Legendary concerts you were at...?

Ever been to a concert that became legendary - even if just amongst that artists fan base?

I have been to many hundreds of shows but cannot really claim that more than a small handful were legendary.

Certainly The Stone Roses at Spike Island in 1990 or Arthur Lee's Liverpool Academy Show in 1992.

Struggling to think of more..am sure there are much better examples from the CL musos.

  • Another Oasis at Knebworth here.
  • David Bowie in Prague, 2004. I think it may have been his last concert: he had to abandon it a few songs in due to chest pains.
  • Oasis last concert at the old Wembley stadium
  • Oasis supported by the Verve in 97 at Earls Court. Not legendary but I had a great night

    Reading festival 92. Nirvana, Mudhoney, L7 ( with tampon ) and Teenage Fanclub.

  • Cream at the Royal Albert Hall. The 2005 reunion, not the 1968 farewell gig but still historic
  • Talk Talk, Hammersmith Odeon, July 86.

    Released as a CD 15 years later to my surprise and delight
  • Jesus and Mary Chain, North London Poly (the riot gig)

    1989 Astoria, Nirvana third on the bill behind Mudhoney and Tad.

    Had to decide between a few more beers or a gig across the road and so stayed in the Intrepid Fox and missed a new band called Guns and Roses at the Marquee
