I've recently been to a couple of phenomenal shows and thought I'd share the artists with you. Check out KennyHoopla and Genesis Owusu. If either of
them are coming to a town near you, I'd suggest you go!!
Do you have any suggestions to add to this thread? What do you think of these two?
I guess I'm old school, but this is what I consider a phenomenal show. Just raw talent. No need for lights or loud amps or jumping
around on the state. A man, his guitar and just pure, raw, unbridled artistry.

Back in the before time, I really enjoyed Alice Cooper shows. He put a lot into his theatrics, and you could tell be enjoyed that part of it, which
translated into a great show.
The most memorable show I ever attended was the Flaming Lips back in the early '00s when they were touring for Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots. Great
tunes and stage antics for days.
I also thoroughly enjoyed Modest Mouse in the same era, around the time of The Moon and Antarctica.
In the bluegrass sphere, The Punch Brothers completely blow my mind with what they can achieve with acoustic instruments.
Nightwish was transcendental. (As was their opener Kamelot)
And my personal favorite.
I've never seen Arch Enemy with Alissa, even though she's currently my favorite singer. Saw them with Angela at Ozzfest 2005 and it made me a forever
fan. They tour Europe and Japan most. Hard to catch them in The US.
Their new singer is awesome and has amazing stage outfits.
If I have one complaint. She doesn't get to sing enough with Arch Enemy. I swear they are afraid to let her.
