i'd have to agree with barry bethel here; nirvana were pretty dire live. saw them at newcastle mayfair, which wasn't tiny but was a reasonably small venue, and they played for 15 minutes, then spent 20 minutes trashing all their equipment. bunch of knobheads.
there's a few bands i'd have liked to have seen, but it's no big deal because there's plenty others around...

Saw Floyd at Earls Court in 94, don't think anything can beat that performance (even though Dave Gilmour can't sing live for toffee)
Would liked to have seen Led Zep & Cream. Oh & any big band with Buddy Rich on drumsPosted 2 years ago # -
Saw Pink Floyd at the Live Aid thing in Hyde Park a few years ago. And whilst at the time your brain's going; "OMG OMG OMG that's Floyd" and they're never going to do this again...The music left me cold, It was good, but too...like a record, too polished? dunno, It just wasn't a great live performance.

The Beatles when they played a local pub in Tenbury Wells!
Mott the Hoople when they played in the ballroom of a local hotel
Queen, when they played Worcester and the many top acts that used to come to the Winter Gardens in Malvern!Posted 2 years ago # -
Saw the Macc Lads in Widnes many years ago, we were all stage diving until i found a small gap in the crowd. Concussion and temporary deafness for the next few days were to follow. Back to the point - Elvis and The Cramps for me.
