Best Live shows? Shows you wanna see?

[Fire_At_Will]

I'm not very fortunate until recently to see some of my favorite bands, and allot of the ones I wish I could of seen have broken up by now. So I was wondering, what shows / bands YOU personally would reccomend to see that you have already seen & also wich ones you would wanna see the most.

So here is my list!


Bands i've seen:

1. Motion City Soundtrack - (This band blew me away, and are a million times better live then there already amazing recordings)
2. Socratic - (even though I only got to see them play a small set, they are infact incredible live)
3. Steel Train - (Better live then there studio albums!)
4. Boys Night Out - (They rocked my fucking ass off)
5. Quietdrive - (I love this band, and they put on an amazing show for us)
6. Scary Kids Scaring Kids - (They have an amazing show and really go out and try to get the audience to have a great time as well)


Bands I want to see:

1. Brand New
2. Halifax
3. Finch ( I hope there back for awhile instead of that one show thats been announced)
4. Plus 44 (I never got to see Blink either :( ....)
5. New Found Glory



Bands I will probally never get to see:

1.Blink-182
2. Something corporate
3. Midtown
4. Hidden in plain view


+ many more





I wonder if anyone has the same tastes I do lol?

[TheOtherAndrew]

Flogging Molly is the best live show I've ever seen.


As for bands you want to see, New Found Glory is great.

[Whimsikill]

MC Chris! Go to an MC Chris show!
I would also recommend seeing As I Lay Dying because for a metal band they replicate their sound great. The Matches kick ass as well.
I heard FF5 has a good live show, I'm gonna check that out soon. Tool too, but I'm less likely to see that.
I wish I could've seen Korn in their prime, and the Clash.

[cfear]

Boogdish is great live, so are The Lawrence Arms. I still want to see Andrew Jackson Jihad, I've heard they kill.

And yes, Flogging Molly is fucking great.

[TheOtherAndrew]

I still want to see Andrew Jackson Jihad, I've heard they kill.
I've never seen them either but I saw this and it really got my hopes up.

thrice anybody!?!?...saw them and brand new the other day and thrice put on the best live show i've probably ever seen!!!...yep

[Eighty8Percent]

People have mixed emotions about a Modest Mouse concert, but I have to say the one I saw was amazing.
Also Portugal. The Man are excellent live too.

I hope to see The Fall of Troy as well as explosions in the sky before Noember ends.

[emericagal182]

definantly new found glory, they're always fun. i was fortunate enough to see blink before they broke up and it was amazing.
i also recommend all time low, set your goals, and reel big fish they all put on good shows

[Chris Reynolds]

SKSK is NOT a good live band at all...

[sevinw0rds]

I just saw Mute Math last night in Ft. Lauderdale...while I'm not sure they get the award for best ever, they are definitely up there. Such an unbelievable display of calculated madness, everything about their live show is just through the roof.

Other bands that always leave me jaw-dropped are dredg, copeland, glassjaw and the dillinger escape plan.

I missed my chance to see The Police in July, and I probably won't get another :-(

Live bootlegs and a live DVD are not enough for me when it comes to that band.

Same goes for Hot Water Music/Chuck Ragan

[versus_god]

Seconded. Also, Dillinger Four.

[myantiyou]

1. Motion City Soundtrack - (This band blew me away, and are a million times better live then there already amazing recordings)?

glad to hear about this. I'm psyched to go to their show at San Francisco on the 30th.

[hypa_dude]

Interesting. Maybe it was a bad night for them.

[resrchmnkygrl6]

I've seen many bands live.
But one band that has changed my life [literally] was/is BIFFY CLYRO. I honestly got high from listening to them. It might have been the mary-jane seeping in from outside the venue, but, damn, would I like to go on in life believing it wasn't.

I also saw SULLIVAN. I think I was just mesmerized because he was serenading and caressing me. Good live singer too. He could prolly fit into my pants [size zero], and that was mesmerizing inself. Oh!! And don't forget his extremely attractive emo hair.

