 Topic: Classic Gigs In a Time Machine

Genesis - Selling England Tour with Gabe; Trick, and Seconds Out. Floyd - DSotM, Animals, Division Bell (more from curiosity) Camel - any. I'd also love to have bottled the Six of the Best gig at Milton Keyenes (maybe without the rain  ), and The Wall at Earls Court, so I could relive them. Not sure I really appreciated them then, as I would now!

Too many to choose from... Rush on Signals tour (I would kill to see songs like Digital Man, Camera Eye and Chemistry played live). Or Presto tour (Songs like Chain Lightning and Red tide)
Or... Finnish Wigwam from 1969-1974, any gig....
King Crimson from 69-70 (In the Court of the crimson king tour....)
Or ELP Brain salad surgery tour...

I'd love to go back and see the first A Passion Play concert. It must have been musically stunning and I'd like to see how they pulled off the Hare Story.

Pretty much any band you can think of. I missed it all due to being born in 1985!

Agree.
Another would be the "Fragile" tour by Yes. The last tour they did with Bruford on drums. There just isn't any video/audio of that available which is a crime against humanity!!![IMG]height=17 alt=Wink src="http://www.progarchives.com/forum/smileys/smiley2.gif" width=17 align=absMiddle>

Not strictly true actually, as a commonly available bootleg of the BBC program Sounding Out from 1971 features just such footage....filmed in that thriving metropolis Hemel Hempstead if my memory serves me correctly.
In answer to the question.
King Crimson - during their 1969 residency at the Marquee, perhaps rubbing shoulders with Bruford or Hackett in the audience, or anytime on the first Bruford Wetton tour of the UK late 1972.
Zappa - Roxy shows, 'nuff said.
Yes - so many to choose from I suppose but trying to limit myself - a full TFTO show, solo's tour 76 maybe Roosevelt Stadium. Any of the Relayer shows with Gryphon in support - then I would have really died and gone to heaven.
Gentle Giant - anything from the Octopus era before 3 Shulmans became 2.
Herbie Hancocks Headhunters - any smokin' night would do.
Caravan - really early - anything up to 71 I suppose.
Egg/National Health/Hatfields - can't get enough of the Dave Stewart magic....

Rush on the Hemispheres tour. I don't think anyone has ever played a better setlist than that.

To see the Enid perform Albion Fair and Song of Fand (among others) live at the Hammersmith...oh, how I wish I was alive then...

The first date of the Larks tongue in Aspic tour of King Crimson...thouse who have seen it say there was nothing like it...must have been mindblowing!!!
Also Led Zeppelin in 1971...after having produced that masterpiece that IV is...wow!!!

Also 'The Lamb...' and 'Selling England..' tours. |
As do I.
