Stereophonics at Wembley a few years ago. Truly the nuts live.
Fleetwood Mac at Earls Court also a few years ago. Although the sound system at Earls Court seemed to be terrible unless it was just where we were sitting.
Normally go to music festivals if I can get my hands on the tickets. Better value for money and love the atmosphere.
Madonna last night (I was working - took eight journalists). The whole thing was pretty awesome (no, am not really a fan)....somewhat tempered by someone deciding to shut Wembley Park tube early, leaving thousands of people, including me, stranded in north London with no hope of getting home...
Finally walked in the door at 3.15 this morning after spending an hour stuck in a cab at Blackwall Tunnel at 2pm (wtf?)....was not happy when the alarm went off 3 hours later and am looking forward to a very early night tonight....
Have drawn the short straw in the office and have to go to Coldplay in December at O2 which I am really not looking forward to...not sure who else I am seeing before then... Best job I ever had was summer of 2003 when I was doing PR for first Glastonbury and then the V Festival...two awesome weekends (altho all a bit of a blur.)..went on the main stage at Glastonbury - absolutely awesome sight looking out....made me wish I was a rock star...(that and the drugs, drink and groupies).

Could say Glenn Tilbrook acoustic in the Charlton Con Club but that would be pushing it! Carter USM also, at Brixton last November - going to relive my youth big time and see Simple Minds at Wembley this November on their 30th (eek) anniversary tour.
Riscardo - you're right, I have....got a box at Wembley and another at the O2 these days...mind you the only time I go out is with work...I actually have no life of my own :-(

Tenacious D - Dec 06 (Hammersmith)
The Killers - Nov 06 (Brixton)
I love Bon Jovi - but refuse to go to Twickenham again after the debacle getting back from the Police concert last year.
Couldn't agree more. I went on the Sunday and it was a 'kin joke geting home.
Last concert was Starsailor at this years Le Mans 24 hour in June.

Managed to get on a train pretty quickly coming home, but it still took over two hours.
Before that it was CSN at the Albert Hall
I am going to see Maze featuring Frankie Beverley next week and Stevie in October
(I am not including seeing Jason Donovan at the Dartford festival!)
Next: Iron & Wine at The Calgary MacEwan hall

Blimey where do you work, sounds great job
Great night followed by a great session in a boozer in Mayfair.
^^Would love to see Maze feat Frankie Beverley (Bring your whistles. . . )
Very entertaining, although apparently not as good as some of they're gigs earlier in the year.
Bought Smiths DVD last weekend, The Complete Picture, only £6, bargain
Next- Dirty Pretty Things and Oasis in the same week :)
