Goes without question. Smile

Also a personal favorite, Pink Floyd's The Wall in Berlin. Love it that they build that wall throughout the concert and then tear it down at the end. Smile Luckily managed to see one of these a while back when Roger Waters was touring with an updated version of the show. It was scaled down to fit the venue, but it was still great. Smile



(Broken into 10 minute pieces, so I just link the first one.)

What really impressed me live were these I think:

(anything from them actually)



(more like the whole album)
(well, this is just an example, because anything from them is just as good! there's a reason... well many actually, hehe... why they're my favorite band!)

There are probably more, but these I always remember.

Also, what SpykeZ said! Pretty much all their songs are like that actually. Such a shame that bitch betrayed them... or at least that's the story. Sad

At least the old Nightwish went with a big bang:

Big fan of live stuff, especially when bands sound as good or better live as they do on albums. Sadly, not a lot of bands or artists can consistently do that.

Eagles:
-
-

These are both from Hell Freezes Over, their recent Farewell I Tour is just as good with a different intro to Hotel California. Sadly all the clips of it on Youtube are getting removed, but both concerts are fairly easy to download. No flashy show from them, just music sounding as good as it does on the albums. I actually saw them live in Antwerp a few years ago (part of the Farewell I Tour) and if I get another chance, I'm going again. They're ridiculously good live and it was well worth my money.


Two versions of Nothing Else Matters
-
-

Metallica aren't as consistently good as Queen was or Eagles are, but when they have a good day...holy shit Very Happy


Dutch and certainly not to everybody's liking:
- (was their final concert before splitting up). Song never had a proper video either, the video and radio version were recordings of their performance at Pinkpop 2000. Can't find a version where the audio isn't fucked though Sad
- for good measure (from their "goodbye" concert, you can hear she's emotional) Smile


And then there's a whole crapton of singled out performances I love. Also a lot of covers of popular songs in there, and I often like them without even liking the original song.
- .
- (artists are invited to this show and then asked to cover a Top40 song right there - Caro somehow always manages to make it work, I love her own music as well but since it's 20's/30's stuff..probably not to your liking Laughing)
-
-
- (from Almost Unplugged, pretty brilliant)
- - stumbled upon this a couple of years ago and they do this live as well (picked this video because it's the one with the best sound I could find).
- (w/ Mark Knopfler, at Music for Montserrat, which is pretty good as a whole).
- Knopfler, Clapton, Sting and Collins. 'Nuff said.
- - whole concert is pretty damn good though; Serious Hits Live, 1990 in Berlin (so the Wall had only just fallen really)


God I need to stop now, there's so many more Very Happy

Edit: as you can see btw, I'm a bit of a sucker for acoustic stuff and lots of pre-90's in there Razz

Saner is not being serious. Unless its the subject of Santa!

And for the Dutch among us, one more:

For the non Dutchies: the lyrics to the song are funny as hell and obviously it's very fast. He actually fucks up at 1:20 but just keeps going and recovers Very Happy
