Best Rock Concert
 

Who do you guys think puts on the best rock show? I've only ever been to one rock show, KISS. They were great but I fell asleep lol. I was only five years old. I go to punk shows all the time but not many rock shows. :drummer:

EverClear :D only concert I been to tho :D

Everclear probably puts on good shows, I am not a fan though.

Well a guy thro his hat on stage and hit Art (lead singer) and Art refunded his money and told him to get out. But they get the crowed involed it was sweet...

The only rock show I've been to was a Lynard Syknard show. It was great. Very cool and relaxed.

I think concerts are okay.. the only one I want to see now is a rap one and that would be EMINEM. But whe I went to the everclear concert, I knew most of the songs, but if I didnt know the song I didnt know what they were saying. Maybe it was ****ty mics, but from now on I prefer to download and listen to my music that way.

I love concerts, I think they are really fun. Except at a punk show I stood up front, no sitting of course, and got kicked in the head by some of the crowd surfers. But it was worth it.

I've been in the center of a few mashpits myself. :D

best concert I've been to is
"Lollapalooza" 2003
oh man it was spectacular with all the biggest names in modern rock music, hehe sure was a good time ;)

i went to a metallica concert up in dc.....it was incredible, one of the best concerts i have ever been to

That's awesome that you were able to go. I'm jealous. :D

Damn, I'm so jealous too. I saw Dropkick Murphys on St. Patty's Day, they were great.
Ozzfest '97 and '98. I will also add Tattoo The Earth and every Pantera concert i've been to.

STP...and Static X

Opeth put on a good show.

yea i went to a metallica concert...i agree they were awesome everything on set was pretty simple but because theyr performance was so good it made it the best plus they played mostly pre load era songs...iv also seen incubus..they were pretty good too an awesome drum solo as well

ive seen muse, radiohead, RHCP, blink 182, SOAD, the zutons and the white stripes live. Radioheads was the greatest ive seen, followed by muse then then the white stripes.

:yeah: Shame you had to spoil it by mentioning Muse in the same sentence

probaly...rise against they had the best album and the best show this year.

Ashlee Simpson New Years Eve Bash with Regis
It just shows how magical these teeny weeny's can be. To be able to lip synch so flawlessly....it's remarkable.

And who can forget Regis?
"Gilman!"
Ah, poor D1ck clark. America has been celebrating the new year with him since Taft was in office.

Mogwai and Sonic Youth, were my best live rock gigs EVER!! Guns n Roses, Greenday (its amazing at least the first time anyway, but they never change their act so it gets boring after that) Morrissey, Explosions in the Sky, Beastie Boys, Liars, Delgados, The Prodigy, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, the Music, Cat Power, Pulp, The Libertines, Queens of the Stone Age, …And You will Know us by the Trail of Dead all put on awesome live shows too.

Oh, and Super Furry Animals are class live too

SFA are class full stop

One of the best shows I went to was Earth,Wind & Fire -Satana ,& Journey in 1976:shycouch:

Nice =] was it exciting?

Definitely Red Hot Chili Peppers at Madison Square Garden.....I was literally 10 feet from Flea. Followed by Rancid and Yeah Yeah Yeahs shows.....

Where is madison square gardens is'nt it in cleveland?

It's in New York bud, nowhere near Ohio.

What he^ said. NY

LOL


about 435 miles 7 hour trip its pretty close

i was not an aerosmith fan when i saw them in philly. they did one of the best shows i ever saw.
the one i liked best was judas priest, when they toured defenders of the faith.

It depends on what makes a show good for you, and though there are many older bands I never got to see live (only saw on video) I could gaurantee put on a sick show, but I'll only answer based on shows I have been to.

In my opinion:

If you enjoy high energy, raw preformances that are as good or better than the record then KoRn was a must see during their KoRn, Life Is Peachy & Follow the Leader albums. KoRn built their fan base of the strength of their live shows so as you can imagine that was a wild show. So good in fact I saw them more than 8 times. Not sure about their live show after, and I am not sure how Head's leaving effected the group dynamic & live preformance. Back in the day they were awesome.

If you like a frontman who's a good showman (along with his band members, theatrics, and a band that plays as good the record sounds Marylin Manson put on a sick sick sick show I loved Manson live both times.

If you just want to rock out to a high energy show of amazing music then Soundgarden, Deftones, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, White Zombie, and Skunk Anansie were amazing shows to see everytime.

U2 are in a class of their own also great live show.

It's hard to pick honestly, because I like quality bands so it's rare that I haven't loved a concert and I haven't been to a rock concert in a while so I am drawing from memory here Lol.

Trying wayyy tooo hard to be cool. Its moshpit, not mashpit! As immortalised by Anthrax and "Caught In A Mosh".

Well, I've only been to metal...but Maiden was pretty much the best.

Rammstein in Nimes 3 years ago, was my first concert ever xD
And in second place Pearl Jam at Rock Werchter..
And behind that one a lot of concerts on Rock Werchter ;)

Slipknot but on one hell of a show. However I saw Mudvayne and they were pretty good however Snot opened for them and they were incredible.

Black Crowes put on a great rock show, so do Drive-By Truckers.

I'm goin to Jethro Tull concert on 22 th may in our city.

Our hopes and expectations~... :laughing:

Hope its gonna be worth seeing

Jon Lajoie

While it may not have been rock it was one of the most enjoyable concerts of my life. You'd see groups of girls who just decided to buy tickets so they didn't have to wait for the club to open in the rain who had NO idea what his songs were about. Watching their mouths drop was more entertaining than him at points, especially during his "Excessively Vulgar Ways to Excuse Yourself To Go To The Bathroom" bit, I was nearly on the floor laughing.

Strapping Young Lad

Caught them at 2006 Ozzfest (pretty much only reason I went to Ozzfest) because they were almost exclusively doing stuff off "The New Black" which is my second favorite SYL album. Also it was my first time ever seeing Devin live and it was well worth the drive and the money.
