I only saw him once, but I would have to say Steve Miller Band.

cartman781 · 02-28-2009, 12:34 PM

My favorite live acts are at both ends of the musical spectrum. I would say it is a tie between Pantera and Nanci Griffith

Rob71 · 02-28-2009, 12:51 PM

Iron Maiden

McKellars · 02-28-2009, 01:18 PM

I went to a Weird Al concert this summer. He put on a wonderful show.

Flyfrnk1624 · 02-28-2009, 01:21 PM

Sam Roberts Band and Nine Inch Nails

Marquoz · 02-28-2009, 01:47 PM

I agree with Iron Maiden and Wierd Al, I've seen them both before, but hands down Queensryche with the Operation Mindcrime 1 & 2 was the best live act. They acted out both of the albums, and it was awesome! It also helped they are one of my favorite bands too.

I will give Rush a second place nod, they give an excellent performance, and so does Rob Zombie.

Psychonaut · 02-28-2009, 01:51 PM

Porcupine Tree, Judas Priest, and KISS. I'm not a KISS fan but their live show is pretty insane.

JasonR · 02-28-2009, 01:57 PM

Paul McCartney
Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young
Modest Mouse
Radiohead

Verkman · 02-28-2009, 02:52 PM

Although I like him (he's not one of my faves though), I had the good fortune of seeing James Brown live several times. Without a doubt (to me) the most dynamic performer I have ever seen.

John

WWE Raw was really cool when it came here. I also loved seeing The Foo Fighters live, they were insane

Beta Man · 02-28-2009, 05:21 PM

Phish in the mid-90's was HOT HOT HOT...... as were Widespread Panic

Grateful Dead was a great "atmosphere" but I only caught the tail-end of their shows.

Current favorite (although attending MANY upcoming Phish shows) would be Yonder Mountain String Band...... what an ass-kickin' good time.

sonnyworld85 · 02-28-2009, 05:39 PM

I saw Coldplay live last year, they put on a great show!

BIGLAD · 02-28-2009, 05:54 PM

Thin Lizzy was one of my favourite live acts.

silversnake · 02-28-2009, 06:25 PM

NIN. best concert ever.

Rage Against the Machine. second best concert ever.
