you are obviously much younger than me and apparently have better taste??
i've never seen pearl jam, otherwise i'm sure they would be listed
no offense, I just saw Frampton, Urban and FOGELBURG and thought you were surely being funny. I guess they could be great shows. Now very intense, but thats not all that goes into a great show, right?
Pearl Jam, yes, if you ever get a chance..... well they certainly deserve their reputation.
STP 97 - That show was my "senior gift" from my mom. It was a couple days before graduation and I went with my girlfriend, best friend and MOM. We had such a blast. All that aside, they were my fav band at the time and they totally fucking rocked. Still the loudest show I've ever been to. And Wieland was the best, craziest front man I've witnessed.
Marshal Tucker Band - saw them once. Fall 00, in Ruidoso NM. Very nice show. I like some of their songs.
its hard not to list this years Cornell performance as no 1. His spot on performance of many of my favorite songs plus seeing the show from so close - I'm still reeling in this show back in April. Its at least equal to the last time I saw PJ and Page/Plant.
I looked at Yellowbird's list and really didn't think he'd be serious.
Still reeling from April?? Wow!
I wasn't really all that moved by his performance. It was good, and I certainly enjoyed hearing some Soundgarden songs because I never got the chance to see them live...but it wasn't very memorable for me overall. Actually, what was memorable for me was all of the old people that were dressed way too young around me getting really drunk and dancing in a hilarious fashion.

I met a lot of cool people at the show. age range was pretty wide. I really like that the crowd just stood there and watched the show and didn't mosh. Some bitched about it, but I'm glad I actually got to fully enjoy the show. Best part of the crowd was that I was on the second row and this short, hot-ass, mexican girl was right in front of me. She bumped and grinded me through the whole show and leaned against my chest. She was really cute and my friend laughed about it for a while afterwards, cause we got sorta intense several times. The really sad part was her date was right beside her. Felt bad about that, but it was mostly her and we were crammed in so close,,,,
Anyway, it was one of the best shows I've been lucky enough to catch and getting my dick rubbed throughout was an interesting side note.

1. Pearl Jam LA Forum 1- I read some haters on this show because of the similarities to the SD show, but being there you could tell from the effort Eddie and boys put out they viewed it as a big show. I think it was the speed the show sold out in a big market like LA had the boys pumped.

Saw SOME decent shows in the 80s and 90s but none I'd put in my top 5!!!!!
The Frames
(...)
People always say The Frames are a boring band but that gig was electric.
I've loved all of their gigs I've seen so far, hence:
The Frames - 2006/2007, everytime I've seen them they were utterly brilliant. Best gig of those probably being the one in Vienna, March 2007. I decided not to see a loved band to see them, they played Perfect Opening Line for me, more or less.
The Cooper Temple Clause - 2006/2007
First time seeing them 3 days before Christmas in 2006 was very lovely, the excitement about something new. Aftershow-''party'' in the famous Atomic Café, with lots of giggling and fangirling. Second time (after not seeing them in Vienna because of see above) in a small club in Milan, sound being fucked up and the band trying everything to make that up. Aftershow DJ-ing in another club, not many people, flashiest flashlight I've ever seen. Drink for 9€ - we knew we were in Italy, then. Third time in London, amazing setlist, amazing audience around me, amazing Team Cooper.
I Am X - 2006/2007
Just... getting lost in the music. Not caring or knowing anything about the world around me. Touching CC's boots
Nine Inch Nails - Bratislava, 2007
First time NIN, brilliant setlist, amazing crowd, lovely city.

Obviously.
I'm just gonna mention some I loved but who weren't as outstanding as the above mentioned: Portugal The Man, Björk, Mother Tongue, Kaizers Orchestra, Placebo
