cancelled and some really crappy death metal band filled in.


Laugh all you want, but seriously Everclear has always put on a great show. I stopped liking them so much when they released that horrible american movie soundtrack or whatever, but I'll still go see them if they come around. Great energy. And even though I'm not a huge fan of Korn, their shows are always amazing.

If you are an undergroung hiphop fan, never pass up a chance to see any groups from Quannum Records. If the whole label is touring again, it is an absolute must for any hiphop fan period! If you have never seen a sample scratched visually, they were the first hiphop tour to introduce the DVD turntable. It is amazing to watch. :)

I saw Kraftwerk live and they were a headfuck and a half. If I only I was high it would have been the trippiest thing, they had a phat plasma screen with trippy images to go with the music and all. :D

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAHHH, SPACE 'EAD OVER 'ERE!! Matter of fact, i'm caned right now!

I'd have to say Thin Lizzy, Slane concert '81 - nothing has ever been able to top that for me.
Although The Smiths in the SFX hall was another extremely memorable one '84/85 maybe :)

the first concert I ever went to was the best so far, Motorhead, Metallica and Guns n Roses back in the early 90s... I was like eight and everyone around me and my brother were tokin up so I got pretty faded and fell asleep a few times during Metallicas set after midnight LOL

Rob Zombie is the best live though. Seriously, no band Ive seen has topped him. :cool:

I was going to name G'n'R when i saw them around 91, the use your illusion tour, in toronto. That was after the metallica/gnr tour which started a riot in montreal. Skid row opened which i missed, but my 2 hits of acid kicked in for the main show.
I havenet been to too many concerts, but have some great live tool stuff from kaaza. I really want to see them
