    The best live show you've ever seen

    What's the best live show you've ever seen? I know some of you are like a billion years old, so hopefully some good stuff!

    This thread has dangerous, carnival-tent potential.

    I use to like watching gladiator fights on my lunch break. That was pretty cool.

    Could never pick just one I've been to so many shows and worked so many shows, but the first that comes to mind is Col. Claypool's Fearless Flying Frog Brigade at tiny Club West in Eureka, CA in 2000 or 2001. The 2nd set was Pink Floyd's Animals in it's entirety.

    Actually, I was going to say Pink Floyd's Animals also. I saw in at the Big A and it was a great show.

    This explains why this thread never showed up in the Music forum and I had to repost it!

    I'll say...that one Teixeira thread.

    Thumbs up

    Live show is a pretty broad category, e.g. when I was in Bangkok I saw a fantastick Tai boxing match, repleat with music, dance, and lots of blood. Also in Bangkok, Pet Pong to those who know, interesting stuff involving ping pong balls, cigarettes, and beer bottles. But as I am a theatre person, I would have to say the best was Bergman's Hamlet at BAM, followed closely by Peter Brook's Mahabharata, Serban's Cherry Orchard, Kantor's Dead Class, Maggie Smith's As You Like It, and Ian Mcclelland's Acting Shakespeare. But I must add Phillip Petite's street show. And Mississippi John Hurt in concert, along with the Gospel at Collonus must also be mentioned.

    Back in the 80s I saw two orchestra's combine into one massive orchestra to play Rimsky-korsakov's "Capriccio Espanol." There were so many musicians that they spilled out into the theater, literally surrounding the audience with sound.
