Best live British band you have seen

Pretty self explanatory really...I think mine is probably Biffy Clyro. I would say Prodigy but I'm sure a lot of it is pre-recorded so 'mon the Biff!

I shall be seeing Muse later this year and with much positive feedback, I am expecting to be blown away by their live show.

So who's yours?

I really enjoyed The Kooks well it was straight after seeing Paolo Nutini who was absoloutley crap...i love his music but i don't think he was very good live, so the Kooks was an upgrade :smile: Florence + the machine was good too, amazing vocals...

Saw The Kooks a few years back in Newquay, they were amazing! and I saw Muse in Lancashire last year...very impressed!

Not really a band, but I saw Sugababes live once....I was shocked at how good they were! I would have never thought a group like that could actually sing live.

So far I would have to say Muse. If you thought their albums are good, wait until you see them live!

Though if I'm being honest, I wish I was born earlier so I could have seen Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd...
Bellowhead.

Folk music at it's absolute best.

Feeder, without a doubt. Amazing live band.
Kasabian.

Radiohead is one that I want to see as well.

Speaking as someone who works in the entertainment industry I've had the pleasure of seeing or working almost every gig mentioned above (but not Maiden or Muse... Yet). And they are all really good! I think my favourite would have to be either Basement Jaxx or Groove Armada.

While not technically Pink Floyd, Roger Waters is doing an arena tour with The Wall atm, I saw it last night and it really is amazing... As a production and a concept I would strongly recommend it to anyone with the slightest interest in Floyd

I couldn't manage to get tickets to the shows at the O2...:frown:
MUSE.
I was soooo close to touching Matt Bellamy... if it wasn't for the giant sweating guy in front of me.

Muse

Although Biffy were supporting them and they were damn good also ^^
Iron Maiden, without a doubt. Phenomenal.
The Fratellis in Glasgow. The place was absolutely jumping!
