what are some of your favorite live bands?

Fine, Ill answer this thread. I love seeing Opeth live. They tend to play the same songs or most of them every time I see them, but I dont care. They are just very good shows every time. Children of Bodom is always an awesome show, and Ive only seen Vehemence once, but they were fucking sick. Tool is always an interesting show as well.

Jeff Gruslin era Vital Remains
Morbid Angel
Immortal
Angel Corpse
Emperor

Immortal, Magnetic Fields, all else failed...

Cryptopsy
Marduk
Krisiun

out of the bands ive seen which isnt probably near as many as you guys have seen. i just got a reliable vehicle about a year and a half ago to drive to houston...fucking 1hr and a half to get there for every show but well worth it. well i take that back we got murderfest down here and that shit was fucking horribly promoted but still fun.
All Shall Perish
Cephalic Carnage
Vehemence
The Red Chord
The Black Dahlia Murder
