Cream's Reunion at Royal Albert Hall from 2005. Ginger, John, and Eric never sounded so good.

Wow, I have so many favorites. But I'd have to agree with Sarah C, that Pink Floyd's Live at Pompeii is a fantastic film!
Another favorite of mine is 'Festival Express'. It's a classic award winning film set in Canada in 1970. Various artists including The Grateful Dead, Janis Joplin, The Band, Mashamakan, Flying Burrito Brothers, Buddy Guy, and many more, all pile on board the infamous bourbon-LSD- and-barbiturate-laced 'Festival Express' cross-Canada train tour in the summer of 1970. The film features the antics aboard the train, as well as many terrific live performances in various Canadian cites along the way. Highly recommended:

Rainbow - Live in Munich 1977
David Bowie - Ziggy Stardust & The Spiders From Mars

The Who - Live at the Isle of White 1970
Black Oak Arkansas - Live at Royal Albert Hall
Gentle Giant - BBC Sight And Sound In Concert 1978.

Colosseum - Live The Reunion Concert.
Ozric Tentacles - Live at the Pongmasters Ball
Deep Purple - California Jam
Nektar - Live
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Off the Map
Van Der Graaf Generator - Godbluff Live 1975

Edit - Will is correct, that Cream reunion DVD is worth checking out. My only complaint was that I really wished Eric had used the same vintage fuzz tones/sounds, and wah wah on many of the classics that they performed. His performance seemed a little too laid back at times. But hey, who ever thought they'd get back together? So I guess we should be fortunate right?

Considering that all of the other answers are from 30 years ago, i'm taking a chance with recent band, but On The Road with the Dropkick Murphys is excellent. The footage was taken from their now legendary 2002 St. Patrick's Day shows in Boston. I got a chance to go this year and no band draws on the energy of the crowd more than DKM. They stop singing on numerous songs to let the audience singalong and you get chills from how loud they are.

Iron Maiden's Rock In Rio, with all the "in Rio" performances on film it almost makes me want to live there (almost).

The Song Remains the Same by Led Zepplin, but the Band's tribute was excellent as well.
