The Grateful Dead put on a good live performance.
Buck Eye Lake Ohio was a nice place to see them cause there were no cops there!
Pink Floyd and Roger Waters deserve honorable mentions.

I'm a sound engineer by trade, so this is my forte. Of course musical tastes play a huge part, but professionally speaking, there are two artists that come to mind.
Bruce Springsteen
Prince
Both are absolutely amazing artists and their live shows are events which will change you.
I've been on Fun Lovin' Criminals, The White Stripes, Happy Mondays, !!!(chk,chk,chk) , Sonic Youth, Asian Dub Foundation, The Stooges, the Hold Steady etc. But my no#1 live show was the Pixies
Dave Matthews Band! :)
I really love CKY playing live, they live for their fans and you notice that when you watch them live.
I havn't really seen Red Hot Chili Peppers live with my own eyes, but juding from videos (like Slane Castle) they are maybe even better live then their albums!
Muse
The best concerts I've been to are Wide Spread Panic and Page/Plant (Led Zeppelin) because of the awesome atmosphere, the great sound and the Wide spread Panic bongo drum player, he's fuckin' awesome :D And of course Jimmy Pages excellent guitar skills :D I was a bit dissapointed that Page/Plant didn't play Stairway To Heaven though, but it was still an unforgetable concert :)
Muse or Sigur Ros. Muse is..ridiculous, but take a look at Heima to see why Sigur Ros might be better.
I really liked U2, Pearl Jam and Metallica :01:
I couldn't go to Moby, but my friends said it was awesome (same about Coldplay).
I'd probably say Queen for the performance, Pink Floyd for the show.
Also, The Who, The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, Ramones, Sex Pistols, Guns N' Roses and Aerosmith all deserve honorable mentions.
