Best band you've seen live?

[Blue Maverick]

Genesis in Geksenkirchen 1992 before Phil died RIP

Nearly fell asleep in Lofgren’s set. TP&H blew him away.

Totally, all that mini trampolining got boring.

 

[Blueknows]

Bowie - Maine rd 1987
Radiohead -glastonbury
Pulp

 

[CambridgeExileBlue]

Queen at Wembley in the 80s -what music and show

AC/DC also at Wembley

Genesis early 80s at the NEC - first major concert- it was one Charles and Diana were at.

 

[RiversideBlue]

Not my favourite group by any means but I watched Duran Duran at the MEN, on a saturday night, about 10 years ago. Everyone was pissed and it was like everyone had reverted back to their 80s youth. Amazing atmosphere. Best gig i've ever been to and ive seen quite a few.

Def Leppard.

 

[Pearceman]

Springsteen at St James park in 85.
Stray cats, manchester academy 88.
Frank Turner Manchester apollo a couple of years back.

Queen and Quo, Maine Rd 86

 

[gouldybob]

Prince with 3rdeyegirl at the Arena
Stone Roses at Blackpool, better at International 2 a few months before but this was the event
New Order on there resurrection at Manchester Apollo in July '98.
Six of the Best October outdoor event in 1982. Pissed it down, missed City beat Coventry at Maine Road, but Peter Gabriel came back and sang Suppers Ready and Steve Hackett played The Knife.

I've seen 100's of bands over the years, so very hard, but hmm top 3 must be. Runrig final ever performance at Stirling Castle, purely for emotional reasons, and then Bruce Hornsby in 89/90 and The Alarm at Pontins for the flood victims in 89 I think.
