Ooooh, that reminds me of seeing the Police on the Ghost in the Machine tour. I realized that in their prime, Sting, Andy & Stu were the heir apparents to Cream in their prime. I also realized, looking at the backdrop, that the digital readout on the Ghost album was actually their faces in LED form
The "long haired freaky people" always followed the Dead around to all their shows because they couldn't remember being at the last show

been to so many, it`s hard to pick just one....I love so many for different reasons....
most recently, I`d have to go with Billy Joel at Shea Stadium in NYC.
He was onstage for over 3 hours and had 5 special guests come out to perform throughout the evening: Tony Bennett, Garth Brooks, Steven Tyler (Aerosmith), Roger Daltrey (The Who) and Sir Paul McCartney.
To see all those guys in 1 night was stupendous. I have a lot of video clips if anyone`s interested.

Ooooh, I forgot about Floyd. I saw them in ......... 1987??? at the UNI-Dome in Cedar Falls, Iowa. Great show!
Not quite the Olympic Stadium in Berlin but hey, I'm sure it was the same essential effect.......... comfortably numb.

I think anybody that remembers being at a Pink Floyd concert didn't get the full benefits of the event.

Saw Jimmy Barnes last night, my ears are still ringing today.
Scotz, check out a band called "Cold Chisel", a track called "Khe Sanh" or "Flame Trees".
The man has cult status.

Last thing I remember was seeing a huge pig floating through the smoke in the dome above the crowd. Porky looked very happy.

Rumor has it that the pig is real, & not just a mass hallucination...
At least that's what I've heard...

Speaking of Pink Floyd...
I recently saw the Aussie Floyd show. Seeing these guys in concert is one step away from the real deal.  They performed The Wall in it's entirety! It was so freaking cool! Then they came back out and did a few other Floyd classics from other albums. If you are a Floyd fan and get a chance to see Aussie Floyd, do it!

Skid Row (minus Sebastian Bach, unfortunately)/Ted Nugent (before he got kicked off of the tour)/Kiss - 2000 Cedar Rapids, IA.
This concert will always stick in my memory, but not because of the bands (although they were fantastic). I'll always remember this concert because it was the first my daughter ever went to, though it wasn't her choice, she was still being carried in the womb of her mother. Sometime during the concert, my daughter dropped towrds the birth canal, she was born a couple of weeks later. That's how I know my daughter liked the same music as me :lmao:
