For me it was Wolfmother at a major German festival. I didn’t really know them before and did not expect too much, but was totally blown away by their performance.

    I’ve seen Dave Matthews Band, Gin Blossoms, Daft Punk and gone to Pink Floyd laser shows (Pink Floyd wasn’t there themselves tho) and more, but not one of the massive artists I’ve seen compared to the final show by a band some of my friends in high school had made (and I can’t even remember the name they went by at the time; I only remember the original name of Kill the Messenger). They did it outside another friend’s barn that had been converted into a skatepark and they wanted the crowd to just get all up in their shit as they played. Like, I was basically hugging the lead singer while they performed and they fucking ruled! They sounded like the Mars Volta which was still pretty new at the time and I really think that had they not all split up across the country to go to various colleges, they could have actually made something of a musical career.
