            So many that my answer is just listing most of the concerts I can remember going to

            The Midnight
            Roosevelt
            Tycho
            DJ Shadow
            deadmau5
            Perturbator
            Rush (RIP Neil)
            Celldweller
            The Crystal Method
            Psychostick
            Above & Beyond
            Kodo (Japanese taiko drummers)
            Lateralis (chiptune musician and indie game dev)

            If I had to pick the three most memorable, it'd be Kodo, DJ Shadow, and The Midnight

              Oh, I've had great ones too - these were mostly for my stepson.

                I will forever kick myself for not trying to see them in Tacoma in (i think) 2023. One of the greatest bands of all time, and pure fucking magic on psychedelics

                  +1 for The Midnight. About halfway through the show all but one person went backstage. For about 20 minutes this guy had the most killer synth solo. I was mind blown how well they incorporated the synth into a live concert.

                    I'll bet they are great live. I actually have only heard one song of theirs, which I found by accident years ago when trying to find something else. Everlasting Light, played live.
                    One of very few songs that completely makes it obvious how much mp3 compression sucks, and even if you download the FLAC (sadly not high res) you can still hear everything wrong with your speakers and if you listen to it on good headphones then you can hear the deficiencies of the mic they used to record it.

                    Truly a huge amount of audio information in that track. I love it!

                      Dada Life. Wouldn’t call them a band just a DJ pair. Only one of them played, but the show he put on was incredible. He had all of the things to keep your hands on the air. He was throwing out beach balls, big blowup bananas (which I managed to keep one and he signed it after the show), big balloons and had a big flag that he had the crowd hold up over their heads, he also handed out pillows for a pillow fight we did.

                        Hell yeah!

                        I remember the audience just absolutely losing it the first time the sax came out, and also every time after that. Such an excellent band, and I was so thrilled to see how much they blew up

                          Not a band, but Patti Smith, with Philip Glass.

                                I saw that live. I remember thinking "man that was a good show they should be wrapping up soon" but it was like halfway through. They played a 3 hour set. Insane.

                                    Buddy Guy. the concert was pretty posh (think bankers in suits), with everyone having arranged seating, audience sitting still and quiet like at a classical music concert.

                                    he was like 'fuck this, this isn't a proper concert, my guitar is wireless, let's stand up, go to the entry hall and jam'. so he's just standing in the middle of the crowd and going nuts, at like 83 years of age. That was amazing.

                                      Dj shadow vs cut chemist at the Hollywood bowl. It was experimental but quite the experience

                                        In the vein of the second one, I saw George with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra at the Opera House, performing with Jon Lord a symphony that wrote. Fucking incredible.
