Well not many 1 year olds go to concerts anywhere in the world. Do you mean not many 1 year olds travel from here to USA to go to a concert? I’m assuming if he did go to an Elvis concert at the age of 1 he was living in USA at the time.

Of course not. There’s only one Elvis. Anyone else is a cheap imitation but unfortunately Costello has been given this label. The use of quotation marks in his reference to Elvis would suggest there’s more to the story than meets the eye.

I don’t think anyone can claim to be somewhere by being present as a sperm. I’m pushing it by claiming to have been to an ABBA concert as an unborn foetus but I don’t think anyone can claim to be present before fertilisation has occurred.

Yeah, I think the quotation marks are quite telling and probably does indicate he means Elvis Costello. I don’t know what’s worse....trying to claim to have been to an Elvis Presley concert as a 1 year old or actually admitting to attending an Elvis Costello concert haha.

Too many to list..

One band I've seen many times are the Strang*ers. (fab won't let me type that word) ..but they did the song "golden brown"..they're always excellent live..

In the last few years I've avoided big stadium- type gigs that i would have gone to when i was younger... I've been going to small jazz gigs in intimate settings- up close where you can see right inside the piano..i love these kind of gigs.

"Loads but the most - Manic Street Preachers

The most surprising - Rihanna

Most disappointing - Eminem

Best - Green Day , placebo , The Pogues , Manics , Duran Duran

I would say for me Eminem’s concert got better.

Only because dr Dre came on stage.

I want to see Rihanna live.

Yes it was the sound at Wembley that night x Dre did save it

Oh my we went to the same concert

And as soon as I heard forget about Dre I knew something was up

When I say Dr you say .....

Couldn’t believe it when the stage opened "

I was at that show. Eminem was shockingly bad. The sound was awful but yes Dre was incredible.

I remember a couple of days before the concert my sister asked who do I think will be the supporting artist, and I said dr Dre and my sister doubted he would be there. But oh boy did I feel some type of way when I saw Dre come onto the stage. I was literally screaming.

I’m a big Eminem fan so anything to do with Marshall I’m on it like a heart beat.

I’m kinda glad that some fabbers have seen him too

There's so many more I'd love to see.

The biggest shock for me was Queen, well two members of and Adam Lambert. I went with my best friend and had her ear bent saying it's not Queen, there's no Queen without Freddie.

I have to take my hat off to Adam he is a helluva showman and after the opening number he addressed what i and probably many others were thinking. Not his words verbatim but something along the lines of.....

"Belfast, how you doing? I know what you're all thinking, I'm not Freddie Mercury....hell no I'm not and nobody could be but I am a huge Freddie and Queen fan and I hope you join me in celebrating their music tonight"

The show was immense
