Live concerts

[jennybugs]

We went to see Kings of Leon at Hyde Park last night and I have to say Caleb Followill's voice was amazing! Foo Fighters and Dave Grohl's voice aside, his voice is probably the best I've ever heard live. He made it look so effortless and they played a great mix of new and old material.
The Foos at Wembley Stadium was the best I've ever seen live, and I've also been lucky enough to see alot of big names live over the years, and that set me wondering who you've all seen and who put on the best show for you?

 

[David S]

I've seen quite a few but, for me, there is no topping Pink Floyd live at Earls Court. Mind blowing!

I haven't seen anyone live for a while, and I haven't seen many...
I think the last time was 2004 when I saw Incubus do their A Crow Left of the Murder tour in 2004, MEN arena. Ah, was a good night
Before that it was Placebo in one of the Leeds uni halls, 2003, Sleeping With Ghosts.
Oh, and I saw Capdown yes who were supporting Weezer no in a free event in Leeds, called Breeze. Didn't want to see Weezer, I went for the support band

I don't know who the last band my husband saw was, but I know who the first was. Quite embarassing for him, actually

Pantera at Manchester Apollo was good but so was Metallica at G-mex, its a close call but id have to say Pantera seeing that without Dimebag there will never be another chance to see them

Went to see kings of leon in manchester on sunday and just thought it was a poor show, the crowd never got going which I would say was due to a poor set list. Have seen foo fighters a few times and they are amazing, can't wait for them in milton keynes next saturday

I wish I had seen Queen live. That's one regret of mine.
My list includes Michael Jackson, the Stones, Meatloaf, Guns n Roses, Tina Turnip, Saxon, Status Quo, Rod Stewart, Madness...

I just remembered, my mum took me to see Ralph McTell when I was 3 or 4. He sang Alphabet Zoo songs!

He even signed my Alphabet Zoo CD, because I have the same name as one of his 'T' animal songs

Macc Lads.

Absolutely fanchuffingtastic.

Saw them about a half a dozen times in the late eighties. Anything - absolutely anything could happen. I beleive the Hummingbird in Brum had to be closed down for a month for repairs.

 

[hom]

Macc lads, weren't they fond of boddingtons, chips and gravy?

My top 3 concerts were

Pink Floyd
Queen
Bowie
Spingsteen
