What show, living or dead, would you do anything to see?

Edited on Fri Dec-16-05 04:54 PM by Taverner

The Doors with Morrison?

The original Woodstock show in 69?

The Last Waltz show at Winterland?

Janes Addiction at the Roxy in 86?

For me it would be Led Zep in Knebworth in 76....

1. Mad Dogs and Englishment Tour

with Joe Cocker and Leon Russell, in their prime. Would have also loved to have been at any live show by the J. Geils Band during the "Blow Your Face Out" Tour.

13. 75 Floyd tour woulda been nice too

Where they broke out the tunes that later became "Animals" - with completely different lyrics and tempos...

14. Yes, that would be nice as well. I have many a bootleg of

pre-Animals Animals' songs such as "Running and Drooling". Can't remember the other names they used for the tunes.

Too bad bands don't do that any more, perform music that hasn't shown up on an album in their rough form.

15. Phish did it

And with as much touring they did, they had a chance to truly perfect their tunes before they ended up on an album...
