fullbore Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 I worked on the Sex pistols last gig at Ivanhoes in Huddersfield, worked with many many bands over the years, one of the best gigs was one I paid to see, the Levellers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RhiannonBW Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 as an ex roadie ,,had to get a proper job cannot be happy all your life.. queen --ga ga tour ,maine rd manchester--- funniest beasty boys -liverpool ,that was a riot Beastie Boys? Was that the same tour where the promoter took everyone's water pistols off them at the Birmingham gig following a complaint from some little old lady that there were people walking around with machine guns? I've done a bit of on tour catering so have seen quite a few bands. (Did some work with the Welsh boys, High Life, many, many years ago, and a little bit of work for Sugar & Spice more recently) Best gigs I've seen - someone else has mentioned OMD, who probably a bit surprisingly, are one of the most amazing live bands ever. Muse were pretty good, as were Good Charlotte (who win the award for nicest band ever), and I caught a little bit of the Progidy the other day and they were pretty good too. Prince is also amazing live. Rhiannon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yanibaby Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 Saw The Specials a couple of years ago at The Welly Club in Hull... Excellent. Really intimate, great atmosphere... much better than some of the big name bands stadium gigs I've been to. There's a local Ska/Punk band called Counting Coins who have recently started playing around town, only formed a couple of months ago, been to a couple of their gigs recently and can say that they're definitely the best local band by far. and I saw erm... Girls Aloud last month in Sheffield - quality entertainment!! I was about a meter away from the stage, and screaming like a loser. I love them though.

MerseaDavid Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 Iron Maiden are the best band I have seen. It was on their Dance of Death tour in london. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hendersons Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 without a shadow of a doubt the best act i've seen live is the prodigy put on a really good show and i got spat on by keith flint nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GW80 Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 (edited) Have seen quite a few bands over the years, the best i've watched personally is "the Killers", would have loved to have seen Rory Gallagher live, but unfortunetley that will never happen!!! Also should add that "The Hot house Flowers" were good too, and Paul Weller was great both times i went to see him, my biggest disappointment was Ian Brown from the stone roses, he sounded live like he was gargelling broken bottles!!!

Axe Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 Iron Maiden live at Donnington Monsters of Rock was the stage show of all stage shows for me. Though I would have loved to have seen a Pink Floyd gig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjimmer Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 I think the only live show I've ever been to, was at Clutton(south of Bristol) in about 1967. Screaming Lord Sutch. Got soaked! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breastman Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 The Prodigy without a doubt, the amount of energy they give off on stage could power a small city for a year! Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
