Musicians and their onstage antics

I searched, but could not find a thread about this.

The title says it all really... it's a thread for discussion of how musicians act onstage.

I'll start it off...

Greg from Dillinger Escape Plan is absolutely wild. Breathes fire, runs into the audience, passes the mic back and forth between the audience, stands on Conan's desk...

Ian Anderson is fucking crazy/awesome.

Dillinger are batshit insane, how they manage to play such extremely technical songs while flailing around enough to make At the Drive In embarrassed is a mystery.

Tera Melos are (or were, they're not as fun live anymore) equally batshit insane.

Word...

Speaking of At The Drive-In, Cedric and Omar...

Apparently they stopped using drugs long before this performance too.

If you have never read the Butthole Surfers chapter in the book Our Band Could Be Your Life I suggest you immediately search it out...
