Glad to see The cure get a mention.

I love The Cure in Orange. I have the live DVD but I had to get it sent from Australia.

Pink Floyd Live at Pompeii is pretty special too.

Also Bowie's Ziggy Stardust concert film - the famous one.

Would have to be the Last Waltz for me. Scorsese. Every performer on stage with The Band. Hilight: Clapton losing his guitar strap and Robbie taking advantage of the solo!

The Cure - Trilogy. Just brings back memories of when I had seen them at their best (3 times) in the nineties.

Queen-live at wembley stadium 1986
there are many queen concerts, but this is the one that beats them all.
queen just finished touring for a year and a half. they were at the top of their game. they were the hottest ticket; selling out all over the world.
they came to london and played 2 sold out shows at the original wembley stadium.
no one had ever sold out wembley 2 nights in a row.
if you like queen, you will love this concert.
Freddie goes all out and shows the world why he was the best frontman ever.
a must watch!!!

Iron Maiden flight 666
Iron Maiden's world tour takes them around the globe in their own specially appointed airplane, piloted by lead singer Bruce Dickinson. He is a captain and flies for british airways.
Through India, Australia, Japan, USA, Canada, Mexico and South America. Features interviews with the musicians, their road crew and fans.
This video is unbelieveable. these guys sell out stadiums with 200,000 people like it was nothing.
Everyone around the world knows the music so well that the crowds sing through the whole concert.
If your not an iron maiden fan, you will be after you watch this video.
This is a must watch. YOU WILL NOT BELIEVE WHAT YOU SEE. EVERYONE AROUND THE WORLD IS A DISCIPLE OF IRON MAIDEN.
You will want a pair of ear plugs next to you, because the volume is going way up on this video. The sound is really good.

Without any doubt Stop Making Sense: I think I've seen it three times and it was the only three times I saw people getting up and dancing in front of the movie screen.

Well with all the U2 talk lately, I have to say that I really liked Rattle & Hum. (The movie.)

I was going to say every tour U2 has released a live concert film, and I was entertained by all of them (last one I saw was the 360 one).

Let It Be was interesting. The Beatles best of release with all their music videos. Yellow Submarine was just terrible. The Ed Sullivan Show is fun.

R.E.M. has a couple interesting ones.

The Doors live at hollywood bowl.

Nirvana Reading and Paramount films (I dislike their live albums, but watching it was a totally different thing).

I second Gimme Shelter. My dad was at that concert.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE SOUL TRAIN

So, in 1970, a bunch of great acts were booked to take a train across Canada and play a series of live shows. These acts included Grateful Dead, The Band, Janis Joplin, The Flying Burrito Brothers, Buddy Guy, Delaney & Bonnie, and others. The tour was a disaster, and the train ride was a drug and alcohol orgy. The film, which disappeared and was forgotten for years, turned up in 1999 and was finally released in 2003.

It's a complete mess...and it's absolutely awesome.

Live songs are shown at the stops in Toronto, Winnipeg and Calgary, as well as drunken jams on the train (Janis, Rick Danko and Jerry Garcia doing "Ain't No More Cain" on the train is perfectly classic). Some bands (Traffic, Ten Years After) never gave permission to be shown in the film...they are not seen at all, although performances were filmed. The footage of the musicians unsupervised on the train partying their asses off and having the time of their lives is simply great stuff.

My all time favorite.

I GOTTA see that. The songs from the train stops in Toronto and Winnipeg made it onto Janis Joplin's album Joplin in concert. And part of her stage patter between songs is talking about the train ride

I'm sure this has been done before, but I just watched a real interesting one I thought I would share.

It's really good if you have never seen it, and are a fan of any of these artists.
