I would have to say that you

I would have to say that you are missing another movie that rocked. Junos soundtrack was one of my favorite music movies of all time. I think Woodstock would be my second pick just because it was one of the biggest music festivals ever.

How is..

Juno a rock concert film?

Yes, it's a fine soundtrack though.

I saw the beasties perform at

I saw the beasties perform at spring break back in the 90's it was pretty insane im from LI so seeing a local legend like that play is awesome, i try and go to as many concerts as possible every summer even went to two shinedown concerts this year. I dont think there is a best rock concert film. Maybe when everyone went nuts at woodstock there's no comparison to that.

I didn't have the chance to

I didn't have the chance to view them all but I specially like Woodstock.

super exciting!!! enough said.

one concert:

one concert: Wattstax.

multiple concerts:
1991: The Year Punk Broke
Lightning Bolt: The Power of Salad

Wattstax!

Great call - we defintely missed that one. A fantastic film which surely influenced Dave Chappelle's Block Party in some ways.

dazed and more confused

1. the song remains the same--long live taravel street's parkside theater and beer bongs in the cow palace parking lot.

2. rude boy--see above under long live parkside theater.

3. dead kennedy's-dmpo's on broadway--r.i.p. the mab.

4. the cramps live at napa state mental hospital --the good old days when crazy people got respect and free concerts.

How Could You Forget!

Hedwig and the Angry Inch wins hands down. And, yes, there's certainly Almost Famous. These are rock n roll movies because you get the rock n roll with characters, with plot, with laughs and drama, and with film making.

Excellent films, but...

Wouldn't call them concert films since they're fictional. But as rock movies go those are definitely two of the best - and they are indeed full of rich music.

Leonard Cohen: I'm Your

Leonard Cohen: I'm Your Man

If only for the Antony version of If It Be Your Will. To die for!

Stop Making Sense was great,

Stop Making Sense was great, but my vote goes to a video by my favorite band ever- Oingo Boingo's farewell show on Halloween from Universal Amphitheatre, where I saw them perform every year from 1985-2003.

Well...

What are we missing? Those of you who voted for "other." Maybe the Who's Kids Are Alright? Although that's not just a concert film... The Beastie Boys "Awesome..." is pretty cool, too, though not one of the all time greats. I always loved Urgh! A Music War, though that isn't just one concert.
