Off Topic What is the best gig you've been to?

[JessRobinson]

Many come to mind, but three stand out:

1974 - Elton John on Goodbye Yellow Brick Road tour... I was 14
1981 - Pink Floyd doing The Wall from 30th row center... the wall was tall!
2006 - Green Day... mosh pit with my 10-year old at his first concert

And of course countless gigs in small clubs... like the one last night!

Lots of people saying Paul McCartney, I didn't think anyone actually liked him.

But (don't judge me) I would love to see the village people!

The Who 1975, Richfield Coliseum, Cleveland, Ohio. Many old-timers around here still regard this as the finest show they have ever seen. I agree.

Nah!!! The Who 1970 Sophie Gardens Cardiff supported by the (Unknown) James Gang.

The Who at vetch Field Swansea wasn't bad either with Little Feat Supporting.

Led Zep - early 70's Cardiff

Free - Bristol (Kossof was on form that night)

Rolling Stones Wembley London - early 70's

Thin Lizzy at the Top Rank Cardiff 70's

.. many more from the 70's ahhhhh!!!!

Deep Purple
Iron Maiden
Hammerfall
Oasis
Marcus Miller, Victor Wooten, Stanley Clarke,

All awesome gigs but I must say I really liked Oasis (forest national, Brussels, Belgium), but Iron Maiden at Graspop 2008 (Dessel Belgium) is still THE best one for me

Bella Fleck and the Flecktones (Does Victor have 6 fingers?)
Stevie Ray and Double Trouble

Was (Not Was) 1987 or 1988, don't remember which. Amazingly tight. Had a fantastic drummer who was only 22 years of age at the time.

Jamiroquai 1993, just after the release of their first album. Saw them at a festival, never heard them before, from that moment I was hooked.

Off to see The Who tonight, with Pino on bass. Should be a good one.
