I love going to concerts and I'm looking for advice on who to see. What bands/artists are just phenomenal live? I'd prefer that if you answer, you have actually seen them live, but testimonials from others are fine. I like pretty much any type of music. Thanks!

They usually play at small clubs, you can stand wherever you want, right close up by the stage.
They're very entertaining live.
They sound great.
But they don't appeal to everyone. But if you like the sorta 'hard rock' music, then you'd probably like them.
Their songs are just about monsters, zombies, and just plain horror stuff, usually.
And I've seen them live, so I'm speaking from experience.
And after almost every show, the entire band comes out and talks to the fans. And they're some of the nicest people. ^_^
And also; Marilyn Manson.
I know not everyone likes Manson, but he's definitely a showman. Puts on a fantastic show, speaking from experience and also seeing many videos and talking to other fans that have seen them live. [ GhoulOnParade's advice column | Ask GhoulOnParade A Question ]
uber_awesome answered Saturday May 3 2008, 1:44 am: ok.
the white stripes are amazing live, but they're not currently touring.
i suggest the foo fighters.
also, the raconteurs. they're amazing. just utterly stupendous. jack white is a god on the guitar.
just saying.
and whoever that was that was talking about the jonas brothers and nickelback and shit, FYI: "And on the eighth day, god took a huge dump and called it nickelback."
its in the bible. [ uber_awesome's advice column | Ask uber_awesome A Question ]
Adri answered Saturday May 3 2008, 12:33 am: I've heard the Dave Matthews Band is amaaaaazing live...I really want to go see them! If you're up for something different, and kind of insane, Gogol Bordello is pretty crazy live (you can look em up - they're pretty interesting =P) [ Adri's advice column | Ask Adri A Question ]

denialsam answered Tuesday April 29 2008, 6:28 pm: if you're into general rock/alternative, The Offspring, Foo Fighters, and 311 are all veterans of the concert scene and put on amazing shows. Another great thing about these bands is that their shows are usually long and well worth the money.
if you're into lesser known bands, definitely go see Bane or Circa Survive. Circa Survive especially likes to incorporate props and intricate lighting setups.
festivals like Warped Tour and the Virgin Mobile Fest are also great, the atmosphere is all about the music and you can see many great bands all in one long day. [ denialsam's advice column | Ask denialsam A Question ]
