First: some local punk band that probably nobody knows, we were still kids at that time and thus had to be accompanied by a friends mother, we found that deeply embarrassing back then, but kudos for that old lady to spend such an evening with us.
Best: Probably David Bowie in Cologne, must have been around 2005 or so
Last: a small gig of some lesser known punk band (Milenrama) in a local pub here, only several weeks ago. I'd like to apologize for the poor quality of the post above and sincerely hope you didn't waste your time reading it. Yes, I do feel bad about it.

"My Concert Friend"-- A Short Short Story I had a good friend named Mark. He was one of those guys who always invited trouble. He looks a lot like Mickey Rooney.
One day, Mark said, "Damn, this small Texas city sure is boring. Khergit, want to go see Neil Young and the Shocking Pinks?" I didn't really. Neil was all 70s-like. Earth-colored clothes, hairy, acoustic-strummy. Now we're in the precision 80s, having to choose between haircut English bands, weird brainy synthesizer tones bands such as Gary Numan, Kraftwerk, The Residents, Swiss F-1 team sponsor millionaire or something Yello, the always under-noticed Bill Nelson Not to mention the punk and gothic guys who were setting the stage for post-Led Zep/Stones/Who "Were [sic] not your monkey and so what?"-á -The Sex Pistols (2006) |

Eevee, pls.
My taste in music and the means to play it is pretty old fashioned.
What if I told you I still have a record player?
And several old classics on vinyl?
And that I am in fact just now listening to Iron Maiden's Killers LP on vinyl?
You youngsters will never understand, but every scratch and crackle is awesome and adds to the listening experience. I'd like to apologize for the poor quality of the post above and sincerely hope you didn't waste your time reading it. Yes, I do feel bad about it.

First - Cosmic rough Riders, Bangor
Stood right next to the base woofer thingy and had ringing ears for the rest of the night.
Last - Blur, Hyde Park
Awesome, awesome show with all the fan favourite marred by the fact I was bursting to go after a few pints, and ended up listening to Song 2 being played whilst using the latrines.
Favourite - The Cooper Temple Clause, The Quad, London
One of those cult status bands during the indie rock boom of the early 2000s, mixing in electronica, metal, and punk rock. Didn't get so drunk, but I left with gruff vocals from shouting and singing along to the songs. A lot of energy from the band and some mahem from the crowd. Good times. |

Confirming that Fields of the Nephilim are still amongst the best life bands ever.
Oh, and Sisters of Mercy are the worst, don't even bother with buying a ticket.

surprisingly when me and wife went to see the nephlim and the sisters the amount of peeps that walked out as soon as the nephelim finished their set was suprising looks like most of the goths don't like them either |

Quite true. Thing is, the old Sisters songs are awesome and altogether classics by now. Almost every goth worth his salt knows them up and down. Many bands did cover versions, most of them quite decent. The irony is that nobody does a worser job than Sisters when performing these songs.
Take the eternal classic, "Alice", for example. this is a recent performance by them. And it's not the fault of the video, the sound is really that bad, and you cannot see the stage at all because of all the fog.
Now take any cover version by an other band, any one you want, and you'll realize why most people like Sisters of Mercy any more nowadays....

I've only been to a couple large-scale concerts that I was dragged to by friends, not worth mentioning. First, I don't remember but it would have been local rappers in my city. Last I think was Fair To Midland, again dragged to by friends.
Favorites are ones where it is your friends performing and it goes well. |

First - Lamb of God, Darkest Hour, God Forbid, and some other band I can't remember, in 2001.
Last - Katatonia and Opeth last year.
Favorite - The last one. I had been planning to see both of those bands for the last decade, but work got in the way every time they played near me. As a bonus, Opeth's playlist for that show didn't involve any of the new hippie bullshit they've put on their last two albums. |

First and favorite: Nine Inch Nails - 2008: Lights in the Sky
This show was beyond incredible. I have seen Nine Inch Nails twice since and they still have not topped this particular tour on a visual scale. This year's tour was great, but still didn't approach the intensity of LitS.
Last show: NIN 2014
Second favorite: Either Tool or Atmosphere. I attended both of these concerts in 2012. Gêâ |

My first concert was Eve 6 and Third Eye Blind, way back in the day when I was 14 or 15.
Last concert I went to was Bayfest on Oahu, but honestly I don't remember a lot of it since I was drinking all the beers.
My absolute favorite show I got to go to was Dragonforce when they played Honolulu. Their stage presence was amazing and their bass player played through a solo while chugging Jack Daniels from the bottle. |

First concenert was a rock festival in Munich, Germany (Rock im Park), 1994. There were dozens of bands but to name a few, Van Hallen, Slash and the Snake Pit, Faith no More, Bonjovi, etc, etc, etc.
The last concert was one of my favourite in Seoul, Korea 2012. It was a Morrissey concert and the best part of it was that I got to see him sing "I know it's over" for the first time. I haven't been to his concerts as much but I have a mate who's been to over 10 Morrissey concerts and never seen him perform this song live, so it was special to see him perform one of my favourite songs.
Not my favourite band, but one of the best concerts I've been to was Radiohead's OK computer tour in Munich, Germany, 97 or 98 I think. They came to stage like over an hour late but when the hall went dark and 'Fitter, healtiher...' began to roll out the crowd went mad and just the atmosphere through out the whole concert was electrifying.
So many good memories when I look back now, mostly from 90s and 2000s as that was my teenage & 20s. |

Yeah, me too. Born in the 70's, raised in the 80's, came of age in the 90's, traveled the country in the 2000's.
Good times.
As Tom Petty says, "well the good old days may not return..." but it's ok. Life goes on and is what we make of it.

My first one was, um, Steve Hillage in 1977.
A few weeks later I saw Rainbow and they were amazing and then a year later I was at the first ever Whitesnake gig (front row, slap bang centre) and I have a front of house poster of that night framed above my drum kit in my studio.
Best gigs? Well, I often seem to get front row dead centre for a Albert Lee and he's brilliant to watch just feet away. I've seen Rory Gallagher in a small Belgian village hall which was intimate and wonderful. I've seen Thunder in a small cafe in Southern Germany tear the place apart.
But the best? Has to be Reading Festival in 1980. The line-up was out of this world. Whitesnake headlined, Gillan played with his own band, Rory Gallagher was there, Pat Travers too. Not to forget that was the year that Slade made their comeback when they replaced Ozzy Osbourne at the last minute. Who else was there? Well, Nine Below Zero, a brilliant estuary blues band tore the place apart. UFO were there. So were Def Leppard and so were Iron Maiden.
Bruce Dickinson was there, not with Maiden but with his previous band, Samson. Gary Moore's band was there too as was the band from South Wales, Tygers of Pan Tang.
Now, nothing ever came close to Reading '80. And it didn't even rain.
The last band I saw was last year; Rush in Sheffield. Magic as ever.
But when it comes to the personal touch; this lady often crashes out here on the sofa: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Ltq_5jwn14
Top that. Pam:-á I wonder what my name means in Welsh?Nessa: Why? |
