In terms of the best bands I've seen live, they would be (in no particular order): The Flaming Lips, The Hives, Beck, Muse and Bjork. Although M.I.A. and The White Stripes were pretty damn amazing too.
There was a live concert of The Hives on one of the MTV (UK) channels last night -
I see what you mean about it being sweaty, down and dirty.
They remind me of early Jam.
Where and when did you see MUSE.
I've also seen them twice:
- at the Manchester M.E.N. on 11th November 2006, and
- at the new Wembley stadium on 17th June 2007.
Actually, both times I saw Muse they were playing festivals that I was going to regardless, and the first time I saw them I didn't know who they were... and because I'm Canadian and they're not as popular here, both times it was actually a pretty small venue and crowd. The first time was the Curiosa festival a few years ago where they played the second stage (that's the touring festival curated by the Cure), and the second time was at the Toronto Virgin Festival last year. Both times they played just as the sun was setting, and both times they blew my mind.
