    The Dresden Dolls/The Ditty Bops. Oct. 2004. NYC.

    You saw the Dresden Dolls? Lucky cow.

    For me i'd have to say Goldfinger are the best band live. They're just ALL about the crowd they're playing to. Amazing bunch of guys.

    Hmm...

    Radiohead at the "tent tour" in London. Outstanding.

    Funeral for a Friend a few years ago in Southampton, Portsmouth and Taste of Chaos tour in Brighton.

    Reel Big Fish in various places, seen them about a billion times, got more amazing each time I went.

    I've seen many others, but none match up to those.

    Would like to see Rammstein at some point, hopefully they'll be coming to Germany some time soon.

    I sure hope so for you!! You really have to go, it's a great concert :) Seen them 3 times now :)

    Rammstein for the energy and special effects (intense!)

    I also would add Iron Maiden for wicked concerts and KISS for the energy and special effects

    It's a tie between David Guetta and Basement Jaxx. I've seen bigger people, but those two always stand out because they were so into the crowd. Felt like I was attending a DJ set by an old friend.

    I used to have a HUGE crush on Barry Manilow. A few years ago I got to meet him in person at a book signing and then my son and I went to his concert In Seattle. It was fantastic! The man can put on a great concert!

    11/21/03 Forum Theatre, Metuchen New Jersey, Neal Morse, Testimony. I think I sat with my mouth open the entire time. Everything from hard rock to gospel was played. The combination of artists on the stage was phenomenal! The individual artists were fantastic on their own, but combined it was just eargasmic! I have to admit I wasn't paying much attention to the lyrics, the musical artistry had me spellbound. The show opened with Neal playing acoustic guitar slowly walking through the theatre using a headset mic. I heard the music over the sound system, but didn't see him until he was standing right beside me. The theatre was completely quiet while they played...you didn't even hear a cough.

    I have seen some great concerts, but that one topped the cake for sheer artistry.
