Best Live Band YOU'VE seen

For me it has to be the Flaming Lips. The music was great and there was so much going on (screens, balloons, confetti, Wayne Coyne in his own balloon). In second place comes Kings of Leon, who play with tons of energy and make every person in the crowd believe its 1976 and they're drunk.

I would love to see them live. Preferably in a theater setting, but any would do.

boys night out^^^ someone said way up there....are you kidding me? unless you are talking like 4-5 years ago, you must be deaf. ive seen them a couple of times in the last couple of years, and i havent lasted more than 2 songs in, they arent even trying anymore. they just kept screwing up and laughing about it.

anyway....some of the best live bands ive seen....lion of judah, risky business, and agnostic front

The Beautiful Girls in Tofina BC. Super tiny maybe 100 people. it was mindblowing. what made it the best was we didnt have tickets and we lucked out by offering the band manager cash for tix and he let us in for free. we chilled with the band and got free drinks.
