Best live performance

[The Iron Ninja]

I've seen John Cleese live, not as good as other comedians I've seen, but that was overshadowed by a feeling of 'Woo! it's John Cleese!'

I wish I had seen Dire Straits live, but I was in nappies when that would have been possible. (barring a reunion tour or something)

Also from what I've seen, I would heavily suggest against seeing videos or watching some weird reunion tour of Pink Floyd, I love Pink Floyd, I really do, but they suck live.
They really suck live.

tho Mike Patton's projects are always good

That made my day have you seen the video of him doing that vocal solo on the Moonchild tour?

But as far as best live show was Evil dead the musical in Toronto a few days ago
and Chris de Burgh live in Ottawa a few years ago

Comedy wise, when I went to see Dylan Moran. The man is a drunken Irish comedy genius!

Musically, I've seen Maiden, A7X, BFMV, Trivium and a hell of a lot more really good metal bands that I can't be bothered to name, but none of them even come remotely close to Megadeth live. The only way I could describe them is incredible.

To be honest, several of the live performances I've been to are "Best", but all for different reasons.

Sigur Ros live. Most emotionally moving concert I've ever been to.
Porcupine Tree live. Just fucking amazing.

..and more.

The only concert I've been to was Rush, but that was amazing. Definitely an experience.

I've seen them 4 times, they always put on a great show.

For me, Roger Waters. It all just came together SO well. It sounded amazing. That or the music of Led Zeppelin feat. Symphony Orchestra. That sounded really good.

rock on the range 2007 and 2008.
In 2007 the best performance was evanescence and in 2008 it was stone temple pilots. Both of those shows were fucking EPIC!

i can top the Evil Dead the musical, just add Bruce Campbell to the mix, i got to see the show with Bruce and then even got to ask him questions

as for Mike Patton's antics on stage, which frankly are legendary, my personal fav to watch was him unzipping his pants and whipping it out telling some idiot, whom he was calling mr mackenzie and a large hockey puck, to suck him off in cops coliseum during the tomahawk/tool tour

and haven't seen him at the festival but i've seen a ton of his videos doing stuff

Sad face....Never been to a concert....Mom thinks I'm to down young....and I'm fucking 15.

Nouvelle Vague no pyro-techniques of laser shows but they were like the sirens of Sirenum scopuli and I and everyone in the audience was in a trance for the entire time, trying to walk through the crash barrier.

Radiohead.

They're better live than they are on their albums, when they want to be =P. At times, the lead singer doesn't sound like he's putting any effort into his singing, which doesn't necessarily make the song sound bad... But it's not exactly what I payed 50-150 dollars for.

@minstauce: I just looked Orbital up on Youtube and listened to TheBox. They sound kinda interesting o.o Can you recommend a good song from em' ?
