    This. Everyday this.

    If you're not familiar with STP and the late Scott Weiland do yourself a favour.

    I said it before and I'll say it again, Iggy Pop & the Stooges at Electric Picnic 2007. There is no clips from this gig but the next best thing is their performance from Glastonbury from the same year.

    Please give me your opinion on something.
    However if your opinion is not similar to mine then don’t bother posting as I just want my own opinion reaffirmed

    MTV had a concert with David Bowie back in the mid to late 90’s, he done a great version of All the Young Dudes.



    He wrote that song himself....but it was a hit for "Mott The Hoople in 1972

    Great song...great performance by Bowie

    =(:-) Me? I know who I am. I'm a dude playing a dude disguised as another dude (-:)=

    I once saw an all-female Japanese band called The ZZZs in concert who were excellent. Sadly, they seem to have disappeared.

    For everybody interested in music, check out this thing I'm running. I need contributions to make it happen.

    My first answer would have been the Prince half time Superbowl show as well, but that's been said. So...

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2K7TU1Hh_3U


    I found Pink Floyd Live8 set (above) in 2005 to be really moving at the time and on any rewatch. Whenever those Gilmour solo's reach their peak, I get just a bit choked up. It just seems such a waste that these guys have spent decades not talking, when that band was clearly meant to be!

    Also, given the limited time to agree a reunion set and practice it..it's a really good performance. See Led Zep in Live Aid as an example of how this can go badly wrong.

    Was only watching some of that again last night. I always hated Money but they do some job on Comfortably Numb at the end. Was class seeing them together at the time and sounding so good.

    Not a huge fan of "Money" either, but I can see the logic of playing it at that show. And it is redeemed by the solo. :)

    I also agree with Gilmour refusing to play "Another Brick in the Wall" at Live8. Wrong message for sure!

    This Rage Against The Machine gig looks like it was an amazing experience judging by this song.





    And this song in Vicar Street from a great funk band called Vulfpeck. The crowd make it and I would have loved to have been there.

    That’s such a brilliant song, probably their best. Great version of it.

    Springsteen’s live at the Hammersmith Odean ‘75 is a cracking performance.

    It might have been posted already but Rage Against the Machine at Woodstock 99.
    Just to put it in context. 100*+ heat. No shade and the only water was from tents/shops for rip off £££ . Things got heated. Then they put on RaTM ? Singing fcuk you I won't do what you tell me , with fire on the stage ? It was only going to end in a riot.
    Somewhere there might be video of a skinny Irish lad swinging like Tarzan over a fire .
    from a speaker pole.
    Edit. It might not have been a musical masterclass but on sheer power of effect it on on the crowd it was definitely memorable. If that makes sense

    Also, I hope that at some stage in the future Oasis live at Knebworth will be released on DVD/download.

    Have heard the Knebworth gig was something else but so is their 2 sold out dates at Maine Road in 1994. Fantastic concert as they were in the height of their pomp at that point and playing 2 nights in their hometown and the stadium of the football team they support. Love everything about that gig even the flecky tracksuits Liam and Noel are wearing. Crowd goes wild for the Swamp Song opener and stays that way for the entire gig

    long train runnin live in 1981 from the doobie brothers- off the top of my head, two (possibly three) different sets of drums/percussion, extra solos on two instruments and at least two band members performing different roles than they did on the original recording

    and it is absolutely filthy good
