I`ll throw this in for good measure.Night of the lasers+Hooky being baited most of the gig.They were on fire that night.

    Is weird lookin back at this list, as there’s such a massive gap between Prince in ’98, and Fleetwood Mac in 2009 - but I realise that for that 11 year period, I barely went to any gigs. Spent most weekends in a dark corner of a club listening to DJs. Was only in 2008, after Mrs Vin and I had got together that I realised you could actually do both…

    U2, Wembley Stadium, 1993
    Pearl Jam, Brixton Academy , 1993
    Prince, Wembley Arena, 1998
    Fleetwood Mac, Wembley Arena, 2009
    Elbow, V Festival, 2009
    The Bays, Concorde2, Brighton, 2009

    Reverend and the Makers, Shepherd’s Bush Empire, 2012
    Underworld, Royal Festival Hall, 2014

    strummer Not a fan of The Clash, but cap doffed nonetheless.

    Another forgotten one:

    Manic Street Preachers, Town & Country Club, 1992

        Jon Hopkins followed by Mute Math (different stages) at NH7 In Bangalore was a brilliant ‘live gig’ experience. Hopkins almost had me in tears.

        altJ put up a great show over here too. It rained and I fucking hate the rain, but it was perfect.

        Will get slated, but I thought Fatboy Slim was a brilliant overall experience. Massive stage with pyro, was tripping balls and the visuals were insane. Was it a seamless set with flawless mixing and intelligent programming, fuck no, but it was great party music.

        Simian Mobile Disco tore it up with the most nutty acid at NH7 in Pune. Kohra and BLOT warmed up for them. That was good fun too. The guys from Simian drove past us on our way back to the hotel.

        I’ve seen the vaccines in this intimate hipster bar, tight band but the sound was shit.

          rhouses Hopkins is excellent live. Will never forget the two ladies with light sticks at Brixton during an epic Everything Connected. Better than Obi Wan v Darth Maul.

              Jules72 Fuck me, that’s an even more middle-aged set of gigs than the ones I go to.

                alistair haha. Nice. The visuals were pretty tight when we saw him, unfortunately no Star Wars lightsaber battles though.

                  The last gig I went to was The Cinematic Orchestra.

                  Which was nice.

                  Have to say prince in Dublin was top of the range

                  Jules72 My mate are always going Despacio. Supposed to be excellent.

                      Dan yeah James Murphy has v good taste in music…was going to be at the Roundhouse too
