      I like this video of The Boss playing along side a street musician in Copenhagen.

      I'm totally addicted to Bruce Springsteen and his live videos. He's immense.

      I can't wait to watch him.

      Doesn't come across that well on YouTube but that's kind of the point of the OP I suppose.

      I saw Faith No More at that venue, in that year so I'm assuming this was recorded that night. One of my first "proper" gigs and still one of the greatest I've been to.
      For those that know their music, just picture us stood there in the dark as a dim, red light on the stage gets steadily brighter, revealing Mike Patton stood there in his formal suit, holding a weird little keyboard with a pipe into his mouth. As the cheers died down, he played Midnight Cowboy and just as it ended and faded out, the rest of the lights came on and they blasted into Collision! Absolutely epic (no pun intended).

      Anyway, I think this was about the third song in:

      Faith No More - Midlife Crisis [Live 1997]


      Saw Deftones around the same time, possibly early the following year (98) when they weren't exactly a big name over here. Again, I was blown away and this song in particular stayed in my head for a long time:

      Deftones - Be quiet and drive (far away) (Live @ Recovery TV 1998)

      I suppose that's the point really.
      It doesn't matter how good recordings become,
      sometimes you just had to be there.

      When you see the videos played back it doesn't give
      any indication of the atmosphere or interaction between
      the band and the crowd.

      Again, Bruce. The boss. This one is from his last album, cracking song. Tom Morello is in the video too.

      Exactly. I have very few live recordings because, although they are a nice way of preserving memories, the atmosphere never fully comes across. Pearl Jam, for example, they have some of the best live recordings out due to their high technical ability on stage but what rarely comes across is the way almost every person in the crowd is completely lost in the music and singing along or at least mouthing the words.
      My kids like a lot of sh*t music at the minute but I'm going to do my best to encourage them to go to gigs as they get older and build memories, just as I have.

      Love the thread Si.

      My first choice has already been mentioned but this is the live version that made me fall in love with the song. Perfect performance.

      U2 All I Want is YOU LIVE Milan

      This one isn't even one of my favorite songs by the Killers but it was one great live act.

      The Killers - Human (live) [HQ]

      Amazing energy by Snow Patrol and the crowd here, I can't stop listening to it lately.

      Snow Patrol - Run 720p (Live @ Oxegen 2009)

      I've never been his biggest fan, but I was really impressed the night he performed this one for the first time at the MTV VMA's, too bad I can't find a better video.

      God Put A Smile Upon Your Face - Coldplay - Live T in the Park - BBCHD



      Two bands I've had the pleasure (and honour!) of seeing. Saw them on their tours supporting two of probably my most favourite albums of the last 5 years (The Suburbs and Viva La Vida or Death And All His Friends) Two of the very best live acts I think.

      I'm sure there will be a few on here who will love this. What a performance by Liam. Along with One by U2 this song is the best song of the 90s for me. A refreshing burst of optimism and hope.

      I'v seen loads live and Tom Chaplin is the best live singer i've ever witnessed, sounds better live than he does on cd.

      Keane - Everybody's Changing LIVE! DVD

      Special Mention to Noel Gallagher too as why they never released this an side with him singing, I'll never know.

      Oasis - The Masterplan_Unplugged

      Last but not least one of my other favourites, the phonics.

      Stereophonics Hurry Up And Wait (Live)

      Agree about Tom Chaplin. Immense singer. Like other bands of their calibre they get criticised often for the music they produce which is quite sad because his voice is stunning which goes really well with some brilliant pop tunes. Makes you realise how little singing talent there is in music today.

      The Beastie Boys came across like a US version of the Sex Pistols, as the proposition implies however they did lack the spontaneity and venom of the Pistols.

      I just like the ay the crowd are going off and the light pulses punctuating everthing. I always think the Beastie Boys are taking the piss but not parody more ..satire
