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 |

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! -------------  A shot of me as High Priestess of Gaia during our fall festival. Ceterum censeo principiis obsta |

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 http://www.progarchives.com/Progressive_rock_discography_CD.asp?cd_id=8053">  — 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) ------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

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....... ------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

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!!! |

Talk to Maani, then. He'll tell you all about it. He was there. It's a show I would have loved to have seen as well. But I really would have loved to have seen Rush during the Permanent Waves tour (they almost recorded it instead of Stage Left, too). -------------

I've seen a lot of posts about Floyd's Animals tour. I saw them on that
tour (Oakland 1977) but they were rather uninspired. You could tell
that they were heading toward their final shows. I remember being blown
away by seeing them, but also a little cold about the performance. Hard
to truly criticize though. I did get to see Floyd. If I had to choose a show it would be their first performance of the Wall at LA on 2/7/80. That was the show where the stage caught on fire and they had to stop the show during Empty Spaces to put it out. It also featured an extremelly extended jam on ABITW Part 3 (15 min!!!) while they waited for the crew to catch up with assembling the wall. Check out the boot 'Azimuth Coordinator Part 3' to hear the show. It was extremelly cool. ------------- I'm the shadow man, the jumping jack The man who can, but won't look back |

-Yes In the Round on the Tormato tour a great band, fabulous material, and an original presentation style. -Geoff Mann's farewell gigs at the Marquee with Twelfth Night, if not for the music itself than for the fanatical devotion of the fans and the passion of a singer going out on top. -Hatfield and the North's ensemble concerts with Gilgamesh. A set by each band, then a canterbury symphony (most of which unreleased) with 2 keyboard players, 2 guitarists, 2 drummers, 2 bassists, and 2 guitarists. -Happy the Man in 1978. On their "Live" album, they play a blazing set for what sounds like 7 people. In some songs, you can hear clinking glass from the bar. Lemme tellya, the clapping would be much louder if I had been there. -Steely Dan's Pretzel Logic concerts directly before they ceased to function as a touring band for the next two decades or so. -Camel's (or should we say Caramel's) Breathless tour with Richard Sinclair singing and Jan Schallas and Dave Sinclair bringing the amount of Caravan alumni to three. -Any/all Genesis tours from the pre-Tresspass shows to the tour in support of Three Sides Live in which they played Supper's Ready for the last time before it was replaced with an OLDIES MEDLEY  .-Echolyn's pre- and post-As the World concerts. A hardworking cult band crisscrossing the continent in the vain attempt that the world would notice their masterpiece. The tour would be the band's death knell, but the sounds they made were wonderful. |

Uriah Heep around the 'Demons And Wizards' era, and around the time of 'Firefly' with John Lawton as singer. Genesis- any time from 'Trespass' until 'Duke', especially 'The Lamb..' tour and 'A Trick Of The Tail'. ELP- 'Brain Salad Surgery' era, and having watched their recent 2-DVD I'd love to have seen the show with the full orchestra- I had previously criticised 'Works' but I hereby apologise for having done so, having heard some tracks for the first time in years. Camel- 'Moonmadness', 'I Can See Your House From Here' and 'Nude' eras. Yes- any show of the 'Yessongs' era Deep Purple- any 70s 'Mark II' show

I'd want to see a show from the early stretch the TFTO tour. At this point, they were doing all four songs from Tales (they dropped Remembering later), plus some earlier stuff. And it would bee cool to see Rick's historical curry antics in person!  -------------

I saw them do this and all of Close to the edge on one magical night in Glasgow; it was of course truly wonderous, a 4 hour concert that is indelibly stamped in my brain forever.
