Saw them during the Reflektor tour. Fantastic show. First 4 albums are tremendous and now I don't know if I even want to have them.

Who's the best band you've seen live?

Tie between Pantera (VDoP tour) and Pink Floyd (Division Bell tour)...could not be more different in music or venues but both magnificent.
Thought they started to go downhill at Suburbs, and haven't heard anything after Reflektor. tbh I didn't even know what Win Butler had been up to.
Frank Zappa
And then also some small-venue local punk like Naked Raygun.

No surprise if I say Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band. However, OMD are fantastic live.
Also a good few years ago I took my then young ( nine ish) daughter to see Girls Aloud. I was ready to hate them. They put on an amazing show.

The first two bands I saw live were Horslips in 1975 and Thin Lizzy in 1976. Both gigs were brilliant.

Primal scream playing screamadelica live, the stroke first tour and snoop dogg (in the US, which I never appreciated would be a different experience to watching hip hop in the UK with gangs at the time) all good gig
Watched the white stripes at Glastonbury. Massively underrated band, so much noise for 2 people

The Clash, the Jam, Buzzcocks, Joy Division. All exceptional.
However, Killing Joke 13th December1982 at the Warehouse, Liverpool was singularly the best performance of any band I've seen live. Energy, power and volume.
Almost 42 years ago
I was at that Killing Joke gig, you just jogged my memory.
Had Paul Raven been replaced on Bass by then, as I have vague pot memories of massive bass lines, making your teeth rattle !
The Darkness at Mountford Hall was a mental gig, if it was the same gig ?
I remember everyone getting soaked from the fake snow they released when they did " Don`t let the bells ring "
Saw Sigur Ros and Godspeed in Dublin in 2000. Not sure which was supposed to be headlining but they played for about the same time. I went to see Godspeed (who I vaguely knew) but Sigur Ros was a total surprise. Both were amazing.

It was loud, very loud and aggressive and iirc Youth was playing bass. Again to the best of my memory it was to support Revelations' release.
I met mates afterwards in the Spanish bar and ended up in the Grafton
I woke up at 5am horizontal on the wall outside our front door and the first thing I noticed was the milkman had been and so too had the midnight monkey who stole my money, messed up my clothes and sh*t in my mouth. I bet you've met him
