Anyways, you cannot beat Iron Maiden. The way Bruce Dickinson works the crowd, 'Scream for me *insert location here*', Eddie putting in an appearance, the sheer energy of the band and above all the MUSIC. The icing on the cake is if it takes part at the Hammersmith Odeon, the UK's home of rock & metal (now the Glasgow Apollo is no longer with us).
Yup, Bruce Dickinson is awesome. I got the rock in rio dvd - it makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end. God only knows what it was like to be there (god and the people actualy there)

There are two bands that I am a bit sheepish about not liking.
The Flaming Lips, and Pavement.

I just dont get them.
I like almost all of the music that I should like, and a few extras I throw in for originality. But, I dont know, the Flaming Lips guys voice annoys me. And I completely dont get Pavement.

So it goes.
Cake are not bad. If you like them, you might like Beck. Or they might be giants.
I am a total Belgium Indie rock *****. dEUS, Millionaire, Evil Superstars, Eagles of Death Metal. Very fond of Kings of Convenience. I seem to always fall madly in love with bands where I am a friend of a friend of someone in the band. Zita Swoon are another good one.

Bands that were good live... hmm, Evil Superstars were good. A lot of performers at The Cork Guinness Jazz festival were jaw dropping. Believe it or not, AIR were amazing live, on the Moon Safari tour.
