Bands that you've seen live

[Skummy]

This must have come up a thousand times, but it's always a nice point of discussion - especially as I'm off to see The Eighties Matchbox B-Line Disaster for the third time this weekend (amongst other things), and starting to get really excited about going to All Tomorrow's Parties in December, so live music is very much on my mind.

Just a bit of background - living where I do, "proper" live music is a bit scarce. No major bands really tour here, and working as I occasionally do as a promoter, I know too well how bloody expensive it is to try and book them. So more often than not, for me, seeing a band is going to involve booking flights to the UK and accommodation, taking time off work, and all the rest of that hassle, so I haven't been to nearly as much as I'd like, and tend to try and do one or two festivals a year and fit in as much as possible that way.

Anyway, thus far I've seen this lot, ignoring "local" and unsigned acts, and trying to stick to a vaguely chronological order;

Bob Geldof

Mike Peters (out of off of The Alarm)

Jools Holland & His Rhythm & Blues Orchestra

....there are probably more, but that's the main ones I remember.

The best one, though obviously difficult to choose, would be between SunnO))), Spiritualized, The Stooges, Television Personalities and The Buzzcocks. SunnO))) was far and away the most intense live experience ever - I wouldn't even say I especially enjoyed, but any band that can make you feel anything as powerfully as SunnO))) leave you feeling somewhat disconcerted and unsure of yourself at the end of their set has to count for something.

Spiritualized came close to a religious experience, it was just mindblowing - they performed "Ladies & Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space" with full orchestra and choir, and it lasted nearly two hours, and was just perfect. It's one of my favourite albums anyway, but live it's just taken to another level. Very moving.

The Stooges, simply because Iggy is the greatest frontman I have ever seen live, and it almost felt like a privilege to witness that. Even at his age, when I thought I'd find the whole thing slightly sad, and almost wish he'd be playing something off his last solo album, he was just fantastic, and he seems to be having so much fun, it's just infectious. I liked him already, but live it suddenly all just makes sense.

TVP are one of my favourite bands, so seeing them live, and it not being half as shambolic and poorly rehearsed as their gigs are known to be was just wonderful. One of very few gigs where I've spent the whole thing at the very front singing along to every single word, practically in tears at some points.

The Buzzcocks were incredible...three encores, and as tight as any band I've ever seen, and I never realised how many of their songs I know and love. You go in thinking "well, they'll play Ever Fallen In Love and Orgasm Addict...", and then they've been playing for an hour, they haven't played either one yet, yet practically every other song has had you cheering to hear it.

As for the worst/most disappointing...My Bloody Valentine were horribly disappointing. Kevin Shields is the least interesting, most miserable frontman on the planet, and neither he nor any of his band can play his music any more, so half the "live" set is taken up with samples from Loveless, then in order to try and prove his worth as a "noise" musician, he just pointlessly played a fifteen minute wall of noise, with no structure or subtlety to it, just bloody loud - so loud, in fact, that it's damaged my ear to the extent that it still bothers me ten months later. Now, I love noise music, and drone, and extreme volume - I already listed SunnO))) as amongst my favourite live shows - but this was terrible. This wasn't music. Any idiot can just turn the amps up as high as they'll go.

The XX are about the most boring band I've ever had the misfortune of seeing live. Just not memorable in the slightest. The Horrors were shit both times I saw them, and Hadouken! are bollocks but I expected them to be.

So...how about you guys?

[Maxx]

Green Day. Yeah, I'm the board's megafan, but they draw tons of praise for their live shows and with good reason. I've seen them 6 times and they played for three hours+ every time. You might not like their music, but they leave it all out there every night and that's exactly what a good live band should do.

I've seen Alkaline Trio nine times since 2005 and they just seem to be getting tighter each time time. They cram a lot of songs into their sets without much talking in between, which is always good and Derek Grant is just awesome to watch live.

I absolutely love Against Me's workman-like approach they've employed every time I've seen them. They just show up and play pretty much nonstop for two hours.

