John Peel
Not often you shead a tear for a strangers passing.
I never listened to his show but watched all his Glastonbury coverage.
I loved his passion for new and diverse music.
And man, could he moan (see a re-run of grumpy old men on BBC2)
but that was half his charm.
The day after he died on Radio 1 was hard listening. All they played was bands he'd found and the music he loved mixed with loads of clips of bands talking about him.
Very sad

John Peel was such a gent and honest enthusiast for his music

Can't go without mentioning 'Fluff' Freeman and the late Tommy Vance as  well

The Jam - wearing my trusty parker !
Tina Turner - Goldeneye tour - definately the best. - a true show
Barclay James Harvest
Steve Hillage - got thrown over the seats by a bouncer in the rush to the front. disapointing concert all synth and tape bakup
Meatloaf
The Vapours - booed them off stage when they supported the Jam, shortly after had a number one hit - turning japanese.
I can't remember the rest.

Never did get to see Pink Floyd or Genesis

We miss John Peel, used to play him every night to the boys when they were babies, it was the only way Cam would sleep for years.

Best Gig - has to be the Chameleons, HWMBO introduced me to them when I was 17 and they'd recently split up .

They reformed and we got to see them twice Late 2001 (IIRC)
BRILLIANT!!!! small venue Flower Pot In Derby, Vic In Nottingham

The one at the Flower Pot Has to be the best Gig ever! Old Favourites, New tracks fantastic atamosphere (everyone phoning up Babysitters :wink: ) Seeing your fav' band for 15 years, 6 feet in front of you pure magic!

 Worst,
  well I fell asleep at a Loop Gig once  :lol: , Wedding Present at Cov Poly was forgetable - it just did'nt work

Ride was scary,  good music but far too many people packed in, most of them nutters in the mosh pit, people got hurt. Not fun.

Keep saying one year I'll get to Glastonbury, HWMBO went loads in his youth. We want to take the boys.

Not been to many  :(  infact most concerts I have been too have been classical.

Went and saw the Levellers for my 21st which was fantastic, lots of bouncing and jumping at that one.

Oh and Jules Holland at Ludlow, what an evening and what a great performer :D

Cor, it would have to be

Suzzane Vega - Warwick Arts Centre (2005)
Suicidal Tendancies - NEC (1990 ish)
Peter Gabriel - (NEC -Still Growing Up, 2004)
Anthrax / Public Enemy (Manchester Apollo 1991ish)
Nine Inch Nails - Wolverhampton (1995ish)

Five spectacular performances for so many different reasons.

Cheers

Yeah the wannabes were annoying with that stupid banner but she (Avril) was good live.

I've been to see a few people in concerts mostly old fogies or completely boring ones though. Anyway here we go:

Simply Red (yawn)
Daniel Bedingfield (guilty pleasure!)
Busted (Er hello what was I thinking  ](*,)  :oops: )
Jools Holland (is a great performer, but not my cup of tea)
Bootleg Beatles(can't remember was it good or bad?!?! nothing to do with alcohol by the way i was just young)
Rolling Stones ( That was totally awesome! I think they had oxygen masks back stage! hehe)
Avril Lavigne (singing was out of tune, little anklebiters, sorry wannabes sorry children, were annoying, but was a great performance)

AND......................Can't wait to see...


.....!!!!!!!FOO FIGHTERS!!!!!!!! on tour in december earls court here i come ... hey i wonder if mum will let me crowd surf!! mwah ha ha  :twisted:  :P
