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'd have to say Red Hot Chili Peppers, then Alexisonfire and lastly Protest The Hero.

i dunno man. its a hard call. I saw Simple Plan live, and they can really jump around on stage well. also, their guitar players have some really solid power chords in thier songs, so its really great to listen also

wow this is old, but when you saw PJ open for tom petty, did they play all new stuff? and was it in an arena or outside? cause when i saw them in keyarena like 5 years ago it was no where near as good as the shows at the gorge (in WA state) these past two years.
