Too many great performances to choose from, but always been quite fond of the times when Dr. John came on and Jools played on another piano with him.

I remember the At the Drive In performance now, it was brilliant, as enthusiastic as it was showboatful giving the two fingers to Robbie Williams who played right afterwards wondering if he could get the chair that the singer stood on and made rock n' roll love to (figuratively). Williams bewildered look was brilliant!

I remember Oasis doing a cracking version of Acquiesce a looonnngggg time ago. I remember being excited about a Hives performance before I realised they were crap.
Solomon Burke was immense (in every sense of the word when he played Jools).
There is a very enjoyable 3-disc DVD of the best stuff from the series that's available. And it's well worth it.

Sonic Youth playing Drunken Butterfly was just amazing. it was loud to say the least

Yeah Sonic Youth in the mid 90's playing Sugar Cane was classic, still have it on VHS somewhere.

She did live in Drogheda with her Father around 1979, not sure if he lectured in Trinity though it does ring a bell.
Favourite Jools moment was probably L. Cohen or Portishead, which was mind blowing.

I think she went to Trinity and dropped out, her Dad was a roady for the Gratefull Dead so i cant see him lecturing in Trinity  |

Paranoid Andriod from the same show. They hit the last note, there was a pause for about a second then the audience exploded into raptureous apple sauce. (if we have have a load of Seinfeld references in one thread why not Larry Sanders.)

Jools introduced them as "Arcade Power", Power Out wasn't that great that night but when they played Rebellion later on in the show that was a real "Holy s**t" moment for me. |

The one performance that sticks out for me is a song performed by a singer called Norma Waterson of Waterson McCarthy fame. Now i have none of her stuff or, indeed, any of the McCarthy folk-dynasty's output but that tune she did just hooked me from the off. Oh .. and of course i can't remember the songs name but i can hum the tune?

John Cale singing Venus In Furs (a couple of years ago?) was all kinds of wonderful.

Yeah, I remember seeing At The Drive In going mental on Jools alright but was it music? Or just noise? Certainly made a change from Dr.John anyway.

Found the Manics performance of AUSTRALIA very powerful. Radiohead's 2+2=5 stunning, Bluetones reminded me of moments of great Brit Pop with SLIGHT RETURN performance, CAST (dont beat me up) when they did I'M SO LONELY was quite heart-string-tugging and Dave Grohl's solo effort of RAZOR was simply MIND BLOWING.
That's my Chips worth.