CONFIDE. The singer was bleeding from the nose and the shoulder and he kept singing. He claimed he hit himself in the nose with the mic and that's why he was bleeding. I'd like to believe him because the band was giving away the new testament after their set. Bahah.

[tv_rocker]

Gym Class Heroes are great live. Such great energy, its contagious. But they are playing some special instores and i wonder what they'll sound like in such a small place. I wonder if they'll go acoustic or just go all out like normal. anyhow, i'll be at the one in SD! see everyone there!

Sat. 11/24 - Albuquerque
Sun. 11/25 - Phoenix
Sat. 12/1 - San Diego
Sun. 12/2 - Las Vegas

I may have already posted in here but Radiohead and The Cinematic Orchestra are 2 acts I'd like to see perform.

As for best shows I've seen, Iron & Wine is certainly up there if you enjoy concerts on more than a "they sure move a lot on stage" level.

[After Hours]

MC Chris! Go to an MC Chris show!
I would also recommend seeing As I Lay Dying because for a metal band they replicate their sound great. The Matches kick ass as well.
I heard FF5 has a good live show, I'm gonna check that out soon. Tool too, but I'm less likely to see that.
I wish I could've seen Korn in their prime, and the Clash.
I saw the Matches yesterday, again. Awesome stuff.
I really want to see FF5, even though I don't like their music.

Blessthefall
ABR
Suicide Silence
ATL

Shows I'd want to see;

Elysia
Mychildren Mybride
IKTPQ
Basically all of Ed Butcher's bands (past and present)

[TheVsed]

Patrick Wolf

i want to see:
Radiohead (next year!!!)
Justice
Defiance, Ohio

[PeaceFrecks]

These are all of the shows I've seen in 2007.

Anberlin(x2)
Relient K(x3)
Family Force 5
Hawk Nelson(x2)
The Afters
tobyMac
Bayside
Jonezetta
Mae(x2)
Sherwood
Hellogoodbye
The Secret Handshake
Boys Like Girls
The Rocket Summer
OkGo
Motion City Soundtrack(x2)
The Spill Canvas
Metro Station

Contrary to popular belief, Anberlin is absolutely AMAZING live. Stephen's voice is even more amazing live. I've been with them since Blueprints, but this year was the first year I was allowed to go to shows, and they're great.

Family Force 5 also puts on an amazing live show. I got to see them this summer, without their lead singer (Soulglow) and they were still awesome. They really get the crowed involved. I've also met them, and they're extremely cool guys, super nice too.

Hellogoodbye doesn't sound as good live, but they put on a really good show.

Everyone else is pretty good, but none of them really stand out as much as Anberlin and FF5.

:thumbup:

Is Metro Station any good?

[PeaceFrecks]

Yea! I actually had never even heard of them before, but they opened for Anberlin/Mae/Motion City and they were a good way to get the crowed pumped. They had me really impressed, until they sung one song (I can't remember the name of it) but it was horrible. It was all about sex and just...ugh. But other than that, they're amazing!

[White Noise]

Brand New/Thrice/mewithoutYou was absolutely amazing live.

I'd love to see mewithoutYou. I'm glad to hear they're good live.
Has anyone seen The Almost?
I REALLY want to see them.

They are very good live.
I've seen The Almost too, there meh. I was dragged by some friends to see them.

[PeaceFrecks]

I've heard mixed reviews about The Almost.
Kind of disappointing that they're not all positive since I love their cd.
But I guess not every band can be fantastic live. :/

Underoath is probably better live.
I've seen them about 4-5 times, never seized to amaze me.

[PeaceFrecks]

I want to see Underoath too.
I wasn't really interested in them, but then some friends of mine went to their show last month and after hearing about how great they are, I really wanna see them.

Yea, sucks that The Almost doesn't tour much. I think they came to Orlando in November but tickets were like $30 and I didn't care for the other bands they were with.
Hopefully they'll come back soon so I can see them for myself. lol.

