So which have you seen that are worth mention, or favorites I suppose?
Okay and mine are:

Solo, I'm going to say Donovan, Cotati cabert.

Multi show line up, Dead kennedys,Butthole Surffers, Vetical Urge and ummm, others, what a show ..........

The Reverend Horton Heat has the greatest live show ever. Mates of State are a very close 2nd. Besides that, some other great shows i've seen are:
The Decemberists
Andrew Bird
Jenny Lewis & The Watson Twins
Ralph Stanley
Death Cab For Cutie
Ben Gibbard & David Bazaan
They are all worth seeing...if you can
I saw Ani Difranco a few years ago at a festival. Other than that, I haven't seen a concert in years. These days, I spend the money that I used to spend on concerts on plays (any Avenue Q, Wicked or Drowsy Chaperone fans in here?). I never liked concert crowds, and I've found that with the theater crowd, I'm a lot less likely to have to witness spontaneous eruptions of violence and/or vomit.
The best concert I ever saw was the Rolling Stones in 1981 at the Pontiac Silverdome. I was very close to the stage (I could have spit in Ron Wood's eye) and since I'm so much taller than most people I had a perfectly unobstructed view of the stage.
FYI: (@ this Stones concert...)
Iggy Pop was booed off the stage (LOL, this is his hometown)
Santana was excellent
Mick Jagger kicked a little white (American) football right over my head.
i`ve seen some legends but that`s because im old he he ....... david bowie :sound and vision tour 1990 he is my god.
black sabbath when i was young and ozzy when he was still crazy insane
Queen, Oasis, Love, Metallica, Opeth, Iron Maiden, Black Label Society, OZZY, System of a down, Slayer, Audioslave, Radiohead, KoRn, Yngwie Malmsteen, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, Stereophonics, U2, Journey, Whitesnake, Def Leppard. (Loads more so il add them as they come to me)
I just passed on Beck the other day playing at the Orpheum Theater right next door to me and know I'll live regret it for all eternity....
I love Avril Lavigne. My most favorite song by her is The Best Damn Thing.
