High all,Badeye here, just wondering what are some of the biggest and best concerts you attended ?
My biggest was Woodstock 94' too young to attend the first one in 69' but was a great experience. I'd do it again tommorow at the drop of a hat.Love to go to the blues festivals they have here in Nova Scotia every year.Camping and Blues.OH YA.
Have a good one...Badeye.
I think my biggest music festival might be at donington for the monsters of rock in 1988 , before they reduced the crowd since 2 or 3 died when guns and roses came on, I tihnk they got crushed in the crowd.
I certainly got crushed. I had no feet on the ground at one point wit hmy arms by my side and moving forward. I could not do anything to top it. Very scary situation not being in control of your legs as you get crushed in among 100,000 people.
Saw Nirvana in 1991 (supported by teenage fanclub who were a class act) - saw G N R and REM at Slane Castle and this summer have tickets for the Stones!
Cool Stuff
Keep Em Commin.
...Badeye.
Oasis - Loch Lomond.
U2 - celtic park, The Piggery, Tattie Field, Manky Dome, The Zoo etc etc....Pick any name they all work!! <img src="images/smiley_icons/icon_lol.gif" border=0 alt="Laughing"> Hey, I'm a Glasgow Rangers man.....it's allowed!!
The Who - Glasgow.
The Stones - London.
Those are amongst the biggest I've attended, along with loads of Festivals and Raves.
Primal Scream, Stiff Little Fingers, Stereophonics, Prodigy and Happy Mondays are amongst the best I've seen (along with the ones mentioned above).
Mind you, in saying that I reckon EVERY gig I attend is fantastic. From the little guy with an acoustic to the Stadium Rockers with their entourage.....I just Love music. <img src="images/smiley_icons/icon_smile.gif" border=0 alt="Smile">

P.S. Joe Cocker is awesome in concert.

Garth Brooks Live at The Point Dublin.
Willie Nelson.
U2 at Celtic Park, Murrayfield, Hampden...all brilliant
James Brown at T in The Park
Primal Scream at the Barrowlands, what a venue!
Oasis, many times..Loch Lomond, Hampden, Murrayfield, SECC
Most recently saw David Gray here in my home town of Paisley playing an acoustic set in the town hall. Surreal venue but absolutely spellbinding performance.
....gotta love a live show!
lol...the biggest concert I have ever been to was a local music festival that my friends brother was in.
I wish i could have seen Nirvana live for the In Utero tour...but i wasn't alive.
The Killers are the best live act i have seen just mind blowing 
Yep the Killers would be good.
I think Pink Floyd in the Division Bell Tour was so way above all the others including Eagles, Van Halen, Stones, Aerosmith, and so many good ones. But again, Floyd is the benchmark.
Dick Dale played up close in a tiny club and that was awesome.
Oh yeah, Eric Johnson at the Birchmere in Arlington was way near the top.
The best for me was without a doubt the Bath festival in the UK in 1970. Canned Heat, Santana, Pink Floyd, Led Zep, Moody Blues, Byrds, Jefferson Airplane, The Flock, Colisseum, John Mayall with Peter Green. Unfortunately my Geezer Hood is showing as i can't remenber all of the groups, but suffice to say it was FANTASTIC.
I've never been to anything more than the local gospel sing or bluegrass festival. Then the best show i did attend was part of a lawn mower race/ concert. Some of the guys i work with played a few hours and were great thier group is called Deepstep if anyone has heard of them.
