For sound quality, atmosphere and sheer value for money it has to be Status Quo, next best Big Country, ELO, Whitesnake, Slade and Rush.

I was at that Mott gig, also saw them at Sheffield.
Rory Gallagher was actually the best ever guitarist, saw him in 1976ish either Sheffield or Leeds. Uriah Heep also 76 at Bradford |

Pretenders and Squeeze both at the Tech Dance at The Technical College circa 78/79. If I close my eyes I can almost smell the patchouli oil even now.

That's just jogged my memory!
We went to see Brendan Croker and the 5 o'clock Shadows in a tent (well it was a big tent) in Pontefract park (I kid you not). Whilst we were queuing to get in, I said to my other half that I was sure that I'd just seen Mark Knopfler getting out of a limo, she told me not to be so soft (or words to that effect). Anyway, half way through the concert, Brendan Croker introduced a special guest. So Mark Knopfler playing in Pontefract park was a bit special!
On a similar theme, I was once in a pub in Masham when in walked the lead vocalist and writer for the Strawbs ie Dave Cousins. After a couple of pints of Old Peculier, the landlord persuaded DC to get his guitar out of his car boot and we had an intimate concert to a couple of dozen people. Again that was special. |

Mark Knopfler and Brendan croker were two of the main elements of the Notting Hillbillies i believe, One album (Missing presumed having a good time) must dig it out again and have a listen. |

Sepultura, Pantera and Alice in Chains at Nottingham Rock City in the early 90's - not together, that would have been too much to take, but all 3 were brilliant and brutal; Pantera in particular was bordering on scary.
Radiohead in a circus tent in Warrington in October 2000 - amazing.
Jack White at the Leeds Arena in Nov 2014 - one of my idols, a brilliant musician and a fantastic show; and the support act from that night, Lucius, back in Leeds at the Brudenell Social Club a couple of weekends ago headlining their own tour - not my usual fare, but a brilliant live sound, and met them afterwards like a proper fanboy.
