There and to the left a bit

Really can't pick just one - as there have been so many good ones - but my usual list is something like this:

Madness - Madstock, Finsbury Park - 8th August 1992

Green Day - Hyde Park July 2017

Muse - Emirates and Etihad Stadiums - May/June 2014

The Beat - Hammersmith Palais - October 1982

Biffy Clyro - Dublin/Belfast - November 2016

I am ever so envious about those gigs! Especially Pink Floyd

I have been to Brit Floyd a few times who are incredible but to see the real thing must have been out of this world!

The Manchester concert was good too. But the Barca one had an awesome after-party and was just feel good. Flight home was a bit reply tho-too much vino rosso.

Quite a few years ago, we bumped into Mark Knopfler playing with a skiffle band in a pub in North Yorkshire to about 20 people. Weird and surreal. We didn’t even understand the significance of it at the time x

I think it was first Monster of Rock at Donnington. Headlined by Rainbow, Judas Priest, Saxon and others. Lot of the others become major headline bands.

Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel. With an orchestra and choir at the Albert Hall. Sensational stuff that made me quite emotional as they were the first band I saw aged seventeen, and it was my first visit to the Albert Hall.

Me too, then the british guy formed Brit Floyd and they are just as good. Possibly why they were invited to play for Dave Gilmour.

Still wish I'd seen the real thing though

I've been to many rock gigs over the years and seen some fantastic bands but one of the most memorable was The Steve Gibbons Band at Poole Arts Centre. The floor was literally bouncing, you just had to bounce along, great gig.
