U2 @ Wembley Stadium - 12th June (my birthday) 1987 on The Joshua Tree Tour.

I still get tingles in my spine when I think about the opening song...Where the streets have no name! Classic:-)

Many, all for different reasons:

Air - Casino de Paris 2009. A home gig for them in the place where Piaf had a residency, so much atmosphere.
Roger Waters - O2 2011. The one where Gilmour and Mason joined in.
Half Man Half Biscuit - Leicester Uni 1986. Fred Titmus!
The Pogues - Leicester Poly 1985. Mayhem.

im a little tea pot
rammstein where good for showmanship (and shear mentality)
Trivium where also good for the show and the music

the best all in (venue, band, participation) was watching sanctity at cardiff barfly! a venue about 10 ft by 20 foot and the stage was 1 foot above floor level! we also got tol to invade the stage by the band!!!
