    Rage Against the Machine Download 2010 didn't think I'd ever feel a buzz like that again in my life.
    Then I saw Black Sabbaths first show together again at the 02 Birmingham 2012. Only 2-3000 people there. Dropped a pill and by the time they plated Dirty Women I was pretty much in tears. Seen them another 3 times since and they are brilliant every time.
    Meshuggah at Brixton last year was probably the single most heaviest thing i'll ever hear.
    Gojira at koko 2012 was immense too.
    AC/DC at hampden 2009.
    Rammestein 2001 when I was 12 was an experience!
    The first time I saw Modeselektor was unreal too.
    Basically impossible to choose one show as i've been to loads!

    Not been to many i havent enjoyed to be honest, even those im wasnt particularly into were quite good live.

    A few highlights were Paul McCartney 1990 in the SEC, the first tour he played all his Beatles songs.Also, when He played Mull of Kintyre, a full pipe band walked on the stage.......nearly greetin' so i was.( im sure some * will dig me up on that in the indy thread:icon_mrgreen:)

    Fleetwood Mac a couple of years ago was superb

    Manics in Cardiff.

    Alice Cooper is fantastic live.

    Seen loads of good gigs, but the foo fighters in 99/2000 at the barrowlands was a highlight, drum off between dave and taylor, set list was amazing and the crowd was brilliant.

    Went to see Bruce Springsteen in London in 2012. my * that man can put on a show plus singing with John Fogerty and Paul McCartney just made it even better.

    went to see him last year in Hampden but it wasn't the same :54:

    I think any gig is improved if it's in the barras I'd say it's probably the best venue in Glasgow seen Miles Kane The Fratellis and the libertines in it and they were all amazing gigs. The best of probably been to way the Roses at Glasgow Green in 2013

    I was at that, it was amazing. Wasn't even a big foos fan.

    I'd have to go between Rage Against The Machine at T In The Park, Arcade Fire at Barras, or Sigur Ros at any time on the Takk tour. Bit of a mix there...

    I haven't been at many concerts(not sure why as I love music) and you couldn't pay me to go to a music festival so my choices are pretty limited here.

    The only big band I've seen live are Pulp. I saw them play in the Shetland Islands and they were really good. You'd have thought after playing Glastonbury etc that they might half * their way through such a small gig but they really didn't. Jarvis Cocker put on a real show which I thought was great and very professional of him. He treated the 1,500 folk that were there like they were 15,000 folk. The latter stages of the concert are a bit hazy as drink and women became involved but the parts I remember were great.

    I've seen Dougie McLean, Aly Bain & Phil Cunningham and Andy M. Stewart & Manus Lunny live and they were all brilliant but it's folk music so the atmospheres were pretty sedate and the gigs don't stand out as much in the memory for that reason. So Pulp get my vote.

    Been to lots in my time but the best is anything between Quo, Iron Maiden, Alice in Chains, Aerosmith at SECC, and Nickelback last year at the Hydro. The most famous person I've seen live is Frank Sinatra in '91 at the shitpit. Absolute Legend and what a voice, even though he was in his 80's at the time.

    Wasn't really a big fan ,but went with my Da, who loved him. I was speechless when he came on to the red ash around the pitch, and stood directly infront of my Da and me. I was literally 4feet away from one of the greatest singers the world has ever seen.
