What it says on the tin folks. Having a fine old time watching Amy Winehouse at Glastonbury and the Chili Peppers at Slane Castle and wondering what other full live concerts are awesome and available to watch online (on youtube or elsewhere)?

Also, not on YouTube, but if you haven't seen Stop Making Sense go track it down.

And here's Queen at Live Aid in 1985 (about 25 minutes) and Simon and Garfunkel in Central Park in 1981.

I started a shk specifically for Full Live Gigs that you may want to dig through. It gets contributions from several other members and ranges from jazz to punk to classic rock to hip-hop to EDM and everywhere in between.

Not youtube, but Live at Massey Hall might tickle your fancy.

BB King live at the Royal Albert Hall 2011

Hell, there are a ton of great BB King concerts on YouTube, but I love that one.

I like Pulp at Reading 2011. And my favorite concert recording ever is REM's Tourfilm. I think that might be the whole thing, chopped up into individual songs, but otherwise it's worth tracking down.

Paste Magazine has 619 full concerts on their YouTube channel, including my favourite Mountain Goats show ever (Bottom of the Hill, San Francisco, 2 March 2008).
