A - Z of music that you've seen live

[Aldo1988]

Seen the Stone Roses twice and was front stage security for Bjorn Again for a gig. Some bird asked if I could get her back stage to which I replied 'You do know that they ain't the real ABBA'.

The original band I was in(drummer) played at a local festival in August '91 on the same bill as wait for it............Hawkwind and Captain Sensible!.........Saw The Smiths in Newport in 1986 when Morrissey got pulled off the stage by over exuberant fans after about half a dozen songs....Banged his head apparently and wouldn't go back on,it was bedlam there for a while after!...Others I've seen include Heart,Then Jericho,Simple Minds with Texas supporting and U2 ZooTV in 1993...

A rigger I worked with wanted to drop 2kgs or red meat on Morrissey's head as he had banned the sale of meat at the venue

On performance I'd go for ratm, rolling stones and acdc just ahead of flaming lips and james brown. Took hours to settle down after rage against the machine.
Prince the best lookers and best dressed by far and madness the best crowd/laugh.

Sadly missed Neil Young as a man we worked with had a heart defect and died suddenly, heads were elsewhere naturally. David Bowie another, 3 tickets became 2 and I lost out.

Have a ticket for PJ at hyde park but it's been cancelled likewise GnR at spurs. Hoping both will be rescheduled for next year.
Was planning to go to Aerosmith at Manchester in July and grab a ticket outside for a hundred quid. They were 140 quid on general sale!!! I too have heard they're shit live but they have been on my bucket list for a long long time so was going to go and see for myself.
