Best Gig you've ever been to?
 

Pink Floyd - Live 8


I win



Honourable Mentions:

Radiohead - Newcastle 03
Muse - Pretty much anytime I've seen them

Sage Francis/Buck 65/Alias/Buddy Wakefield.

Mindblowing performances from every one of them.

either:

Chris Thile - '06 Manchester

or

Mad Capsule markets - '03 Manchester

Both kicked ass for different reasons.

Pearl Jam at Reading last year

Didn't need anything fancy, they came out and just played epically for almost 2 hours, was just incredible

show i just went to at my friends basement- Robo-Palooza, the theme was robots.

started off with some nice little instrumental heavy rock band
then Robots vs Humans played which was a crappy guy on keyboard, and a guitar player who hilariously couldnt play, and a guy talking, it wasnt a real band but it was good enuffe
then this death metal band who changes their name a lot who i've seen before, they were actually alright and better than the last time they played
then AUTMVBOT which is a complete robot band kontrolled by a komputer 'n' keyboards, they bring their computer to the show n set up. played mad techno n aphex twin sounding ish. freakin sweet
then this dude played who was just insane, all he did was set up an Ipod to an amp and play his songs and sing them and had mad lights but it was so uppity n junk. dip.

Metallica @ Toyota Center in Houston Tx...Front Row...I was barely five feet away from the band

Honerable Mention......

Killswitch Engage @ Verizon Wireless Center....pure awesome

Roger Waters last year at PNC Arts Center
Brand New last year in NYC
Glassjaw this year in NYC

God Forbid - Monsters of Metal tour with hatebreed at starland last month.

Method Man in Syracuse. Inspectah Deck and Masta Killa were there, as was Streetlife and Mathematics (all members of the Wu family, for those who don't know.) Most live concert ever. Even if you don't like rap, if you ever get a chance to see the M-E-T-H-O-D Man, DO IT.

Prodigy
Deep Purple
NOFX
Millencolin
Cypress Hill

All memorable gigs.

Beastie Boys and Talib Kweli was pretty fucking awesome too.

Oh, and this wasn't the best show I've seen, but Midtown played an acoustic set a couple years back and I got to sing on the mic. My friends and I also sang another song from the crowd during the set. We also had a song dedicated to us.

METHOD MAN and the rest of wu suck live, thats what everyone needs to know. i've said this a million times that all they do is get drunk on state n forget lyrics n rap about the $75 you paid to get in.

Quiet Riot. Saw them in a bar last year. Place was packed, everybody was into it, was awesome.

Slayer was fucking awesome. Although Stone Sour put on one hell of a show.

Pearl Jam - Grand Rapids 2006

Over 3 hours, 30+ songs they covered a lot of everything from their big songs (Alive, Corduroy, Daughter, Given To Fly, etc) to rarities (Hard To Imagine, Around The Bend, Satan's Bed).

And for someone who went to 3 PJ shows before and 2 after, that one takes the cake. Although I have yet to see a bad Pearl Jam show, the Cincy 06 show suffered from a lacking setlist and ruined what could've been (god damn Cincy curfew laws caused me to lose an Indifference closer :foc: ).

Jenny Lewis is downright sexy live, and Blake is the man.
