It's not about the gear! It's about you, your hands, your imagination, your feelings.

Jeff Tweedy's "Sunken Treasure" is a favourite at the minute...................I think Jeff Tweedy is at his best right now.

I like that DVD, it's one of the few music DVDs I own. I'm not the hugest Led Zep fan and I probably would never have bought it if I hadn't seen it playing at a party .. the live footage from it is mostly completely mesmerising.

The performance of 'Immigrant Song' on that DVD is fantastic.

I also like the black and white version of "Rock N' Roll" in the end of the second disk :)

Count me as a fan of the Led Zep DVD.  It's the only Zeppelin I own, but it really is something.

also- it's got JPJ offset content!

I can take or leave them really, though the DVD has some cool performances.

"Best ever" is tough... but my own favorite right now: Rory Gallagher Irish Tour '74. An absolute classic and shows him at his prime. I like the Led Zep box set too, especially Jimmy's solo performance of "White Summer".

others have already mentioned some of my favorites (REM Tourfilm, Cure Trilogy, Bauhaus Gotham), so i'll throw out a couple others i like.

Luna, "Tell Me Do You Miss Me" is a fascinating chronicle of that band's final tour with some great performances. also, "Open Road" by Cowboy Junkies is really cool. that was a good tour for "Open," which i think is the Junkies'  best album.