Well note that Aaron is in Underoath, and they have a number of tourdates. So they can't really conflict, unless they put The Almost on tour a long with Underoath.

[rockonclndstn.x]

i like the band Dreams of University.
they're local.
i dont think anyone outside of the midwest has heard of them.
:(
they had a concert at a local venue tonight. i couldn't go.
i'm sad.

[PeaceFrecks]

Well note that Aaron is in Underoath, and they have a number of tourdates. So they can't really conflict, unless they put The Almost on tour a long with Underoath.

True. I don't know how Aaron does it, 2 bands at once.
Maybe they'll both be at 08 Warped (doubtful). Can you say 2fer? haha.

[Starbursting]

True. I don't know how Aaron does it, 2 bands at once.
Maybe they'll both be at 08 Warped (doubtful). Can you say 2fer? haha.

They did that this past summer.
But I can understand his perspective, and by being a drummer in one band and vox in a band with basically the same guys but just in different positions.
It's a lot to do two sets, especially when it's drums and then vocals. lol

But it's a possibility that they'll both show at '08.

Dang. I'm so pissed I missed Warped this summer. All of my favorites were there. Ohwell.
Yea, especially during Warped cause it's during the summer, outside, and most cities are like 900 degrees.
My luck they won't come to the Orlando area one. lol.

I'm trying not to miss anymore.
I missed '07 & '06, I'm pretty sure.
I know for a fact their was a 2 year absence of Warped in my life :-(
But it's a really great social event.

[rockonclndstn.x]

yeah i hope i can go to this upcoming warped.
it'll be kickass if i could.

I hate hearing about it and being like "Well I couldn't go cause blahblahblah."
I'm buying tickets asap.
Anberlin and FF5 better come to Orlando.

Half way through the year, they should have most of the bands signed to go.
So you could check the Warped Tour site.

Even better, I get e-mail updates. lol.
But I haven't checked the actual site in a while.
So maybe I should.

Oh, that's a great way to go about it. :-D
I hate checking my AOL e-mail, because I have my Facebook, Stickam, and MySpace getting updates like 24/7.
Might just get a G-mail for that kindof stuff.
But keep me posted. :-)

[noselove]

Yea, myspace is gay about telling you about everything. lol.
But the Warped updates are great, because they tell you about all of the contests and Battle of the Bands news too.
I definitely will keep you posted.

The Vandals sucked; really. Also, some of these I didn't intend to see, it was only because of another band on this list playing with them.

My favorite was The Shins. They played a four song encore, even asking each other "what are we supposed to play next?" or "what do we play next". It was just a very "chill" show.
The second would be Shiny Toy Guns who put on a good live show, and they came back out after their drummer was throwing up some. A lot of these bands were pre-June 2007 so it was before the rush of new albums came out. But my two favorites were not, those were recent.

I would like to see The Graduate, The Early November (if I ever could), MewithoutYou (possibly), and Jack's Mannequin. I can't think of any others right now.
And I am going see Ima Robot next weekend. I would go to My Chemical Romance/Saves The Day, the same weekend but I would only be going to see Saves The Day and I do not want to pay $38 for an opening band I can see at a later date. Sorry.
I missed my share of bands too: Blink 182, Sum 41, Rock Kills Kid, The Fray, All American Rejects, 30 Seconds To Mars, Three Days Grace, and Brand New (I was at camp during that one). Some of these I didn't want to see but I did miss them.

Oh man, you're in for one heck of a show! I went to the Anberlin/MCS tour in October. It's fantastic!

How is SOTY live?

Yay! I can't wait to go !

SOTY live is the most amazing thing you will ever experience. It will rip your face off. Sex.

Underoath is okay. Not the greatest.

[SprungMonkey]

Monty Are I put on a fantastic show for being relatively unknown. When I saw Bullets and Octane a few years ago they tore it up as well.

[Starbursting]

Underoath is okay. Not the greatest.

I've seen them live far too many times.
I'd still see them again for the hell of it.

I saw Monty Are I, back when they were just Monty. They were impressing for not being that big.