Reel Big Fish are just a fun band to see live, the last time I saw them on Warped Tour they left the stage after every song. And how do you not love a ska cover of "Take on Me"

The last band I saw live was The Gaslight Anthem, and they were wonderful, though their set did get cut short because the venue they were playing in turned into a dance club after 10pm.

Worst band I've ever seen live? Good Charlotte, by far. My Chemical Romance is a close second, I've managed to see them five times despite never wanting to. I feel asleep during the band Zox, but they're unsigned and kind of local, so I guess they don't count.

[Jayzon]

[DMN in the House]

I don't really make it out to a lot of shows, and this lists spans from, roughly 7 years old to the last big thing I was at, in July of this year. I guess DJs count too, if they're big enough.

Barbra Mandrel - the first concert I ever got taken too. Didn't care for it too much, but what are you gonna do when you're seven?

Garth Brooks - actually, really, really fucking awesome live.

Slipknot/Slayer/Sepultura - awesome, awesome show. Saw Mudvayne, before they were known, at this same show. Tattoo the Earth, 2002? Went with my mom, who got in the pit for Slayer.

Funny story, I was supposed to go see KoRn, which was my favorite band at the time, on my 20th birthday, when a good friend surprised me with tickets, but I was too hung over to sit in the car for the drive.

I've also seen the Starkillers, Steve Aoki (with Lil' Jon and Rivers Cuomo), Deadmau5, Benny Benassi, Will I. Am, Above & Beyond, and Armin Van Buren spin at raves, all this year.

Best set was probably Above & Beyond, but I was peaking on a candy flip, so I'm not sure that really counts. Steve Aoki was awesome for him spinning while Rivers Cuomo sang 'Hash Pipe', and Garth Brooks was probably the best show I've seen sober. Will I. Am fucking sucked, even though he was spinning awesome shit. He just wouldn't shut up. It's like, dude, you're in front of 100,000 drug fueled ravers, stop telling us you're from East LA, and that you've been to London, and keep fucking spinning Hendrix and 'Jump Around'. Also, don't spin 'Jump Around' when you're trying to get said ravers to calm down and stop rushing the fences, you ass.

EDIT: I almost forgot, I've also seen the Neville Brothers, which was really fucking awesome, actually.

[Damian WayLNKe]

My Chemical Romance, Alkaline Trio, Reggie and the Full Effect - UMBC Fall 2005

Taking Back Sunday, Suicide City - UMBC Quadmania Spring 2006

Blue Oyster Cult - City of Frederick Fourth of July Celebration 2007

Brand New, Thrice, mewithoutyou - UMBC Winter 2007

Stephen Lynch - UMBC Homecoming Fall 2008

Gold Motel, Mark Rose - Ottobar 7/27/10

I've also seen Lewis Black with John Bowman at UMBC's Homecoming for 2005 and 2010. I'm not much for seeing bands live so I pretty much only go with it's at convenient location or I know it's going to be a fun event. I didn't get into Blue Oyster Cult until I saw them live which is a shame. I would like another chance to see them. It was sort of depressing to see Mark Rose. He was switched to playing last and Gold Motel was promoted as the headliner so everyone left after Gold Motel except for like 10 people.

I would really like to see Ben Folds perform and I'll catch Jukebox the Ghost the next time they come through town. I would also like the opportunity to see a Dismemberment Plan reunion show.

[naiwf]

I used to go to concerts all the time years ago. Off the top of my head (and what I saw in itunes), I can remember seeing the following,

In store appearances: Green Day (The Tower Records riot), Silverchair

PBS used to have these acoustic shows that taped in NYC called Sessions @ West 54th: Ben Folds Five, Cowboy Junkies, Imani Coppola, Natalie Merchant

2 K-Rock Dysfunctional Family Picnics: Blur, Bush, Echo & the Bunnymen, Foo Fighters, Hoobastank, Incubus, Jimmy Eat World, Korn, Luscious Jackson, New Found Glory, Papa Roach, P.O.D., Soul Coughing, System of a Down, The Strokes

