Message: [QUOTE="Roger G, post: 2381778, member: 7083"] U2 in an unannounced concert on the streets of San Francisco during my lunch hour. Of course, I was a little late getting back to work. What a day! Bruce Springsteen, Tom Petty, Bonnie Raitt and others at a no nukes concert in Madison Square Garden on Bruce's birthday. Already loved Bruce, but didn't know the others. Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers absolutely blew me away. They had just come out with Damn the Torpedoes and rocked the place sliding out on their knees with guitars ablazing. Bruce Springsteen, Peter Gabriel, and others at Human Rights Now! concert. It was also on Bruce's birthday. (I also saw him one other time on my birthday). I was a huge fan of Peter Gabriel at the time. That was a spiritual experience. Mind-blowing. I guess Roy Orbison was there, but Gabriel's part of the show so impressed me I don't remember much else. Todd Rundgren and Utopia in Central Park at the rink. There was a light rain that day and it only added to the drama. Todd sounded like nobody could sound better that day and the whole band sounded beautiful. It was very Beatlesque. They were wearing uniforms, if I remember correctly, and they had just come out with their concept album Road to Utopia. Any of the six Queen concerts I saw. They sounded different in concert than they did on albums, but just as great. Freddie Mercury was the greatest showman. Brian May put on a great show to as did the others. Consistently excellent every time I saw them. Honorable mention. David Bowie's Glass Spider tour concert at Spartan's stadium in San Jose, California. I loved the extravagance. Also have to mention the Talking Heads in Forest Hills and Madness in a theater in Manhattan. At both, everyone danced like it was the last day. A total trip. [/QUOTE]
