For sheer fantasy value, if I could somehow zip back in time and watch Talking Heads' Stop Making Sense set live, I would die happy.
One of the great albums of our times.

"Love so many, really eclectic tastes in music..
Maybe the Who or Eric Clapton from the older stuff, or the Artic Monkeys for a bit more modern."
artic monkeys are good actually! The strypes a young Irish band are good worth a look |

But then, there was the time we patiently waited for Bob Dylan to do his magic and this terrible, warbling of new songs we didn't know came out of the speakers. Not impressed.
Then Tony Bennett came on after and wiped the floor with him.
Who knew?

"Chemical Brothers do a mean live set
You and me need to have a 'gig-off' "
I have seen a lot of world-class acts over the years at G'bury.
* Al Green
* James Brown
* Dolly Parton
There's a lot to choose from... |

I couldn't pick just one. I was lucky enough to see David Bowie, and that fella had presence. The Eurythmics were just about the most polished act I've seen and Annie Lennox and George Micheal tied for the hands down most incredible voices.
All that said.... The Prodigy are just awesomeness refined live!  |

Faithless do a rocking live set - sadly it's always exactly the same. Elbow are good crowd pleasers.
James Blunt? Hang your head in shame.
PSB are excellent live. |

Oh ferrrrrrrrrk this is so hard to answer for me!
I think I would have to say Nine Inch Nails over all.....
But I also adore Metallica, old Crue, Sepultura, old Slayer, Pantera, Whitesnake, Type O Negative, Fear Factory around the Demanufacture era and AC/DC were amazing live.....
Although my fave ever song is Otis Redding - Dock of the bay!
Although this is WELL worth a listen:
