The Best Concerts To Attend

[plastikprozak]

Warped tour

what else?

[LikeSwingSets]

my favourites have been thrice, thrice, the cat empire, architects (w/ iwabo and abrb), underoath (w/ oh, sleeper),.

the best would've been the thrice and dear hunter shows in america, my 2 favourite bands :(

[Jake Denning]

oh for pete's sake.....

[sleepyseanzzz]

less than jake is always fun

new found glory is always fun too

set your goals/four year strong/fireworks/the swellers was amazing

blink 182

warped tour sucks - only good sets this year were less than jake, nofx, and a few others.

[jeremypeele]

reel big fish puts on a skatastic show.

[KatieKutthroat.]

Big D & the Kid's Table are a lot of fun. Agreed on RBF.

lol. I saw them in the late-90's and they we're GOD-AWFUL. Sloppy, out-of-tune, couldn't hold a note at all, and it was just a really terrible experience. So, no, not "/endthread".

Seriously, your trendy internet jargon just makes you look like a jackass. It's an opinion, get off your high-horse, fanboy.

Besides, if you have "/" you don't need to type "end". "/" MEANS "end".

STFU GTFO noob. lolzz


No but seriously. This past Blink tour was insane.

[Rubato]

The Weakerthans always put on a flawless show.
Less Than Jake are one of the best live bands still around...

and a Radiohead show is more of a religious experience than an actual concert.

[warstory]

Everyone needs to experience Radiohead live

The only one i can agree with in here based on personal experience. I saw Blink on their current tour and they were god awful, Weezer out performed them by a mile.

[yellowhouse]

Everyone needs to see Sigur Ros live.

[jbaseball44]

Would love to see Sigur Rós live, god that would be incredible.

[xerickx24]

everyone so far has named less than jake while they do put on an awesome live show saw them up close and personal at midnight madness i surprised no one has mentioned streetlight manifesto a very consistent and very fun show. As well as Every Time I Die, Cancer Bats, four year strong, set your goals, and against me!

Wow. Run-on sentence, much?

[ThisIsNotDan]

I had alot of fun when the GigLife and NFG tours came through this year. the final Starting Line tour was a blast as well. I don't get out to as many shows as I'd like to

[ThisIsNotDan]

oh and I don't care if it's a "concert" or not, but Blue Man Group is an amazing experience

Disagree on Taking Back Sunday. They're fun to watch, but Adam just can't sing live.

Bought tickets to see them in January yesterday :)

Seeing them tomorrow, so geeked :) It's only them though, for $13 I'd expect an opener but you win some, you lose some.

[KatieKutthroat.]

It'll be worth it. They're a lot of fun. I actually prefer seeing just them since they play more and they're likely in a small little club, allowing for the best fan interactions.

Anybody that hasn't experienced The Chariot live needs to embark. It truly is something to see even if you don't like their music.

how long have you been in their band?

hahaha totally kidding. i'm not really a dick. i just wanted to say that before someone else did. happy thanksgiving.

[voncorn]

Truth. I'm not a huge fan of their music, my friend dragged me to one of their shows, the intensity factor was only outdone by Converge.

[jbaseball44]

The Flaming Lips
Lips would probably be quite the experience.

[ilikesound93]

jealous you got to go to a show on that tour

[shes.a.ghost]

That I've seen...

1. Flaming Lips
2. Mute Math

Underoath normally has a great live show too. But it wouldn't be cool to list them now would it?

i would say shut yo mouf... bands on warped tour suck indeed but warped tour itself does no sucking

Well my point wasn't really about their music but the live show. Sorry if you didn't catch that.

[Mibabalou]

thursday always does a good job

[LikeSwingSets]

met sam carter from architects too :3

[kbi the crowing]

nice
they put on a really good performance when I saw them with ETID

[anthonydarko]

Slayer puts on an awesome show if you're into that kind of thing.

[LikeSwingSets]

nice

Aye, i saw them yeaaars ago supporting as i lay dying too, they were the first support out of 3 and were by far the best.

[Chrisj182]

Army of Freshmen put on amazing show, and it's pretty easy to catch a show somewhere, they tour a lot.

[gjpinizz]

warped tour sucks...

[Nourez]

Glassjaw really blew me away when they opened for Brand New. Blink puts on a great live show as well, though they aren't the best on a technical level.

