Incantation
Reality Check
Big Tent Revival
PID
Flotsam & Jetsam

I don't want to start a brawl or anything, but are rap concerts actually good? All the ones I've seen have been terrible, but then again I don't enjoy rap that much in the first place. It just seems like a lot of album stuff would be harder to replicate well in a live setting (and this is the case in my personal experience).

Though, Outkast was good live, but its Outkast, I tend to think they probably out-artist the majority of rappers.

Well, I got to see Run-DMC, and for free no less. I loved it, but then most of the songs I knew by heart anyway. Run-DMC pretty much just had rythym tracks for their songs, and Jay would scratch and stuff.
