If you could go back in time...

[Assphace]

and listen to any liv show, what would you choose?

Personally, I'd go back to Metallica's S&M show, with woodstock a very close secod.


sorry if this thread has been posted before, i'm rather drunk

 

[theotherside]

I would go back to the late 1960's, and watch King Crimson open up for the Rolling Stones, when they played 21st century to a crowd who thought the Stones were good musicians The amazing show they played put them on the map instantly.

I would go back to 1992, and see the Reading Festival Nirvana Concert in person......front and center

[theotherside]

^^^Nice list!! I would love to see that rooftop concert of the Beatles playing "Don't let me Down".

 

[RareForm]

^fucking right man. that's definitely at the top of my momentarily imaginary list.

 

[oneswtwld]

Robert Johnson

 

[ninjadanslarbretabar]

[Bardeaux]

Too hard to choose a single performance. But I'd like to see:

Woodstock. srsly
Monterey 67
The original dark side of the moon tour
Led Zeppelin- any time anywhere
The Doors - again, anywhere at any time
And ofcourse the Beatles show atop the apple building

 

[SmilingEyes]

Woodstock is for damn sure.

Frank Sinatra

Louis Armstrong

Sublime (Im to young to have been able to see Bradley Knowles preform. And quite frankly I don't feel like Rome is a good substitute...)

Nirvana, again, too young.

Pink Floyd

Led Zeppelin

The beetles

And there's tons more.

 

[Asclepius]

Wow..too many to choose

Theolonious Monk Monterey Jazz Fest 1964
Jimmy Hendrix, Janice et al Woodstock
Doors @ Whiskey A GO-GO
Alice in Chains, while L Stayley was the front man
Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention, Monterereax 1971(just to say ''I was there that day 'Smoke on the water was born'')
Some Chopin, Tchaicovsky, Debussy, Bach performance
Jaqueline du Pre at Royal Festival Hall, Lond 1962
Billy Holiday, c 1940's @ Cafe Society

 

[Lady Codone]

1. Woodstock

2. Bob Marley's One Love Peace concert

3. Nirvana (any)

 

[Fishface]

Band of Gypsys - Fillmore East 31st December 1969

I would go back to the late 1960's, and watch King Crimson open up for the Rolling Stones, when they played 21st century to a crowd who thought the Stones were good musicians The amazing show they played put them on the map instantly.

You talking Hyde Park?

 

[China Rider]

Grateful Dead and Jerry Garcia Band configurations before it turned into a complete freak fest - 1973-1979

 

[Fishface]

 

[Bardeaux]

That one's added to my list for sure

 

[four string]

any show with pantera and sepultura on the same bill. classic stuff right there

 

[paridiso]

pink floyd with a functional syd barrett

 

[Droppersneck]

everything already said and midnight special-leadbelly live. Personally looking back in time and seeing all the great shit I will never know intimately depresses the shit out of me

Grateful Dead- anytime during the 70s if I had to choose I would say Winterland December 31 1978.
Nirvana-Reading Festival 1993
Sublime- anytime anyplace
Jimi Hendrix-Monterey pop festival
