I'd have to say the Hives are contenders. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAMZQzDeMaE]The Hives "Walk Idiot Walk" Live (HD, Official) - YouTube[/ame] there's a lot more that don't come to mind right now. anyone?
Queens Of The Stone Age, so killer live. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tmot6lQGXQU&feature=BFa&list=PL2380C70DD9FF87CB][06] Queens of the Stone Age - Feel Good Hit of the Summer (Werchter 2007) *HQ* - YouTube[/ame]
STS9, String Cheese Incident...they play because they love playing. But you have to go back to find greatness live, and this is as high as you can get: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YWOuzYvksRw&feature=related]Led Zeppelin - Achilles Last Stand (Live Knebworth 1979) - YouTube[/ame]
[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fLp63WBV-Ic]Rammstein - Du Hast Live from Volkerball - YouTube[/ame]
Best band I've ever seen live, hands down no contest [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obcDrjPblxs]Meshuggah - Rational Gaze (Live in Tokyo - Alive) - YouTube[/ame]
Rage Against the Machine Rebelution Roger Waters Three Days Grace Nickelback (they had a nice drum solo, Daniel Adaid, for like 10 min that was mind blowing) Two Door Cinema Club The XX have all been really really great band shows!!
[quote name='"aegisisc"']I also like this band........ [/quote] Haha I was hoping somebody would pick linkin park. A lot of people hate on them but honestly they are probably the best live act performers out there. How many other bands sound better live than there studio performances and also perform every sound in a song live with no music playing through a background? Earlier years like live in Texas or rock am ring in the early 00' are amazing. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YvEGGqIsjVg&feature=youtube_gdata_player[/ame]
Lol people on here named linkin park and nickelback...I'm contemplating leaving this forum for good haha.
