Best band you have ever seen live

well for me it would have to be a few bands
Wash (awesome live act)
Blindspott (they nearly broke the stage and everytime i see them live it just keeps on getting better and better)
Incubus (when i saw them with creed)

Forums: The Bar,

Best live gigs...
Incubus at Welly Town hall.. That was massive.. totally awesome..
aannd...
Ejector at Welly Rockquest this year.. Nothing like climbing stacks & nakedness to get a crowd going... It was great! :)

I'd have to agree with the Incubus one, and not just coz i am the worlds biggest Incubus fan... I saw them in Auckland when they played with Creed (ugh) and they went off. I wish i was able to go to the Welly gig...how long did they play there for?

Ummm.. I dont remember it that well.. But maybe like.. 2 hours? maybe more.. maybe less... i wasn't really paying attention to the time

yeah, it was like fucken two hours straight. everyone was jumping and shit the whole time. SO MUCH ENERGY!!!!!

i agree with the incubus thing - they fucken rocked.

// Ejector at Welly Rockquest this year

i think you must be getting them confused with "the lady bugs" :) Ejector didn't play at the rockquest.

Sorry.. the lady bugs, then...

you know they're pretty much the same...

thats how rumours get started...

wash-the big top
incubus-at creed

and soon to be......CHILIS AND ROACH

Pacifier (after they'd become Pacifier)
Fucking brilliant live.

Degrees k

Tadpole!!! No matter how many times i see them!!!
God damm wicked live shows they put on! So much energy!
go Tadpole!!!

http://tadpole.co.nz ]

yeah tadpole ROCK when they perform ive only seen them once and they made the crowd go wild!! and i also got to sing "no man" with renee and ive also got a lot of signed tadpole stuff for free after that gig!

Go tadpole!!

Blindspott just get better live!!!!

Blindspott and Tadpole are shit. Blindspott are a synchonised "Bad boy" boy band...I mean whats up with the blue contacts in that vid? Lame as. And Tadpole...well they try but they just don't sit right and don't seem to have a "sound" or even a "progressive sound". The best bands live that I've seen are tied for first place....
#1: Salmonella Dub
Oh my god, fan-fucking-tastic.
#1: The D4
Heartbreaker and Get Loose are body shakers and their rendition of Pirate Love is so fucking sexy.
Anyone who says otherwise...well, just you watch yourself!

Blindspott ROCK!!!

p.s. they were white contacts not blue!

8 Foot Sativa @ Real Groovy kicked ass!!!

This time justin didnt pass out. :D
Shame it was such a small stage but they played pretty much there whole album and a couple of new ones.

New albums gonna kick ass 2 :)

Salmonella Dub
Fat Freddy's Drop
Blackseeds
shihad, back in the day
the datsuns

yeah salmonella dub are wicked

Tool are fucking brilliant live.

Hehe, I'll go with that.
Although... I widh they'd interact with the crowd. Make eye contact, walk around & look @ them. It's so cool being able to say "He looked at me! He looked at me!"
Lol.

AC/DC

Straightjacket Fits at Mountain Rock many moons ago...

Good Charlotte last year around this time were bloody good, they interacted really well with the audience and the supporting acts were wicked too

Two of the many gigs that leap to mind:
The Dirty Three at Orientation a few years back were just excellent...
And Jakob blowing the sound system at the BDO this year was a brilliant thing to witness/feel.

jakob didn't blow the soundsystem the generator fucked out just at the end of their set.

truebliss town hall. they played all the hits.

Truebliss was a wicked live act.
Do you think they'll do a reunion tour? I can only hope.

oh, wow

i hope one day we get a video released called TRUE BLISS - XXXPOSED.
and we get to see erika and carly fighting and it gets so heated that, oh my goodness, their clothes just seem to fall off. then the little blonde one walks in and says "my,my,my..what have we here" whilst holding the most scary looking electric dildo devise...cue bass..fade up wah guitar and the three of them start a daisy chain and we have full on action.

device.oops, my imagination got me all flustered

it involves boobs of course..

i feel that i am being stalked trixie. unless you are just (get this, its a good one) TRYING TO GET SOMETHING OF YOUR CHEST!!!!!!!

ba ha, if only you knew..

I have to say that at the time Gomez was a huge highlight for me...... not the in our gun tour bu the machismo tour.... f**k Gomez are great :)

Umm.. TOOL, but I haven't seen that many live bands. They were very awesome though.

Ozzy Osbourn and Judas Preist They kicked ars live!!!

*takes a look through old threads and decides to post in one* :D

i thought i just had to add even though no one will read this.

best band i've seen live. Rammstein hands down. they just kick arse full stop. :)

bdo or powerstation gig?

BDO. i'm only 17 (15 at the time) and it was an r18 gig as far as i remember.
