If you could travel back in time to see a show from any band, who would you see? I'd see a Genesis show from their 1972 Foxtrot tour, a Yes show from their 1972 CTTE tour, or a Rush show from their 1978 Hemispheres tour.
Strangers passing in the street by chance two separate glances meet and I am you and what I see is me. And do I take you by the hand and lead you through the land and help me understand the best I can

I'd see Rick Wakeman's The Myths and Legends... from 1975.  Yes, the famous "on ice" show.
Jethro Tull kicks ass!

But don't forget the Moody Blues :)

Right now I would travel back in time to the night of Saturday, 9th July 2005, just to repeat the experience of the best concert I ever saw live.

Me too, and the Yes' Relayer tour, with all the Roger Dean visuals, although I believe there is a video from that one (?, wasn't that Live at QPR?)

Plus Pink Floyd's The Wall Tour.

And Genesis' The Lamb tour, but The Musical Box made that one partially possible!

Easy, the Shadows and Light gigs Joni Mitchell did with Jaco Pastroius, Pat Metheny, Michael Brecker and Don Alias (and mustn't forget the Persuasions - anyone got their album "Sing Zappa"?).  The DVD (re)issued about 2 years ago, doesn't provide enough footage of the excellent jazz rock played by the all star musicians Mitchell invited along.

However, I conjured up in my mind a dream band in 1973 - and amazingly they came together in 1978, so I caught them at the Rainbow in London - McLaughlin  Bruce and Cobham - and I seem to remember David Sancious was there too!

Gong on May 14th 1977 in the Hippodrome in Paris. The whole gig was Gong with all kind ofs splinter groups. Daevid Allen did a solo gig, and so did Tim Blake and Didier Malherbe. A band named Strontium 90 played, consisting of Mike Howlett on bass, Andy Summers on lead guitar, Sting on rhythm guitar and Stewart Copeland on drums (yes, this is where "The Police" come from!) The Steve Hillage band played, supported by Monsieurs Moerlen and Howlett. The Shamal line-up of Gong (including Steve Hillage) played as well as the Gazeuse line-up. And finally the classic line-up of Gong had an overly long gig. Some of the musicians were on stage for over 7 hours! The concert started at noon and ended around 2 am. This concert is legendary!

I would like to see Jethro Tull in the Isle of Wight Festival in 1970!!

...But my dreams are for dreaming and best left that way-and my zero to your power of ten equals nothing at all...

or possibly Pink Floyd's Animals tour or the Wall tour.

Genesis in Italy in 1972, at the Rainbow Theatre in London on 20th
October 1973 and at least one of the Lamb shows. These are the
first shows that come to my mind, but i guess there will be more
coming soon...

Easy, just buy the DVD! And then you will wish you were not there but thank the cameras for being there

Jethro Tull - Nothing Is Easy: Live at the Isle of Wight 1970 DVD  album review and track listing JETHRO TULL - Nothing Is Easy: Live at the Isle of Wight 1970 (DVD)
Review (Permanent link) by Hugues Chantraine @ 4:29:47 AM EST, 7/13/2005
PROG REVIEWER

5 stars  —   An absolute must for Tull fans!!!!!

I cannot describe my feelings enough as I tried to open up the DVD with my trembling hands , then searching all over the room for that stoooopid remote control that was lying in front of my eyes and try to insert the disc into that damned (and Slow!!!!!!) machine and finally get my heroin fix of Jethro Tull! Not only had I rented a Ferrari to go to the store and come back quicker, but I never climbed the stairs so quick (even when Mrs Stevie Nicks was waiting naked in my bed ;-p ) only to climb all stages of extasy (not even spending the night with Mrs Nicks got me that worked up ;-D ) as soon as I got the first images in my head.

In this DVD , you will see:

- how the Isle Of Wight Festival was actually a fiasco

- Glen Cornick play bass guitar on My God (the Aqualung album was not yet out)

- the Tramp tearing and ripping apart his long tailcoat by stepping wildly on the tail

- Tony Iommi (of Black Sabbath fame ) play guitar on the Rolling Stone RNR Circus

- the Clive Bunker technique of tightening his drum skin while soloing

- hear and see Ian talking of his phallic flute

- hear how Tull became original by not being a guitar god

- Ian explain the one-legged stance and its over-use

- feel the extraodinary power of the early Tull

- how Ian anderson is probably the most outspoken and colourful/hilarious character around.

- the light (or the Enlightenment!!!!)

- how quick you orgasm without even thinking of Mrs Nicks

Actually , I melted this DVD, put the solution in a sirynge and injected it intravenously, took out the stolen Ferrari (did you actually think I would rent one?) and went back to the store to buy another copy.

Oh! That was not Stevie Nicks , but even if I do kiss and tell, you would not believe me anyway on the real ID of that lady!!!!! ;-)p)

I missed Genesis with Gabriel era, but I haver seen 3 different tours with Musical Box and have four different DVD about it. So I am calmed down.

I would've loved to see Comus , Gnidrolog , Circus, Out Of Focus & Audience in concert.

Except for the last group touring Germany , I doubt i'll ever see those.......

hardly a classic show in a classic era, but i'd like to
get back to november 5th 1987 when marillion
played wembley during their cluching at straws tour
– i was there and i must have had the WORST seat
in the house (saw mosley's head, trewavas' butt,
rothery's guitar neck, kelly's feet and fish only from
the side) – i'd like to take it all in once more from a
better vantage point. this will probably only work for
me if i can revert to being 18 for that night (you do the
maths) and i seriously doubt that...

if you want to encounter classic genesis, go see
THE MUSICAL BOX!!!
