danswift Posted April 19, 2022 Author Share Posted April 19, 2022 Yeah remembering is hard ...I've been to so many shows over the last 3 decades and seen loads of different genres of music. I thought I'd actually be able to complete the full list because of that tbh but evidently not ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfsop Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 Have you seen Public Enemy? Terminator X's last name is "X", right? And I'm sure that you're hiding your attendance to several Suzi Quatro concerts from us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'm sure that you're hiding your attendance to several Suzi Quatro concerts from us. No,I've never seen Public Enemy live unfortunately...plus Terminator X wouldn't really count anyway as he'd still be part of the band and not a solo performance. Suzi Q ? Hehehe...I had a huge crush on her when I was a kid as I've mentioned on here before but never saw her in concert. That crush didn't last..I left her and moved on lol but 'Can The Can' still kicks some serious ass though!... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please tell me these 3 below were all on the same bill though hehe...:-) Nine Inch Nails, Neil Diamond, DJ Nu-Mark Bo Diddley was amazing. Great venue too. One of my favorite shows for sure. IDK how old he was but he was spry chicken. Felt like I got the full experience. James Brown was surprisingly good form too when I saw him. It was pretty surreal because the show was at the rodeo. Wifey bought tix for my birthday. We are sitting there watching calf roping then they clear the ring and a tractor comes out hauling a stage. Stage unfolds itself. Then Cadillac convertibles start driving out with the band members playing in the back. Was pretty awesome. On the flip was Bob Dylan... that was early 90s ...he looked and sounded half dead. LOL no, not on the same ticket but one of the times I saw NIN they were OPENING for David Bowie. This was peak NIN era in the mid 90s. Lineup shoulda been reversed. Trent was trying to help Bowie reinvent himself and he did this horrible industrial set. Maybe played one hit song. Trent did some songs with him. It was pretty horrible. I stayed but a lot of people left. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cutdisco Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 Kraftwerk i saw on tribal gathering in 97, just amazing and when i remember correctly with huge visuals Lee perry a few times, sometimes disappointing, sometimes really good....like funkadelic, sometimes it was fire and the other times were just regular performances Also the X i can add, X-cutioners, saw them on Lowlands in 98 or 97, along Portishead where dj andy smith was warming up on the turntables prior to the show and Q would be for Quasar, a dutch house act but that was iin 93 or so 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cutdisco Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 Portishead was mesmerizing, 30 degrees celsius and a huge crowd. I remember Beth turning up to the stage and everyone went wild....that energy!!! She singing, totally volnurable but hypnotizing everyone in the end. I think one of the most memorable things i saw, they would play most songs from Dummy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
