Already been to my dream concert -- Deep Purple reunion concert, 1986 (I think) it was. My brother and I standing right next to the stage (and unfortunately very close to a speaker, my hearing hasn't been the same since). Fabulous concert. My brother remembers it best for talking to Ian Paice as he left the stage after the encore.

My own best moment was when Ritchie Blackmore started to do a very long (and bad, his soloing ability went down very quickly in his latter years) solo and I was looking around the stage. Ian Gillan notices me looking around and mouths at me 'look at him' and points at Blackmore. I mouth 'him?' and point at Blackmore. He nods. I point at him and make a one handed gesture, mouthing 'He's a wanker...'. Gillan pisses himself and goes to tell the bass player (forget his name, Glover was/is it?) and they both have a good laugh.

And, apart from that crap solo, it really was a great concert. Only one I can think of that was comparable was Paul Weller somewhere in the late 90's headlining the Reading festival. The two Gallacher brothers appear, do some songs with him then fly off into the night on their helicopter. Was very rock & roll.

Come over to England like Xmas time when Nick can actually drum.

 

[Omnium]

Hmmmmm, the ultimate folk/viking/epic metal gig/fest...

Wintersun, Amon Amarth, Ensiferum, Moonsorrow, Finntroll, Korpiklaani, Turisas

It'd take somethin special to beat that line-up, although I could just make up a 40 band list and say thats better...

 

[Moving Target]

Hmmm, Iron Maiden Maybe with Marty Friedman from Megadeth added as well.

Aces High, Out of the Silent Planet, The Trooper from Maiden, with Into the Lungs of Hell and Kill the King from Megadeth as that would be truely rawkin'.

Pink Floyd as support, with Wish You Were Here as the encore

Right, I'm going for a wank now
