    Well my gig of a lifetime hasn't happened but hopefully(not likely) will. That would be Pink Floyd.

    A zeppelin reunion would come second, but only because bonzo isn't here with us anymore.. But Robert Plants gig a couple of months ago was definitely one of the most surreal moments of my life.

    My gig of a lifetime would have been Metallica. Partly cos it was my first ever time at one and i didnt know much bout rock music, so they blew me away with what they could do. Then again QOTSA at Oxegen and VR in the Point were very good.

    I started a thread like this a month ago.....anyway...as I said, Metallica 1999, Point Depot, Dublin.

    Im with LundiMardi on Floyd.

    Best concert I was at was U2 pop mart tour in 1998 in Lansdown Road? It was a great show.
    Also the Australian Pink Floyd in the Olympia before the smoking ban!

    Rockee- I was at that Metallica gig in th Point. Was excellent

    Id probably say Sigur Rós in the Olympia just for making me reconsider what I thought a live act was all about. Though both Broken Social Scene (TBMC) and Mew (nottingham rescue room) are kinda challenging it for the top spot and both within the last week. Mew may have grabbed it if it wasnt for the venue being ****e.

    I'd have to say Green Day.

    would have loved to have been at that gig that pantera and other bands played in russia back in the early 90's... a million people...just crazy

    David Bowie in the Point... Bob Dylan in Kilkenny... Sigur Ros in the Music Centre and in the Temple Theatre... Juniper midnight at the Olympia in 1997 (1996?)... Metallica in the Point 1996 and in 1999 (Eric Bell...)... Deftones in the SFX 1997... Therapy? at Oxegen...

    All gigs that left strong memorys with me.

    Ozzfest 2002 in kildare, the only time id wager that ozzfest will ever be in ireland and it was my first concert to boot, i was only in first year and i messed up all ma summer tests cause of it but iit was well worth being thrown into the knacker class for 2 years


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 461 ✭✭BOHS


    Metallica in the Point
    Page & Plant in the Point
    Gary Jules in Whelans


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,519 ✭✭✭Oral Slang


    Probably would be Donington 1995. Although I'm not a huge Metallica fan now, as it was my first festival abroad, it was amazing..

    Other than that, my favourite gig has to have been Queensryche in London in 2000!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,968 ✭✭✭jcoote


    floyd reunion as lundi said would be the only thing that would really interest me as far as 'oh my god i can't miss that'.. i would've liked to see queen live aswell...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 752 ✭✭✭Spicy Lauren


    Tough to decide which one was best... between Massive Attack @ Point August 2003 and Nick Cave @ Vicar Steet Oct. 2003