[jco3]

Everyone needs to see Sigur Ros live.

This.

I haven't seen them, but I hear it's something to behold.

[SophGod]

gaslight anthem / thrice / alkaline trio / rise against was the best show i've ever been to.

[Getup and Dance]

Gwar

[yellowhouse]

This.

I haven't seen them, but I hear it's something to behold.

More of a religious experience than a show.

[Alaina <3]

Green Day-energetic, fast-paced, crazy, and fucking amazing.

no i caught it.
they're a one trick pony and now i cant wait to not see them again.

[xashkox]

Mute Math is by far the best live band I've ever seen. I also really enjoyed Showbread when I saw them a few years ago. And of course, I simply can't say enough about P.O.S. I became a fan after seeing him on a totally random tour in 2007, and he continues to amaze me with his ability to engage even the toughest crowd of hipsters & scenesters.

[Jookl]

Flogging Molly, for all Punk fans, this is a must. Last time, they played for 2h and a half, most energetic show I've been in my Life.
Streetlight Manifesto, since it's probably my favorite band... hehe
Brand New, I was kinda impressed by their performance live, they almost sound better than on the cd, Especially the Singer's voice, that rly blew me off.
RBf - always a fun show to attend.
The Johnstones, doesnt sound that good on cd but god, theses guys deliver a "show". If they pass by your town, definately go for it, you won't regret it.

[Linkmastergcn]

Muse
Third Eye Blind
Weezer
Blink
Green Day
Rise Against
Say Anything
Patent Pending also puts on such a sick show. I've seen them 5 or 6 times and they just give it their all, everytime. the final show they played with their old singer was crazy.

[|adr3naLine|]

Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band.

By far the most energetic and fun show I've been too, which says a lot because I was in seats and I hate seats. My mom told me I wasn't allowed to go to college before I saw them, and she was right lol. He played for 2.5-3 hours straight.

[rising_tied]

Green Day-energetic, fast-paced, crazy, and fucking amazing.

/end thread
LMAO.

Uhh. Shit I usually enjoy local shows at certain venues like Matchbox. Theres a certain feeling of being on stage surrounded by a bunch of people screaming into a mic while the lead singer sings on the backup vocal mic.

Gwen Stacy shows are dope if everyone is vibing to it.
Madina Lake and Inept local shows were amazing.

I enjoy warped because even if theres not a band you like playing theres a pit to act a foool in somewhere.
Slipknot used to put on one hell of a show

[_themaineislove]

The Maine
they put on an amazing show live
you wont wanna miss it for anything :)
myspace.com/themaine
they will be back touring in marchhhh
dates announced soon...

[xScrewed@Birthx]

Rise against and circa suvive have sum very exciting shows... At least the ones I've been too.

[KatieKutthroat.]

Absolutely. Bruce was everything I hoped he'd be when I saw him live, and he is by far the most youthful sixty year old man I've ever seen.

[anthonydarko]

Just wait till you see Dillinger Escape Plan live, it'll blow your mind.

[THE_SICKEST]

no i caught it.
they're a one trick pony and now i cant wait to not see them again.
I wouldn't consider having an energetic show a "trick", Its just how they perform. You're not into it. Others are. You not liking it doesn't mean that they don't put on an awesome show. I believe that's what this thread is about.

[BigG1392]

A Day To Remember was probably one of the best bands I've seen live. Jeremy's voice was shot, you could tell, but they still put on one hell of a show. The crowd went completely wild.

Although a lot of people don't like them here (from what I've seen) Cobra Starship put on one hell of a show. They definitely outperformed Boys Like Girls on the OP Tour this year. The same goes for 3OH!3. A lot of haters, but they put on one very entertaining, energetic show.

Also from the OP Tour, VersaEmerge was pretty awesome. The crowd was unfortunately dead during this set, but Sierra was flawless on vocals. Probably one of the best flat-out vocal performances I've seen.

Chiodos was fun even though I knew none of their music when I saw them.

[djstarscream11]

Tool was great, their light show was completely mind boggling.. Metallica also had a very awesome show with their pyros and lights. And Sounds of the underground 2007 was one of my favorite concerts being at the front of the mosh for the whole thing start to finish. Gwar multiple times is always a good time getting covered in crap looking all fucked up on your way home after the show.
