Gig/concert life - What are you excited for and what have your best memories been?

[Wolfie]

Guns and Roses probably a favorite, seeing Ozzy in December in Manchester.

 

GnR at Wembley in 1991 was my first concert. I was them twice more after that at the MK bowl.

One band I have never seen but sooooo want to is Fleetwood Mac, bet they'd be awesome:biggrin:

 

Fleetwood mac are a strong rumour for Glastonbury next year!!

Various bands in the early '90s,some good, some worse than the warm-up act. However all eclipsed by Queen at the O2, sadly post-Freddy Mercury (Paul Rogers - ex Free on vocals) but Brian May was brilliant. My wife was pregnant with our eldest at the time and she kicked along in time through the whole concert.

 

However, even that was beaten by Leonard Cohen a couple of weeks ago. Absolutely outstanding from end to end - over 3hrs on stage and holding the whole 20,000 audience in silence at some points. I can't think of anyone else who can do that at the age of 79!

Saw Hendrix in London '68, Janis Joplin at Monterey Festival '69, Led Zeppelin at Madison Square Gardens '73, Nirvana at Reading '94 , they were alright i suppose.

 

(i would give my right bollock for that statement to be true!)

 

Off the top of my head Prodigy at Isle of Wight 06 and Rage Against The Machine at reading 08 were sick.
