Best concert you’ve been to

Feeling nostalgic and thinking back to my favourite concerts I’ve been to in my time.

Mine would be Alicia Keys, Beyoncé, P!nk, Rihanna, Evanescence, Eminem, Christina Aguilera.

I envy those 10+ years older than me that got to experience some incredible performers such as Michael Jackson, live in concert.

Ooh and fleetwood Mac in 2016 I think. Unbelievable.

@Enjoyallthewine I have a feeling I was at that RW one! I'm not huge fan of his more recent stuff but that was a cracking gig (before he got too much of a t*%t!)

YES!!! Love those damn crows, definitely on the playlist!

Yay, I love finding other people who like some of the less well known bands! We were at the arena last night and in between the (100's of them) people with the t-shirts from the bands on and the "big" bands I spotted a few Crows tees and a fair few other NWOCR bands we've seen and love 😍

Marc Almond in the early/mid eighties was another fantastic concert as his singing voice was in its prime. He was terrific.

Saw him supporting Jools Holland in about 2004...he was wonderful

One I forgot to mention was Anita Baker. Saw her in the 90's and she was phenomenal. Funny and what a voice!

Another I just remembered was Chumbawamba - they were all dressed as nuns & flew run the tiny stage with great energy. It was a great show

Have come back to this thread to see everyone’s replies and I am certainly not disappointed. Amazing!

I've seen that and saaaaaame!
My upstairs neighbour told me that last time he toured here he was amazing and did Hampden Park, so hopefully he does it again.
I'm so there.
(Are you who I think you are with a name change?)

I don't think so.....never had a name change 😀.

We're thinking of doing one of the European dates already announced, if I was a betting woman I reckon he'll be doing at least one of the BST Hyde Park weekends and they are super expensive so would be as much to fly to Barcelona or Amsterdam for a couple of days! I can't stand the Etihad or Anfield near me so would have to travel anyway...........will keep my fingers crossed you get a date north of the border

The Cure at Bestival was pretty special. Just an amazing afternoon listening to a fab band in the sunshine

I'll just go closest for him, which is Glasgow.
Sorry, I thought you may have been someone else on here who is nuts about him!

StrawberryLipstickStateOfMind1 · 30/05/2022 20:21

Resurrecting this to say that Pet Shop Boys in Glasgow last night were brilliant.
Hit after hit after hit and Neil Tennant's voice is still amazing.
I had high expectations after reading a great review but they were even better.

LuckyAmy1986 · 30/05/2022 20:46

I've only been to a few:

Ja Rule and Ashanti (lol)
Neyo
Usher
Pink
Christina Aguilera
Destiny's Child
Swedish House Mafia
Gwen Stefani

But the ultimate for me was George Michael. He was amazing! Wish I could have seen him again.

Iggy Pop about 15 years ago at ATP (Holiday camp festival). So good I watched him twice. Absolutely incredible.