Regular concerts: 30 Seconds to Mars, AFI, Bif Naked, Blacklab, Dave Matthews Band, Fiona Apple, Jem, Kittie, KMFDM, L7, Local H, Morcheeba, No Doubt, PIG, Poison, Puddle of Mudd, Robert Randolph & The Family Band, Silverchair, The Offspring, Trust Company

I also saw about a dozen Christian artists/bands at a 4 day festival at something called Creation Festival but couldn't remember half of them by name since I'd never heard of them before: Audio Adrenaline, Delirious?, Newsboys, Project 86, Rebecca St. James, Steven Curtis Chapman, Supertones, Switchfoot, Third Day

[tristy]

I never knew naiwf had such shitty taste in music

Tool

Nine Inch Nails

HEALTH

The Mars Volta

The Beastie Boys

She & Him (2)

Tenacious D

The Flaming Lips

Jay-Z

I think that's it. All of these occurred at Bonnaroo '07, '09 and '10. NIN and She & Him were in '08 and this year, respectively, at their own headlining shows, although She & Him was also at this year's Bonnaroo. I figure, why go to a concert when I have a music festival that happens once a year 25 minutes away from where I live, and I can knock out a handful of shows and be set for the rest of the year?

Although, I'm seeing Godspeed You! Black Emperor in March. Because I highly doubt they'll be at Bonnaroo next year.

[DFF]

Here all the bands I think I've seen, at gigs (headline and support) and festivals that I have kept track of over the years. This starts around 2003, though most of them are from 2007 onwards when I started doing festivals (4 Downloads, 2 Bloodstocks and 1 Tramlines so far).

[Colly]

Its a ridiculous list to be fair which I think I tried to list last time this thread came up, so its probably easier to say that barring newer bands the only bands I'm annoyed that I haven't seen yet are Blur, Teenage Fanclub and a reformed Menswe@r...

[YI]

Far too many and I can't be arsed to rack my brains...I do have who I saw in 2009 and 2010 listed somewhere...if I find them, I'll post it.

[Summers]

This.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Quite a few actually. The ones that stick out in my memory include:

Feeder (supported by My Vitriol) - 1999

Ash (supported by Muse) - 1999

Feeder - 2000

Ladytron

Polysics

Chemical Brothers (first gig of the Come With Us Tour)

Polysics

Underworld

Mew

Muse

The others don't come to my tired mind right now. I did see both a Clash tribute act and a Madness tribute act though - fantastic stuff.

[Timmoru Suzuki]

In brackets are the support acts where I can remember them. I also can't remember off the top of my head most of the Download festival bands that were on earlier in the day, so they'll be more than this:

Buckcherry (Plus two supports)

Electric 6 (Plus three supports)

Shiny Toy Guns

Alestorm (Eden's Curse, The Rotted)

Rammstein (Combi Christ)

Steel Panther

Lynyrd Skynyrd (Gun)

Kiss (Taking Dawn)

Hellyeah

Steel Panther

Airbourne

Anvil (Girl School)

Fozzy (Plus three supports)

Sabaton (Alestorm, Thurorod)

I also have tickets for Bowling For Soup (Supported by A and two other bands), White Wizzard and Volbeat gigs.

Best gig was the Alestorm headliner set, Steel Panther or Kiss. Aerosmith were great at Download, and a 'special' show for me, but I'd like to see them on tour. Rock Sugar also get a mention from Download for being fun as fuck.

Worst was Shiny Toy Guns. Went with a mate for his birthday and they were really terrible. Also, The Rotted were a horrifically bad support act at the Alestorm gig. Covversely, at the same gig, Eden's Curse were great.

Also, I never used to go to gigs much, so all but the first three have been since last December.

[YI]

I also have tickets for Bowling For Soup (Supported by A and two other bands), White Wizzard and Volbeat gigs.

That'll be Forever The Sickest Kids and The Dollyrots (defo's worth a perv)...really good line-up for what it is. Was contemplating going to this tour, but £20 was a little steep given current financial obligations.

I've found my 2009 list;
