Queen, at any venue.

Michael Jackson when he first did the moonwalk.

Elvis in his early days.

Or Manic Street Preachers in their youth, when all of them were together.

As an aside, and it's a while since i've looked, but there was and probably still is an amazing website ( set up and run by Billy Graham concert promoter) featuring Rock Concerts through the 60's, 70's and 80's maybe beyond. Searchable for your fave band by name and date. Quality is variable as you would expect.

Google for "Wolfgangs Vaults"

Can you spot a concert at which you were there?

If anyone knows any more accurate orupdated info, please add.

Back in around 95 I had to choose between Bon Jovi and Guns n Roses for which concert I would see, daughter was due to come to this life so couldnt afford both, both concerts at MK Bowl I chose to the Jovi!! My bad as they returned the year after whereas GnR were to split!! Whilst Jovi were brilliant I hate that fact I missed that chance to see Axl, Slash and Duff

Back in the late 80's I chose Carter USM in a pub rather than The Pixies in Brum Hummingbird. And while I still love Carter, I still wish I'd seen The Pixies before the split!

Morrissey's first solo gig when he played at Wolverhampton Civic hall for free but you had to wear a Smiths shirt.

I've missed a lot of bands at festivals because I was fucked...

Other than that the bands I wished I'd seen were before my time

ZZ top at Brixton a few years ago. It was on my birthday and Mrs P said the children had planned something for me. I have the ticket to my brother and he said it was one of the best he'd been to.

I would loved to have seen the White stripes before they split as well. I've seen Jack White and he was brilliant.

We've seen Tina Turner twice. Not normally my type of thing but she does put on an excellent show. Really enjoyed it.

I saw Morrisey bottled off stage at fiinsbury park. He was supporting Ian Dury and the blockheads and Madness. I was a massive smiths fan so I felt sorry for him. I don't think it stifled his career though.

It was a bit before then. I don't think he was macho enough for the madness crowd. It was the first gig they'd done in years and they were a little excitable.

Their set seemed to go on for about 10hrs!

Very slow....fuck knows how we got back to the tent......I do remember asking Liz to fuck me with her mind and then pronouncing I had cum, whereupon she said "no you haven't you Pratt"

Tent neighbours didn't speak to us after that

i was at the '86 wembley gig. travelled up from south wales with a load of others on a coach and got there 4 hours before the turnstiles opened so we sat outside the greyhound pub drinking. it was ROASTING HOT!!!! eventually we got in and found some shade in the stands, couldn't be arsed with being crushed by idiots on the pitch or the sun (it was really strong that day). INXS were on first... and boy did they suck balls big time!!!! don't think i've ever seen such a shite band. The Alarm were good but then Quo came on and they were bollocks too, not as bollocks as INXS mind. Queen eventually came on and some huge inflatables of each band member started to get inflated. the one of john deacon wasn't secured properly and floated off out of the stadium and away into the sky. i heard they got a row off the CAA for that. it wasn't a bad day out and of course i was very very d*unk.

I was very pissed that day and off my tits on painkillers as I'd just come out of hospital after having my knee ligaments reconstructed!

To be fair there were only about 400 people at Birmingham Odeon to see Inxs a few weeks before too, so they weren't very well known.

Saw him on his last tour, Broadway the hard way. Three times, at the Brighton Pavilion & twice at Wembley Arena. Different show each night, as he always did. He is also sadly missed.

Saw Banned From Utopia a few weeks back at The Jazz Cafe in Camden. They're worth seeing, all ex Zappa band & you wouldn't even know Frank wasn't there as he trained them all so well.

Google them.
