Boards of Canada. Never live. But I dislike that kind of thing, crowds, driving etc, so no biggie.

Elvis Costello but I've only seen him twice. I like CAKE a lot too and have seen them 4 or 5 times.

Haendel’s Messiah. I have seen it live a dozen times, never fails to impress.

Alabama 3. I saw them lots of times in little pub venues and playing non-main stages at festivals in the mid to late 90's.

Blew my mind when I went to live in the US in 1999, put the TV on, and one of their tracks turned out to be the opening theme tune to this relatively new show called The Sopranos.

My favorite band that I've actually seen live:

Duran Duran. Was a closet fan of theirs back in the late 80's and got to see them when my girlfriend at the time got tickets.

Actual favorite band and unfortunately have never seen live:

RUSH

And it's not because I think that Neil Peart is the greatest drummer of all time (that would be Buddy Rich). It's because their music actually talks to my neurodivergent brain. It is also due to that the 3 of them were a confluence of exceptional talent that just happened to come together to make something special.

I would say femtanyl. It's also the only one I have seen live. I'm really hoping there will be another Europe tour because I doubt I will be able to go to North America anytime soon.

Neko Case, who is also a member of the New Pornographers. I have seen both her solo act and TNP probably about 10-15 times.

It's hard to pick one favorite because I have so many. If I had to pick one it'd be Collide but I haven't seen them live. However, I've seen Garbage four or five times so far and that's not enough.

I have a bunch of stuff from Collide though. My name is on 2-3 of their albums, and I have their hand written lyrics and notes to the song they wrote for Underworld 4

Cory Wong! Band is as tight as can be. Vibe is playful, dynamic, and celebratory of all on stage.

Have seen him live only once, but he posts incredibly well-mixed and edited full-length concerts on his YouTube.

He fully deserves his blowup. Incredible musicianship abounds around him

I've seen The Cat Empire thrice, back when they were my favourite band.

Hiatus Kaiyote, by far and away, it isn't even close.

I don't go to concerts lots so zero.

I've seen a few bands, but only tagging along with friends, never seen anyone I actually like. Tbh I'm not a big fan of live music anyway. There's something about it not being 100% the same as I'm used to that just makes me not like it as much.

Carbon Based Lifeforms. I haven't, I doubt I ever will since crowds ruin music for me.
