I pretty much only go to shows by acts that i know will put on a good show. none the less, here are my top three performances. all three will not dissapoint live.
1. richard thompson; always plays relatively small venues, great live presence, good entertainer, never a sloppy musician.
2. Belle and sebastian; not too pretencious, but engaging and fast moving. good setlists also.
3. David Bromberg; always a fabulous band, always plays great venues, extraordinary musicians plain and simple.
