So guys whats the best gig you have been to then ?.

Mine was Steve Aoki in the Cork Oprea house of all places to do a 3 hour DJ set. It was extramly hot sweety, Drunk and just playing fun.

The 2nd best was good Charlotte over in Kentish Town Forum where the VIP ticket holders about 20 of us got 5 songs played for us before the main gig well worth the money.

Steve Aoki at Cork OH, when was that?

Mine would be Red Hot Chilli Peppers at Slane, great weather, Feeder, PJ Harvey, QoTSA, Foos, and RHCP. PJ was a bit of a let down but the day took off with Feeder and never looked back.

Also Calvin Harris in Vegas, DJ set, his first Saturday night in Hakkasan. Made better as we struck a deal to get in 10 minutes before he came on (2:20am) and then accidently walked into the VIP area and were allowed stay there as we'd hit the bar heavily before getting spotted without tags.

Was at that slane aswell, definitely my no 1. Brilliant concert

The Eagles a couple of years ago in the point/O2/3/4.5 or whatever the fug they call it these days.
R.I.P Glenn Frey.

Ozzy in McGonagles. Right at stage with Aimee throwing buckets of water on us.

In more recent times RATM at the O2 was epic!

Leonard Cohen in Dublin...breathtaking and such a humble man, he really seemed truly grateful for the warm reception he received.

Not sure it was the best gig I've been to, but his july 2009 gig in the point was superb. The musicianship is excellent. Same gig as his London O2 dvd but I think that was 2008.

Can give honourable mentions to so many but a few great gigs in recent years:
2nd night of U2 I&E in the point nov 2015
Tom Petty at the point june 2012
Prince malahide 2011
Springsteen Seegar sessions nov 2006 at the original point.
Jean michel jarre at the point october 2016

Basically a common theme is a lot of great gigs especially in the new point.

take everything

Beach house. Vicar Street. 2015.

That was a great show, they kept taking the p1ss out of the corporate section if I remember right.

Been to 100s.

I guess Kate Bush in London was pretty immense, and the fact she hadn't played in 35 years and probably won't again puts it into the rare pleasure.

U2 Pop Mart in Landsdowne was spectacular.

Radiohead in a tent in Punchestown around the release of Kid A was pretty damn good too.

Yeah i'd have to agree Rammstein are definitely top of the pile. That was 5 years ago now.

The only other gig that I would have any where near it would be Daft Punk at oxegen 2007. Never seen anything like it.

I saw Bon Jovi in Slane a few years back. What an amazing venue.

Gizmo55

Radiohead in the Olympia in '96. Fuc*ing amazing.

I can't pick one, here are a couple:

Dream Theater, The Marquee (London), 1993. This was the night they recorded Live at the Marquee. I could tell they were going to be big. :cool:
Steven Wilson, Queen's Hall (Edinburgh), 2015.
James, Olympia Theatre, 1999 (I think). Singer Tim Booth was literally climbing the walls, all the way up to the balcony. :eek:
