tutsiwarrior Posted June 26, 2005 Posted June 26, 2005 Dylan Hendrix Doors Led Zep The Band all preferably in a club environment...couldn't hack any stadium rock after I passed 40 years... and (how could I forget?) Robert Crumb and 'The Cheap Suit Serenaders'...
sadman Posted June 27, 2005 Posted June 27, 2005 The Eagles '###### Freezes Over' tour The Who live at Charlton, which still holds the world record for being the loudest concert ever (true).
lampard10 Posted June 27, 2005 Posted June 27, 2005 I missed The Pougues in Bremen, Hamburg & Gothenburg. Went there each time. Each time I was too pissed to go. Bit like the film ' Pale Rider' Jeez...I've missed half my life through booze. The loudest group i've seen were 'The Buzzcocks' in Canterbury's Marlow Theater
mpdkorat Posted June 27, 2005 Posted June 27, 2005 I think that I would have really liked to have been at Woostock. One of the biggest sex drugs and Rock & Roll parties of all time. I would have only have been 12 years old though.
penzman Posted June 27, 2005 Posted June 27, 2005 Hendrix and Cat Mother & The All Night News Boys for opening act. Bjork Buckwheat Zydeco Queen Pink Floyd Led Zep Beatles ELO Split Enz Neil Finn (solo) CCR
Camelot Posted June 27, 2005 Posted June 27, 2005 Pink Floyd at the Pulse concert, London 1994. Not just the music (Dark Side of the Moon) but what a light show! Also the Newport Jazz Festival 1958, specifically Anita O'Day and Thelonius Monk. It was made into "Jazz on a Summer's Day".
The Gentleman Scamp Posted June 27, 2005 Posted June 27, 2005 LIVE AID Any BECK concert Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Brayan Ferry and Robbie Williams in Bangkok.
Boon Mee Posted June 28, 2005 Posted June 28, 2005 Elvis I never saw Elvis live and I had the opportunity...
lampard10 Posted June 29, 2005 Posted June 29, 2005 I have remembered a concert that I wish I had been there. It was televised so I watched a bit on the box, but surely not the same. It was the opening of the New Coventry Cathederal, when Tangerine Dream played their Richochet Album. I saw them do it later in Bremen, but I would imagine live in the magnificant accoustical setting of the Cathederal was a feast on the ears.

Because I think you may be just confusing a special concert with the opening of the cathedral. I was at the opening of the cathedral (nowhere near HMQ who was also there) but I don't remember the Dream. Without checking - but remembering I was about 14 or 15 at the time - puts the opening at 1963-4. Doesn't this pre-date the Tangerine Dream?
kayo Posted June 29, 2005 Posted June 29, 2005 DylanHendrix Doors Led Zep The Band all preferably in a club environment...couldn't hack any stadium rock after I passed 40 years... and (how could I forget?) Robert Crumb and 'The Cheap Suit Serenaders'... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> i can´t much mprove upon that, only add. Agreed with the setting required as well. My additions, Jeff Buckley Pink Floyd (early days, or well, any days) Cream Derek and the DOmino´s Buddy Guy Stevie Ray Vaughn

Sorry, I should have said re-opened.They had played in York Minster before that. What I have just realised looking it up is that BBC broadcast the concert about 10 months after the event.
