Whats the best concert(s) you've been to? Try and only have 1 or 2.

Mine are:

Big concert: Christina Aguilera
Smallish concert: Kosheen

Both were excellent but so different.

So what are yours?

    my favourite was Green Day at the Manchester Cricket Ground, it was cool because there were 5 other bands on the bill, Hoobastank, Rival Schools, A, Less Than Jake and No Doubt. It was probably that it was my first gig, my favourite band at the time and we were outside in the fresh air that made it the best.

    AC/DC at MK Bowl. Also had The Offspring, Queens of the Stone Age and Megadeth there.

    But Motorhead at the Southampton Guildhall was the most brutally loud gig I've been to.

    Kylie was great! Saw her at the BIC in Bournemouth, which is tiny, a year or 2 ago before she started doing the huge places again!

    Oasis gig at Loch Lomond was great a few years back but there was loads of bands playing. Black Grape being the pick of the bunch.

    Robbie Williams was good in concert also both at Hampden and in Paris.

    My fav though has to be a Pink Floyd tribute band. They are absolute class and the closest I'll ever get to listening to the tunes live. :D

    metallica at the RDS in Dublin was amazing, hearing enter sandman and one live will live with me forever

    ozzfest 2002 is a close second, so many good bands played, therapy? and SOAD and Slayer. brilliant

    My best was possibly the Manics last year in Cardiff because they were my favourite band at the time and it was the very very last date of the tour so they went all out with the setlist.

    Another really good one was in a park in Belfast where Primal Scream were headlining in a big tent and Snow Patrol and Idlewild were also playing.

    I when't to see Fiddy Cent a few months ago in Detroit which was cool. I also saw Fiddy & Eminem in Milton Keys when I was over here in the summer.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Actually, mine wasnt foos it was the first eminem concert, the 2nd one the sound fucked up when cypress hill were playing... WASNT HAPPY AT ALL!!!
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Queen, in the 80s. It was the Works tour.

    Next I would have to say was The Darkness, great show.

    Funnily enough, Chubby Checker would be next. Most of you aren' old enough to have heard of him. I wasn't expecting anything special but it was an excellent show...

    I was at that too! The Scream were amazing and Idlewild were really good too. I only caught the end of Snow Patrol which is a bit annoying because I've become quite a big fan recently. Badly Drawn Boy was crap though.

    The best live set I've seen was Muse at Reading 2002. The best actual gig I've been to could well be Coldplay actually at Manchester MEN Arena last November. They were amazing!

    Probably when Nirvana played in Reading before Kurt died
    and Polyphonic Spree in Glastonbury.
