I've been to many concerts, and most of them were amazing, especially the big festivals (Except maybe for Taste of Chaos a while back, The Used and Killswitch Engage were pretty much the height of the show, and I'm not really into either of them)
That being said:
The Mars Volta/At the Drive-In have such an amazing energy through their entire show. Their ability to improvise makes it so worth seeing live. Seen them a couple times and I'm going again in a couple weeks (win).
I saw Iron Maiden early this summer... they were ****ing awesome, I can now die a happy man.
A New Found glory is great live, also a great energy, plus I <3 that band enough that I've endured The Early November and Fall Out Boy more than once to see them. (ok... maybe I like FOB a little)
*keeps digging though old ticket stubs*
Holy yes. Almost everyone at Rock the Bells '07 in NYC. Rage Against the Machine, The Roots, Cage, Talib Kweli, Mos Def, Cypress Hill, Immortal Technique, and Jedi Mind Tricks... all in the same spot. I was basically in heaven.
I went to another fest with State Radio, The Wailers, Jurassic 5, Dropkick Murphys and 311. Everyone came out ready to put on an amazing show and they did.
I saw Say Anything once, they exceeded my expectations for what I heard about their live shows for sure. According to the vocalist, it was because Boston had such energy in the crowd, go us.
Gwar, 'nuff said.
Lastly, I went to go see Boys Night Out one time (well, twice, once in a small venue and once at Warped Tour, but I didn't enjoy one act at Warped Tour... I just got real muddy) anyways, BNO was awesome, probably the one I will remember best, as I was the least impaired going in.
