    no one has even come close to rammstein live
    I paid 120 quid out of my student overdraft for a second-hand ticket to finally see them at the o2 in February. I don't regret it one bit, they were face-meltingly good (literally during some songs).

    I enjoyed Rammstein at Sonisphere but they didn't blow me away, maybe because I'm not a massive fan.

    Definitely The Killers, they had so much energy and the atmosphere was amazing =) The second best would probably be Two Door Cinema club at Tennants Vital, it was a bit of a home coming performance for them so that was fun. ^^

    Guns N' Roses (Use Your Illusion Tour) - though I still loved them when I last saw them in Manchester, I really loved their energy back then, plus I am glad to have seen them when Slash, Duff and Izzy were still part of the band.

    Faith No More - mental!

    Michael Jackson - very glad I got to see him live. Great performer.

    Oddly enough - Meatloaf. That was back in the early 90s. I wasn't a fan, got dragged there by a friend, and didn't know what to expect. What we got was like a theatre show. Very different than any other gig I have been to!

    Duran Duran - because that was my very first concert and got me hooked on live performances .

    The only concert I've seen (due to literally living on a rock!) was Roger Waters performing the album 'The Wall' in Manchester last year. It was amazing, not just for the music (my fave album!) but the show was just spectacular - I'm seeing Muse in November, it has a lot to live up to!
