I was there for the Elvis Costello gig.
Best bands.
The Clash, Finsbury Park Rainbow, R A R 1978.
Sex Pistols, SPOTS tour. 78
Ramones, Leeds uni, 78
I could go on with this topic but that tends to defeat the object.

Some great bands being talked about. A lot of people showing their age of course but some classics on our lists.

Two of the best band's I have seen live though very under rates are The Beautiful South and Deacon Blue. I have seen both band's several times.
Every time I have seen them they have good rapport with fans and are pitch perfect.
Saw Paul Heaton last month he was good as he played Housemartins Beautiful South and stuff he's done with Jacqui Abbot

Ian Hunter is 77 next month - 3rd June - still releasing great albums and doing great gigs
Some of my favourites :
Georgia Satellites - Reading Festival 1987 (and many times since and these days it's Dan Baird & Homemade Sin equally as good anywhere)
Queen at Live Aid 1986
Iron Maiden at Unity Hall 1980 as mentioned by others - support band Praying Mantis were great too and are still going
Twisted Sister - Christmas Show - Nokia Theatre, NYC 2008 - not a band I play a lot at home but a great live band |

| Quote bren2k="bren2k"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.'"
I was at that Jack White gig - and hated it! Probably the worst gig I've ever been to! Soul-less, pretentious, up his own 'arris, and I was so looking forward to it! Opinions eh? |

I think gigs are a time and place/ state of mind sort of thing. We went to see The Cribs at Hull uni a couple of years since, three of us got relatively close to the stage, in the centre, we came out saying it's one of the best gigs We'd seen, the other three were stood at the back and hated every minute.
I mention a time and place/state of mind sort of thing, an instance here, as a kid I loved Joy division, we travelled all over the UK to watch them, I loved Unknown pleasures. I decided a while since to get the vinyl out and give it a play, I took it off after side one, it really did grate, what a disappointment. |
