Talk about the music events of the 70's, 80's and 90's. Did you go to Glastonbury or Live Aid? Have you seen Duran Duran in concert? Tell us all about it...

  1. Your first gig...

    For me it was Five Star, at the Bournemouth International Centre. 4 costume changes, and it was sponsored by Ultrabrite toothpaste so we all got a free tube :D I should point out that I'm not proud of this ;)

  7. Summer of 84 concert - Wembley Stadium

    Did anyone else go to this concert on June 30th 1984? The main artist was Elton John, but I only wanted to go to see my favourite Nik Kershaw! Also playing were Kool & The Gang and Wang Chung amongst others. This concert was so good.

  12. Embarrassing Gigs

    Ok, so we've had memorable gigs and so on, but what is the most embarrassing gig that you have ever been to that you will admit to (come on, we are all friends here!). Showing what a big eejit I am, and of course, that I'm game for a laugh, I'll go.... New Kids On The Block, Wembley, in about...

    Ive been to quite a few concerts but the best ever has got to be the Who. We seen them at a festival near liverpool a couple of years ago after years of wanting to see them.

  14. Poll Poll: Anyone off to see Wacko Jacko at the o2?

    I went to see Michael Jackson twice. First time was the Dangerous Tour, I was "dangerously" near the front at Wembley and nearly got flattened when he popped out of the stage at the beginning. Brilliant gig though. The second time was the History Tour, was abit further back this time so managed...

  15. Thumbs up Henley Rewind Festival August 21-23, 2009

    Hiya, Just wondering if anyone else is venturing to this festival? I was speaking to the promoter of this when I went to the Greatest 80s Party at Blickling Hall in July and she said ticket sales are going remarkably well and they're expecting about 30,000 people over the weekend. :cool: ...

  17. Quadrophenia the Rock Opera

    I saw Quadrophenia, the musical of the classic 70's WHO LP and film recently and it was fantastic. Very true to the LP rather than the film. All the actors are mainly unknowns but after this show has finished then most should go on to other things. If you are a fan of THE WHO or loved the film or...

  19. Here and Now 2009 - Newcastle Arena 21/5/09

    Just back from Here and Now gig tonight. Started with Hazel O'Connor - really just there to make up the numbers. From what I remember she was a moody punky sort of singer, but she looked her age tonight with no stage presence. Couple of decent songs though. She sang Will You and Eighth Day...
