    1. Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - Max Schmelling Halle, Berlin, 22 October 2017. Quite possibly the greatest gig I have ever been to in my life.
    2. Nothing else compares with the above.

    In date order, rather than what was the absolute best, the top 4 were


    Elbow
    Eventim Apollo London
    Sun 5 Mar

    Eddie Vedder
    Eventim Apollo London
    Tue 6 Jun

    The Stone Roses
    The SSE Arena, Belfast,
    Tue 13 Jun

    The War on Drugs
    Alexandra Palace, London,
    Tue 14 Nov

    Picking a 5th is tricky, so honorable mentions for the slow readers club, Jack Savoretti, Ryan Adams & 2 Door Cinema Club

    Most disappointing gig, Paul Weller
