I saw Manic Street Preachers play Everything Must Go and Super Furry Animals playing both Fuzzy Logic and Radiator (twice), all of those were last year.
I'd love to see Gaslight Anthem play The '59 Sound in full next year since it'll be it's 10th anniversary but I can't see that happening given the fact that they're on hiatus. I'd also love to see pretty much any Springsteen album from Greetings up to (and including) Born in the USA played in full
Not a bad album (just about!), but when you see an all-time legendary artist for the first time, it is a bit of a let-down when they play their whole new album track-by-track... Thankfully he played some of his better tracks from the back-catalog before and after that just about salvaged the experience of being the lone 20-something amidst a crowd of 50-somethings 🤣 _________________ http://distranscontinuum.blogspot.co.uk/
I've only seen four albums performed live in their entirety, though when I saw the Who play they turned Endless Wire into a medley where they at least touched on every song live but only played a few of them in full.
Earlier this year I was to a fantastic concert with Neal Morse Band, performing the entire "The Similitude of a Dream", 107 minutes of progressive rock bliss. In the crescendo of the final song I got both goosebumps and tears in my eyes. Crazy.
Had a ticket for the screamadelica one but had to sell it and take my girlfriend to elbow.
Seen a few of these things, old people love them. Some good ones I've seen that I remember....
Yes, yes we do 🤣
No disrespect to Elbow but over Screamadelica...ouch! I had to drag my wife away from Rammstein to see Screamadelica (it was at a festival that coincidentally The Stooges also played. Primal Scream, The Stooges, and Grinderman to finish the night were personal highlights). Although she previously did not get into the album that much she was a convert after it.
I am jealous of the Spritualized gig. Would have loved to see that awesome album performed live.
Ha yeah. Well I'd seen scream many times before, though this was a bit different. She had planned to go with someone else but they pulled out and she loves elbow.
See forever changes getting a mention, I saw that one and remember a house is not a motel being fantastic. He then played new stuff that was bloody awful. Missed out on the pharcyde playing their debut the other week, I passed on it as not the full line of that record but my pal said it was class. And just remembered I saw 82 year old Shirley Collins play her recent album, very nice. Best gig I've ever seen by someone over 80, I'm pretty sure on that.
Somehow as part of the festival they were convinced to play both nights just before the headliners, first day Blue Album, second day Pinkerton. Went straight into the albums, played them through, then played 3 random songs to close each set.
I prefer the Blue Album of the two, but Pinkerton live was probably a bit better.

Foo Fighters doing One by One even though it's probably my least favorite record from them, still quite the story.
I was a MAJOR Foo fan at this time. I was part of their street team and won some thing to be Nate Mendel's double in the music video times like these when they were throwing things off the bridge.
The party was at the Virgin Records store on Laurel Canyon and Sunset Blvd back when I lived there. They shut down the store for the party. Pretty cool experience to see them play in front of about 150 people, and at least 20 of them were involved in the production of the record.
I got a signed copy... if only it were Wasting Light or The Colour and the Shape... 🙁
