the most famous bands ive seen are

r.e.m.
coldplay
kanye west
and i'll throw modest mouse in the mix, since they had a #1 album last year, and have two platinum albums, even though they're rarely to never played on the radio.
(and in august, radiohead)

secondary-famous bands would be

band of horses
love as laughter
rihanna
lupe fiasco
n.e.r.d.
richard ashcroft (of the verve)
blue man group
reel big fish
streetlight manifesto
mxpx

[RedStratocas]

what were coldplay like live? i'd LOVE to see them.

chris martin's voice is flawless, and he's hyper as hell, he's always running around and stuff, haha. it was pretty good, but nothing truly memorable, every song was exactly how it sounded on the album. i like when bands kinda change stuff around live, but whatever, it was cool.

[Krypsis]

Where did you see Paramore?
