Top Live Performances


Sapper

Recommended Posts

Sorry if this recreating an old post (I am sure it is - I remember a post about best live set ever, and my input was Nirvana unplugged in NYC), but I am a sucker for live songs just as much as sets. It is one thing to get into the studio, sit down and sing while letting the equipment do all the immortalizing. However, if you can pull off an outstanding performance without editing, you truly are a musician.

From experience, Tom Petty puts on the best live concert for me. I have seen him many times over at Verizon and have never been disappointed. However, I took no video and can only make subjective claims to the point. However, Youtube has some gems of great songs that were caught live. Don't get me wrong, these were probably still partially edited. But here are my top live song performances that completely trump the studio version:

Tool is straight up awesome live, seen them 6 times....

Clutch is consistently the best $20 I spend year after year, seen them at least 20 times...

311 is usually solid, but Ive been to a bad show of theirs, seen them 14 times...

Pink Floyd did an amazing show back in 1994, the only time I saw them...

The Who in Madison Square Garden in 2002 was amazing. And they did the show just a couple weeks after John Entwhistle had passed away.

Aerosmith 1975,

Eagles 1973, 1996, 1999... etc.

Kiss 1975- we laugh now, but back then it was pretty special

Springsteen- so many times it's almost meh

Deep Purple- 1974

Emerson, Lake & Palmer- 1974

okay... this whole show April 1974... all for $10.00

    • i think i go in the opposite direction of most. my ideal retirement is living in some old downtown area in a flat above some shop or something.  life out in the country was just something i got real tired of. My kids actually miss some of living out there, which i understand. that was where they grew up for the most part. 40 acres with a 2.5 acre pond. it was beautiful, but also way too much (and too expensive) for me to keep up with. 
    • FLASHBACK: I remember back when ESPN was just starting--he was their anchor.  They used to show stuff like Rodeo and field hockey--I remember laughing when he went to a commercial mocking a cycling competition in Utah (or something similar--I made that up) and I laughed.  I told my dad, "We may have us a new anchor when we get back from commercial."  When they came back from commercial, Berman was looking very serious and he said, "Any comments by me do not reflect the views of ESPN....The men and women who cycle are dedicated athletes and we are honored to shine light on their sport." (Paraphrasing).  Dad laughed hysterically. My first memory of him--and that was like 1980.
    • Might not have a team without them. Although that probably applies to the Panthers, too.
