You can take a trip to one place that is significant to rock and roll. Where do you want to visit?

 

I'm thinking Abbey Road Studio is where I want to go. Or Liverpool.

Woodstock '69 - Jimi Hendrix, The Who, Jefferson Airplane, Grateful Dead, etc, etc, etc.....

Liverpool? Really? You'd have to be an absolute Beatles loon cos the city has bugger all else to offer. Hacienda circa '89 or Woodstock '94 :D

are we talking about within any time?

 

if so that's a hard one, Lollapalooza 91, mainly for legendary NIN show (jealous of certain psoter in this topic who was there!)

 

or when Johnny Cash played Folsom Prison

 

or Reading 92 (Nirvana)

 

or Rage Against the Machine outside the 2000 Democrat National Convention

 

or Atari Teenage Riot May Day riots in Berlin in 1999.

Several spring to mind...

 

100 Club Punk all dayer with Pistols, Damned, Clash, Banshees etc

 

Hendrix at Isle Of Wight

 

Cash at Folsom or San Quentin too

 

Live Aid

 

Dylan going electric

 

Kate Bush at Hammersmith Odeon

 

Altamont

 

I'm sure there's loads more

My dad was at that event. He tends to bring it up when he wants to make me jealous, or appear cooler than he is.

Really? Or is he just one of the thousands who like to claim they were there?

STONE HENGE!

 

Just kidding ;) I'd have loved to seen the original Guns N' Roses when they were still playing tiny, intimate venues. I've seen a GNR tribute act in a tiny bar and let me tell you, that is where hard-rock music like that kicks the most ass. There's something perfect about it in that sort of setting.

I agree with "Severin" about Live Aid. Probably the biggest musical event of all time, and to actually be there would have been a memory of a lifetime! (The Wembley show of course!)

Probably back in 91 or 92 when Nirvana played this little old pub on Broadway, Sydney, Aus. my mum was there but I was only 4

A friend of mine went. He doesn't like most of the acts that played and still says it was brilliant

It must have just been the gig of a lifetime, even if you didn't like all the music, just the atmosphere!
