We have been to many over the years and I used to be a concert buff, in my younger days.
I have seen queen at Wembley in 1986, and Led Zeppelin twice. But one of the best we have been too is the best disco in town at Wembley about 4 years ago. There was Chic and Shalamar to name a couple. We danced for hours..it was brill.
So what groups or concerts have you been to and really enjoyed?

Pink Floyd in 1985 at the old Manchester City ground.
The best bit was that it cost nowt as I was working on the duty ambulance. The St Johns did all the work though and only brought them to us if the patient needed transporting to hospital. No one did so I got to see the whole show. Feckin' superb it was too!

Oscar Peterson, in Manchester during July 2005. Not only was he a legend, as a jazz pianist too, I was so lucky to be seated in the front row right next to his piano! Amazing!
Wow. Sounds ace. Sex God

I have two:
It was 1998, it was Mardi Gras in New Orleans and I was lucky enough to get tickets for George Clinton & The P-Funk All Stars.
They are a 20-member band who, at the time, comprised former members of both Parliament and Funkadelic and whose performance encompasses jazz, blues, rap with a heavy dose of funk, R&B and rock. What can I say but AMAAAAAAAZZZZZING! A master class in funk. Went on to the wee small hours and I loved it, loved it, loved it!
Then last summer's 21 Nights in London tour by Prince. August 11th 2007 - without a doubt the best of all the Prince concerts I have seen. Purple Rain, Little Red Corvette, The Beautiful Ones, Controversy, Shhh, Sometimes it Snows in April... gorgeous song after gorgeous song. I danced, I sang, I was humbled by the man's talent.

Never been to one - are they good? I always assumed they would just be really loud.
I enjoy the occasional theatre visit though. When I'm feeling rich (since they shut the local one).

Oooooh, this is a difficult one. I have been to about a zillion gigs and have enjoyed the vast majority of them becasue I always make sure I have fun if I go out...
Should I say Gary Numan, as he's my hero and I have seen him about a million times and it is still never enough? This last tour was great, and the gig on his birthday was amazing.
Should I say Marc Almond, as he's my other hero, and I have seen him about a hundred times and twice out of those he has blown me away..?
Or, Napalm Death, because they went, 'WHOAAARRGGGGAAHHHHH' for 30 minutes and people's heads exploded?
Or Motorhead, because Lemmy rules?
Or Motley Crue, because they had nudey dwarves and flamethrowers?
Or Gogol Bordello, because I could not stop moshing for the entire gig and I got beaten up by a ton of people (in the moshpit - I came out bleeding, I think... accidental injuries I am sure, but hey...) and it was amazing - as good as The Pogues for exactly the same reasons, if fact...
But really, my favourite ever gig I attended was The Cramps, on the Stay Sick tour. Because they just ruled, and seeing them that once was enough.
