I saw the Flaming Lips perform next to a radio telescope a couple of years ago. That was the perfect setting for the band. They projected images about space onto the surface of the dish which sort of dwarfed the band.

DJ Food's show has only played two planetaria but he wants to take it to more:

did Emerald Web really play at a planetarium? that's amazing; I would give anything to have seen that. ditto for Iasos, Laurie Spiegel, Isao Tomita, or really any of those hyper-melodic contemporary composers of that era. I bet the Durutti Column playing in a venue like that might be rad too.
as far as contemporary acts, I would slit throats to see Oneohtrix Point Never or Nils Frahm or (God permitting) Delia Gonzalez & Gavin Russom play a planetarium. also Lindstrom.

I was at the debut of the new Shabazz Palaces album, which was held in a planetarium.

I turned my high school's tiny home built planetarium into a recording studio if that counts. No tour though.
