I'd be here all day listing them. I spent my teens doing nothing else.
Best bands I've seen live would be The Libertines & Oasis probably. Saw Oasis in Manchester and no one does a stadium quite like them, it was amazing. The Libs, I've seen all over and have never been disappointed. The performances were usually chaotic, sometimes all over the place and out of tune, but for some reason that just made it better. It's weird, but even when the Libs played badly, they were immense

I reckon Ben will probably be the one that goes to more than anyone else on here. He's at uni, so it comes with the territory. I don't have as much time these days

I went to see the The Sugarbabes live at Cambridge Corn Exchange last Tuesday. They were absolutely fabulous!!! I've seen them on tv live shows and they sound a bit flat at times, but in the flesh they were brilliant, not a bum note heard all night! The atmosphere was great, everyone was singing and dnacing along to them. The costumes were eyecatching and the dancers and band were superb! I thoroughly recommend you go see them if they are playing close to you

I think I was about 13 ish when he sang that, I remember his first hit, with Tubeway Army -Are Friends Electric, it was so far out when it was released, there was nothing else like it about at that time. Fab stuff!
