Best Concert Film


I never seem to tire of Talking Heads great concert film, "Stop Making Sense". Never ceases to get the adrenaline pumping, the foot taping, and a smile from ear-to-ear. I used to have a VHS tape of it long ago.

Any other nominations for "Best Concert Film" of all time? I couldn't find any threads in the archives on the subject.

we have been watching concert's lately from our youth & it's been alot of fun,the other night we watched the black sabbath reunion concert & it was excellent,my wife wasnt old enough to see them but i had seen them twice,once with ozzy & once with ronnie james dio,it brought back alot of memory's for me plus the show was excellent,they broke into the concert a few time's to play partial interview's with band member's but all in all it's a fun concert to watch.

i did find out a interesting fact about sabbath from the dvd,their guitarist tony iomni had his finger's cut off in a sheet metal sheer when he was a kid & he has home made prosthetic finger tip's that he made & use's to play with,i never knew that.

last weekend we watched the ac/dc live at donington concert & that was truly a fantastic show,excellent recording & a 2 hour long show without a single interview,it's been so long since i had seen ac/dc live that i had forgoten just how much energy they put into a show & how much of a showman angus young really is,angus is non stop energy the entire show & keep's the crowd in a absolute frenzy from start to finish,he even does a little strip tease for the crowd.

i know these title's sound cheesy & are a long way away from norah jone's but hey it is the music of many member's youth(including mine)& it has been a lot of fun to just sit back,have a whole bunch of beer's,blast the living shit out of the rig & forget about all the audiophile this & that & just enjoy a fun show.

i used to go see every concert i possibly could when i was a kid & watching these last 2 hard rock concert's made me feel better about this hobby than i have in a long time & it made me remember why i fell in love with music to begin with & it surely wasnt to see just how good i could get my rig to sound.
