I have not heard of most of them, but I would loved to have seen Joan Baez.

EJ because I begrudgingly went (bday gift for girlfriend) but really enjoyed the show.....The fact that it was outdoors on the lawn & a lot of grass was being smoked & wafting around probably helped mellow me out to enjoy it..... Saw Elvis at the top of his game = probably the most charismatic performer I've seen..... Elvis waaaaaaaal, I bet that was something, but Peltin Elton????

August 27, 20187 yr 2 hours ago, thecaveman said: I have seen many of the big ones but it's still easy to name the most outstanding concert of them all. That clearly was Garth Brooks' 1st appearance in Germany on April 15th, 1994, Frankfurt. Garth Brooks, great showman, but found it hard to accept him as a country singer. To me he was a rock singer in a cowboy hat.

August 27, 20187 yr Various acts at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, Tennessee. Roy Acuff, Hank Snow, Porter Waggoner and his All Girl Band, Johnny Rodrigues.
August 27, 20187 yr Hyde Park 1968...………..Traffic (with the excellent Steve Wynwood), The Nice, Pretty Things, Juniors Eyes and The Action (I think). The Nice set ended with them burning the US flag which didn't go down too well in the newspapers the next day!!

August 27, 20187 yr 1- Midnight Oil 2- Billy Joel 3- Skyhooks 4- Dragon My top four. Who I missed seeing was Linkin Park before Chester passed away. That band was on my to-do list. I was way too young to see many of the bands posted here but I would have loved to have been there.
