Haven't been to too many Black Cat shows but the one that stands out for mutual band/crowd energy would be Ash earlier this year

[markie]

I dont know why, but these are easy to remember than the 930..... Perhaps just because I have been to fewer shows there.
 
 Hives
 Frames/New pornographers
 Delgados
 Libertines

I love the 9:30, but I have more fond memories at the Black Cat, I have seen way more shows there I think, and the Delgados and Cinerama (2nd show) would be a couple of my favorites as well.

 Both are old Black Cat.  I feel like it's been a while since I've been dazzled, though New Pornographers was really good.

[Bags]

Wow, what a show.  Somehow I missed it (though at the time I didn't know P.B.).  Saw the Posies at the old Black Cat -- loved it, but Jon Auer pissed the shit out of me.
 
 And Sloan as well....I should have been reading this board back then.  I've been into Sloan for a couple years, and they've only played 9:30 Club since.

[Sir HC]

Old:
 Spiritualized (Bassist had on a Betty Ford clinic shirt)
 The Ex with Tom Cora.  They did several albums together that are brilliant, and to see Tom play with them live (he is a cellist) was better than I could have hoped.
 Meat Beat Manifesto.  For some reason no one was there, very empty, but Jack still kicked out the jams.
 
 New:
 The Fall.  Sure they had to "revive" Mr. Smith but once he was on he was on.
