Best Live Band - Page 4

66olds442 · 03-07-2011, 05:16 PM

LIVING SACRIFICE (comeback tour) w/ Demon Hunter, The Famine, Inhale/Exhale, Oh, Sleeper

Small venue with less than 200 people, amazing bands up close and personal.

I really want to see Megadeth before Dave gets too old to play.

Rush, best live band, i dont think ive ever seen a bad concert, going to see them April 10th at the garden in NY, probably have seen them at least 100 times since 1982.

Chris98SS · 03-07-2011, 07:20 PM

Red Hot Chili Peppers. And as badgebunny said, Muse.

Sorry, can't just pick 1!

2011ss/rs · 03-07-2011, 08:47 PM

KISS , ZZ TOP, Kid Rock

CamaroPilot · 03-07-2011, 09:19 PM

Rush

dianeokie · 03-07-2011, 11:01 PM

Rush seems to win the popular vote right now!

For a small venue, a little band that just broke up gets my vote, Cross Canadian Ragweed...they had fun and so did the audience. I think a concert I will never forget is Peter Frampton when I was 16 (showing my age too). "Do You Feel Like I Do" was really controversial at the time and they wouldn't play it on the radio!

I agree Rush is awesome live! But Pink Floyd is the total show. My hubby saw then with me Vandy, in LA and in Germany - jealous!

Pink Floyd is awesome as well. The Wall was amazing, and I saw them also for all the concerts they did after that in Seattle, including Radio KAOS by Roger Waters. I got (and still get) pretty emotional when I watched (not live) their Live8 performance and saw the entire group play together for the last time ever.

Great stuff...

I've also seen Alan Parsons Project open for Yes at a Winery here in Seattle that was a pretty damn good concert.

It's always been tough for me to choose between Rush and Pink Floyd as my favorite. I guess I'm on a Rush kick because they are coming out here July 2nd to The Gorge, which is an awesome venue for any band.

Neil wrote in his book "Ghost Rider" the following about a concert I attnded out there:

In May of 1997, on the Test for Echo tour, Rush played a concert at The Gorge, an outdoor ampitheatre overlooking the treeless banks of the Columbia, which rippled westward from the backstage area in muscular bulges of yellow grass. In early evening, the air's perfect clarity played infinite shadings of light over the simple, dramatic landscape, and we took the stage in front of about 20,000 people (one of our largest crowds ever) just as the slow sunset dimmed into the cloudless, transparent twilight - soon overpowered by the colored stage lights, follow spots, and video screens, and overlooked by a rising half moon. It was the most beautiful setting in which I had ever performed. - Neil Peart
