God what I would do to see him again!

Oh and I have seen the Saw Doctors 20 times, not 19.

Sell your drumkit for a ticket for The Red Piano!

Mars Bar

If I keep my drum kit, I could some day play in the Red Piano Show! (I can dream...)

How do you know I have a drum kit?

It's the science of deduction.

Mars Bar

I'm scared.

delbertgrady

Ha ha ha. Let's just say your user name on another forum kind of gives the game away. Sorry to freak you out.

Mars Bar

Yeah but how did you put a username on another forum with this username?! lol

delbertgrady

Because in both threads you said you were first in the queue at Thomond Park and you were enthusing that Elton pointed right at you, so you had to be the same person.

(This has gone way off topic here... )

Mars Bar

That's what I suspected, I'm like a child at Christmas with a new present after the gig!

Sorry about going off topic guys. It finished here!

That's pretty impressive. Mine are:

1. Bob Dylan, Toronto - outdoors, blus sky, was young and impressionable. Seen him 3 times since but nothing like the first
2. Bruce Springsteen, RDS - he played for 4 hours and i never knew much about him, thought he was a cheesey US Rock star but then i discovered Darkness on The Edge of Town and Born to Run
3. Jimmy Cliff, New York - Very uplifting and happy gig
4. The Wailers, POD - More uplifting. Always love good reggae in concert
5. Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Slane - sun was shining, great fun


Most Disappointing

1. Oasis - Marley Park
2. Oasis - Lansdowne road

You were there? Wow! I saw them in 2007 in Galway, was a great show! Have met Steve a couple of times and met the whole band at that gig!

Just posted another thread about this gig- would love to see photos/videos of this- there is one on youtube and myspace about 8mins long but can't see myself in it- any help from anyone out there gratefully appreciated but great to see the (edited) video nevertheless- really brought back memories

I really enjoyed AC/DC, DM and Floyd but the Bad concerts in Cork as my first concerts remain the best, I remember the second date had thousands of tickets to sell and the queue to puchase them from people on the way out from the first concert was huge ensuring two sell outs.
DM will be my last concert as there's noone out there left I want to see really.
