Your best gig/ concert?

[Nickcaveinbrighton]

Ive just been to see Nick Cave. It doesn't get much better. (Are there many things in life better than amazing live music?)

Whats your best gig/ concert?

Michael Jackson at Wembley Stadium 1988

Divine Comedy in a nightclub in Madrid 2 years ago, right at the front, tiny venue, amazing mood and atmosphere, lovely friends, lovely hug from Neil afterwards - perfection.

I’ve seen the band many times in various places but that was the best.

Spanish people LOVE to sing and knew all the lyrics (I’m half Spanish) and it was just such a fun, warm atmosphere.

Chilli peppers for me too. Blown away! Arctic monkeys never disappoint either. Neither do the stereophonics! Kelly Jones makes me weak at the knees, every time!

I saw Arctic Monkeys for a pound in Sheffield in 2005 before the kicked off the year after!

My Chemical Romance at Wembley a couple of weeks ago. Front standing tickets …. Completely awestruck still!

Savage Garden about 2000-2001.

Prince, 1992 in Glasgow 💜

So many but a few that stand out - Pulp last year in Birmingham, recently B52S & Devo - Devo were awesome! Bjork at Glastonbury in the 90s. Leftfield at Glastonbury. The Flaming Lips at Womad. Happy memories!!

Bon Jovi August 2000. The last concert ever played at the old Wembley stadium. Phenomenal.

Cooper Alan Bristol 2026

Lady Gaga. She’s unbeatable and her fans make such a loving, friendly crowd.

Lewis capaldi. Bruce Springsteen and Phil Collins, all at bst Hyde park, all brilliant.

Pogues . Back in the day. Absolute blast of a night.

George Michael 2006

Elton John in 2012, he'd just had his first dc and the concert began at 6.30 and finished before 10pm which suited me.
Placido Domingo and Olga Borodina in the opera Samson and Delilah at the ROH. Amazing.

Queen at Knebworth Aug 8 1986, almost exactly 40 years.

Blur headlining Glastonbury in 2009 🤩

The Prodigy at Brixton Academy in 1995. My 16 yr old mind was blown.

I agree she’s brilliant live!

Led Zeppelin reunion in 2007 at the O2.
Top 5 days of my life, I was beside myself with happiness at finally getting to see them thirty years after I fell in love with them.
My father would not let me go to 1975 concerts at Earls Court, said I was too young.

Also Bowie at Hammersmith Apollo in 2002/3(?)
Three hours of the sweatiest gig ever with a set list of his greatest songs.

Queen, with Freddie.
Hands down the best gigs I have been to.

Live Aid. Nothing to beat it.

My Chemical Romance at Wolverhampton Wulfrun in early 2005 and again at Wolverhampton Civic at the end of the same year

I was there too!

Also Steve Harley in Bradford and U2 at Roundhay Park, Leeds in early 1990s

@Nickcaveinbrighton I was there too! It was incredible, easily up there with one of my top gigs. Flaming Lips were also fantastic

I’ve seen a lot of the biggies over the years-Coldplay, oasis, rem, kylie, Madonna, Britney, Beyoncé, Girls Aloud, Radiohead, blur, Sinead o Connor … best gig is still Delta Goodrem- she played a small gig in Ireland a few years ago, not by any means full and a lottt of gay guys- the whole room knew her songs off by heart and we all just sang!! First time going to a concert on my own and was lovely to not have to keep watching someone else to see were they enjoying!!
