Dr Kenneth Noisewater 0 Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 I was at Maine Road for Oasis in '96 but unfortunately too shit-faced to remember most of it. Terrorvision always put on an enjoyable show, had my first crowd surf when they were at Middlesbrough town hall. I remember T-Keith on stage with GreenDay too. Also enjoyed Coldplay (and Idlewild supporting them) at the arena a couple of years back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toonraider 0 Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 (edited) Metallica at the NEC on the snake tour. Actually was lucky enough to get moved from our seats and invited into the snake pit...which was practically on the stage.

Renton 17744 Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 i lost interest after the first oasis album although the second one did have one or two decent tunes, they're just too samey. look at what damon alburn is doing now compared to the gallaghers. he's producing some real quality diverse music while oasis are still knocking out the same old shite. It might be diverse but to be honest it is mostly still shite in a mockney accent. one or two decent songs in a career from alburn. Saw him as well at Rollercoaster tour with My Bloody Valentine and Dinosaur Jr Pretty good too. I went to the Rollercoaster tour at Manchester Apollo I think. Can't remember too much about it now mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lazarus 0 Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 Been to few good gigs in my time Wildhearts at the riverside Slayer at the city hall Metallica at the ice rink guns n roses at gateshead You sir, are a legend! My best ever was Anthrax at the Glasgow Garage, 1995. The place was seriously fucking jumping. John Bush climbed a stack of amps and jumped off into the crowd and Scott Ian had a massive rant about how the band didn't get asked to contribute 'I am the law' to the soundtrack of the Judge Dredd(Stallone turkey0 that was just coming out. What a night - Newcy Broon, powder and metal..... Not really - a legend would have seen guns n roses at the city hall in 1987 but i missed it.

Maximo Park - Newcastle Radiohead - Newcastle Arena Foo Fighters - Leeds I was at those. Foo fighters were great when they refused to stop playing. I never liked Maximo Park though.

Happy Face 29 Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 My favourite gigs were.... Brian May - Whitley Bay Ice Rink - 1993 - First Gig I went to, reet at the front. Never seen nowt like it before jumping all over, thought I'd die. He fucked up the solo on Bohemian Rhapsody when the fireworks went off. Kelly Preston was lush. Bob Dylan - Newcastle Arena - 2000 - About 2 minutes into every song you realise which one it is and you're astounded at how fresh he keeps every track. First time I saw him and I've never enjoyed him more. Run DMC - Leeds - 2000 - goddamn that DJ made my day. Public Enemy - University of Northumbria - 2003 - Childhood heroes, first time I saw them live. Loved every second. Coming back on Sunday. I can't wait. Beastie Boys - SECC Glasgae - 2004 - Fantastic weekend all round, loads of us went up, great gig, down the front, we were the only ones singing along to Paul Revere while everyone else waited for Intergalactic. Just got the DVD of this tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
