favourite gig?

[whoboo]

I really can't decide, there are a few possibilities. Yours?

Catatonnia Glastonbury 1998 - just magical in the rain as well

Quite possibly the Holy Moly and The Crackers final rodeo gig before they went on hiatus. It was absolutely amazing. They are coming out of hiatus for a festival this summer and found a couple of gigs too so I'm seeing them again on Thursday and I can't wait!

Have sent some great ones though so hard to choose. Bellowhead are always brilliant, The Imagined Village. As a piece of theatre The Young Uns Ballad of Jonny Longstaff was very good.

Bryan Adams at York Grand Opera House. It was such an intimate acoustic gig, even my hubby who isn't a huge Bryan Adams fan says its one of the best gigs he's ever been to, which is high praise for him.

Same but I would have LOVED to have seen him perform at his prime.

Jeff Buckley at The Garage, Islington 1994

The Black Crowes at The Astoria 1996

Primal Scream Brixton Academy 1999

The Smiths Hammersmith Palais 1984

The Pogues The Mean Fiddler 1986

More recently, St Paul and the Broken Bones at the Jazz Cafe 2018

I’ve been to more gigs than I can remember over the years but Magazine in Nov 2011 after waiting 30 years will never be beaten

Radiohead at South Park in Oxford 2001.

For me it would be:
Prince - After party gig at Camden Palais.
Primal Scream -Glastonbury
Nirvana - Reading Festival
Lou Reed - Glastonbury
Nick Cave - All Points East
Leonard Cohen - 02

i am ancient, i have seen pretty much everyone i've ever wanted to see (except Talking Heads)

but I am also perma-broke. Because of all the gigs 😂

Saw Jeff Lynne at Manchester after Birmingham. I only went because DH wanted to but I really enjoyed it. He was great. Obviously unwell by the end of it though and sad that the rest of the dates were cancelled.

We love SFG, not technically the best musicians but put on a fun show. Looking forward to the roundhouse

I can't say whovmy favourite is, all have something special

Chappel Roan (and the crowd) at Reading last night were amazing

Imagine Dragons at Reading and also Tottenham due to the venue

Skinny Lister at The Thekla being on a boat was brilliant

Ah that’s a hard one!

Prince at the O2 2007
Fleetwood Mac, Tom Petty, Bruce Springsteen at IOW
Tom Petty and Stevie Nicks at Hyde Park
Taylor Hawkins tribute at Wembley
A second vote for Pink, I took my niece and it was her first gig, what a night
And weirdly, Dizzee Rascal at Glastonbury! Pet Shop Boys were fantastic as well.

So many.

Genesis in Amsterdam in 2007.
Roger Waters in Lisbon in 2002.
Nils Lofgren and Tom Petty in the Glasgow Apollo (sometime in the 70s).
Eagles at Wembley in 1996.
Eric Clapton and Muddy Waters also at Glasgow Apollo in the 70s.
Summer of 84 concert at Wembley.
Phil Collins and Mike and the Mechanics in Lisbon in 2004
Simple Minds at the Hydro in Glasgow 2024

There are loads more but these are probably my stand out ones.
