Default Best Live Show...?

I just recently saw Flaming Lips for the second time on Thursday. I must say, they get better every time I see them. One of my favs was the Yeah Yeah Yeah song (http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...lips+yeah+yeah -video of it live).

They do some crazy shit. If they ever come around, I suggest you see them.

I digress. The point of this thread is, what was YOUR favorate live show?

A lot of people are going to hate...but Metallica put on a kick ass show. Chevelle are awesome live, too. Godsmack was one of my favorites, too. Sully & the Drummer did a duet drum solo on 2 drum sets, it was bad ass.

Nine Inch Nails, Rage Against the Machine, and Metallica put on the best shows I've ever seen.

And of reasonably major bands, the worst was Powerman 5000. They opened for Korn/Metallica back in like 2000, and sucked donkey balls.

Kiss ranks at the high end of shows I have seen and I have seen them twice.

Janes Addiction really works the crowd well and makes a fun show.

Primus back in the club days was kickass, I have seen them in larger venues and wasn't as impressed really.

Bloodhound Gang in small venues is great, large venues doesn't have the same effect.

Wow. A lot of heavy stuff here. I actually saw Godsmack/Puddle of Mud/Oasis once. I do not know why, as I am not really into THAT heavy of stuff. It was a good show, I guess. I am just not too into the typical rock concert stuff. After seeing Flaming Lips, the whole idea of concert was changed for me. It was like a celebration of whatever-the-fuck-you-want. Orgasmic...
