Best Concert You Ever Seen Live or Downloaded?

[Seanne1986]

Fun these threads.

Anyway.. I haven't really been to any concert worth mentioning.. But 1 band I wanna see the most are The Killers.

Downloaded The Killers - Live From Royal Albert Hall concert... and this is truly the best concert I've ever seen and listened to!

Twin Atlantic in January. Small concert in Hamburg, Germany. We were, about 100 people. Me and my friend, after 6 hours of train rides from northern Denmark to Hamburg, standing in the front row. Most amazing experience ever!

So awesome. Then we partied with the band afterwards. Got to talk to them and drink with them. An amazing outofbody experience, standing there and talking to your favorite singer Sam McTrusty! <3

Man it was awesome! :D

PICTURES
This is litteraly how small and intimate it was. So fucking awesome!

[Jebotek]

best shows ive ever been to was AC DC and Kiss. So freakin awesome fire effects and stuff.
Funniest one was definately David Hasselhoff.
I was goin to see Black Sabbath this year in june, but the guitarist got lung cancer or somethin....

[Slamooh]

amon tobin - isam live

[Ladd279]

Ozzy when he came to Nashville by far the best show I've been to. Can't remember what tour he was on but slash opened for him! Let's say ozzy still has it!

[fallingskyline]

pianos become the teeth in cologne at club scheisse...

the drummer is TWO BEASTS and they're all playing as if their lives were in danger, it was intense (and this is and understatement!!!)

Also i saw Iron Madien with Dio and Motorhead which was way to sick

[Goon_Panda]

Best I've been to had to be Daft Punk's Alive in Melbourne, Australia in 2007. I've also been to AC/DC, they performed here in New Zealand last year. Imma see the Black Keys when they're in NZ in November. Can't wait.

In NZ there are 3 main music festivals throughout the year. They are The B.O.D (big day out) , Rhythm and Vines, and Homegrown. The first 2 have artists from all around the world coming each year such as Muse and Chemical Brothers. Even Mr. Oizo went a few years ago. Homegrown is what its title implies, just NZ artists and bands.

I was looking at some ticket sales website and I nearly fainted when I saw RHCP VIP passes for just $50, but I got the tickets in the mail and turns out it was actually the Red Hot Chili PIPERS, not peppers. It was just some gaggle of gay irish with bagpipes. And no, the Irish aren't gay, but these goons were.


And I typed all of that on an Iphone while on a bus.

[PoppySquidJr]

Aerosmith - Honkin' On Bobo in South Carolina. Aerosmith puts on one hell of a show.
Also saw the Trans-Siberian Orchestra, also one hell of an amazing show.

TOOL LIVE at the Molson Amphitheatre. nuff said

[Deacon]

Nirvana @ Reading in 92, immense show, Rage Against The Machine @ Glastonbury in 94, followed very closely by the Beastie Boys at the same event. RIP MCA!

Special mention for the Prodigy too for their show at Cambridge Corn Exchange in 95 - on thw way to it I wasn't sure how they owuld come across live, but oh man they blew me away. Can still remember dancing like a nutter to No Good Start the Dance with a drugged up girl in hot pants and a bra with angel wings strapped to her back. fucking awesome.

[Red1676]

[Cerebus_]

Seen alot of great bands over the years.

Last years best ones were Evergrey (front row) and Opeth (got to touch Mikael Åkerfeldts guitar as he dropped it down into the crowd)

This summer is gonna be great aswell. Finally gonna get the rare chance to see the classic German speed metal band Iron Savior, Circle II Circle is gonna have a Savatage set, Iced earth is gonna be fuckin killer! Sabaton always deliver a good show, Meshuggah is gonna be fuckin BRUTAL. And Devin Townsend is probably what I'm looking forward to the most this year. Lol, too tired to actually think of good gigs I've seen, so it came out like this instead :D

[pawnluvguitarist]

I haven't been to many concerts but the best two were both times I saw Brand New. My fav band, put on a great show.

Wish I had a chance to see Led Zep, Pink Floyd, Boston ect Sucks how most of my fav bands are done or dead haha
