That said, watching the P-Funk at the Ritz in December was very special indeed.

Oasis at Maine Road, best I've ever seen them live...Not in person unfortunately as I was only 6 at the time.

I saw them at Heaton Park though and that was the best gig I've been to.

Hopefully The Roses gig will go down as a classic in Summer.

Sorry but you have to be there to really appreciate a great gig. I've been to hundreds over the years, in pubs, clubs and stadiums...

Best seen -

Graham Parker & the Rumour at the Rock against racism gig in (as I remember) Whitworth Park about 1978/9 - F*ckin brilliant and it was in the daylight!

Any Iggy Pop gigs through the late 70's and 80's- Awesome, every time!

Any Ramones gigs - Unstoppable

Saw daft punk a few years back, unbelievably good
