Bit of a mixed bag but:

Prince - Glasgow Celtic Park, 1992

James - Manchester (Final Tour), Dec 2001 (I think)

Pixies - Brixton Academy, June 2004 (a dream come true!)

I also have very fond memories of seeing Radiohead at Cambridge Junction in 1992/3, just after Pablo Honey was released. Bizarrely, they were the support band that night for a band called The Frank And Walters!

Fugazi 10th Anniversary Show, Latin American Cultural Center, Washington DC, Summer 1997. Same day, same venue as their first show, 10 years later.

Other mentionables:

Rev Horton Heat, Off Ramp in Seattle, 1992.

Early Built to Spill shows in Seattle, right after they formed.

Dirty Three at Moe's in Seattle. 1999, I think. Only band I ever saw twice in one day. Absolutely amazing live act.

Garageshock, 3B Tavern, Bellingham, WA, 1997: Galaxy Trio, Man or Astroman? The Monomen, Southern Culture on the Skids, Dead Moon, 5,6,7,8s, The Drags, and about 10 other bands over 3 days. Too bad this event got too big for it's own good. It was a yearly highlight while it lasted.

Modest Mouse at my friend Jordan's birthday party, basement of a house in Bellingham, WA, 1996.

Jucifer and High on Fire, Cleveland, OH, 2004.

Best big show: Endfest 1992: Beasties, Helmet, Mudhoney, L7, The Posies, Charlatans UK, Sonic Youth.

Rufio/Brand New/Taking Back Sunday - Late 2002 (The Revolution)
No one knew who they were, and they played to a crowd of about 300 people crammed into a trailer-sized room. It was awesome.

Yeah I wanted to see a Rufio concert in San Diego at a place about as small/crappy as that right before they blew up, but it was sold out.

My favorite concert live: Journey, last summer at the San Diego County Fair.
