Best live performance I've ever seen:
(Not the actual live video, since I couldn't find one with audio quality even approaching listenable)
Most fun:
Luckily I haven't had the misfortune of seeing any particularly bad live performances.

Gee, there have been so many bad ones, I only remember the best:
Three have stayed in my mind for 40 years.
Roy Orbison, circa 1964. Boring as dog shit to watch, but that VOICE!
I saw "The Seekers" at a free live concert at the Myer music bowl in Melbourne in 1966. Knocked my socks off.
Saw "The Shadows" live at posh local hotel,as the floor show,in1967. They wore trendy tailored dinner suits, and were fantastic!

Best ever concert I saw was Jethro Tull in the '90s . Amazing!
Worst concert ever that I went to was The Beach Boys about 1970. Absolutely woeful! Almost asked for my money back!
There are many intelligent Christians, no doubt, but an "intellectual Christian", is surely an oxymoron.

Worst: Die Anarchistische Abendunterhaltung, opening for U2 in Rotterdam. They were eventually evacuated off the stage after an angry mob started gathering in front of the stage.
Best: Nine inch Nails in the 013 venue in Tilburg.
