o/t best band

[graeme]

saw muse last night and reckon they're probably the best band i've ever seen live, along with the pixies and nirvana. just wondered about my fellow blondeites' fave concerts. also, who would you like to see, living or dead. i'd go for jimi, janis joplin or miles davis

[I, Zimbra]

Easy Q for me, I'd hitch a lift back to 1984 and go see the 'Stop Making Sense' Tour.

Good call.

Elvis can get tae buggery, I wanna see Byrne in his big suit. 

[graeme]

ah, talking heads, definitely. if i can hitch a lift in your time machine i'd travel back to the early 80s and see The Police

hasn't he just done a musical with fatboy slim?

[I, Zimbra]

They're winding it up, I think - at least that's what Norman said when he was interviewed at the V Festival this month.

It's a musical about Imelda Marcos, of all things. But I don't care what it's about - it's Byrne and Fatboy Slim, if it's not fantastic then something is seriously wrong.

(Mind you, they probably said something similar when Paul Simon did 'The Capeman'...  )

[thetank]

Won't get me wet unless he's shamelessly included Life During Wartime somewhere 

I'll totally give it a lookie when they're ready though.

[graeme]

so we've got talking heads on the list. i'd also add johnny cash and thelonius monk

[Ironside]

Elvis.Madness or Sir Cliff

Pink floyd at Earls court, I saw the show on tv but would have loved to seen it live.

I saw muse at glasto 04 and the following year at v and they are truly amazing.

Oasis at Earls Court 1997

we had tickets for this but my friends vw camper van broke down on the way, we eventually got there and they had been on 10 minutes so we sold our tickets to some bloke for £220 and a spliff and went out in london on the proceeds. We also figured out a way to scam the AA into towing us back home for a fraction of the £400 it should have cost.

Radiohead at V this year with beck on before was the business.

But without doubt seeing Guns and Roses at wembley when i was 15 was a truly mindblowing experience for a bunch of kids our age.

[Claw75]

best live band for me are the Stereophonics.  Not too keen on their more recent stuff, but when the belt out the tracks from the first two albums they are spot on.

[bone1986]

The best i've seen live were Madness in Finsbury park 1991/2 and Oasis at Knebworth 1996/7. Oasis were great and the support bands were also awsome, Kula Shaker, The Charlatans, Manic Street Preachers , Cast and Chemical Brothers.
