I would tag my own choice onto this and that would be the Springfield gig (1974) on the official bootlegs. The version of Pictures is the best I've heard by them.

I would go to see Yes in the Fall of 1977 for the "Going for the One" tour. Oh, yeah - I DID see them then! (Sometimes, it is great to be an older guy!) But, if I could time-travel, I would go see them at that point again...

Saw, Rush at Wembley in 81 and 83 and elsewhere since but would have loved to see them at Hammersmith Odeon. Of gigs not seen, gotta be Yes anytime prior to and including Going for the One, Genesis prior to Then there were Three and Pink Floyd on the Animals tour. Just that bit too young!

Do you have more info on this? The full date or venue? I've got tons of ELP boots, in fact I thought I had them all but I don't see any 1974 Springfield gigs on my list. Is that Springfield MA? |

I can't remember exactly when and where it was, but I'd love to go back in time and see the Amon Düül ll gig where they were dressed in lion costumes
Also kinda cool to have been sitting in the ruins of Pompeii, back when Floyd paid them a visit.

Or Zappa in Montreux, when some stupid with a flare gun burnt the place to the ground, and Frank was reported to shout don't panic then jumped out of a window.

Your link doesn't work. This appears to be the correct one. |

Camel's first comeback gig at The Royal Hall, Harrogate on Sat 19th Oct 2013.
Hang on - of course I was there!! But it was so great I'd love to experience it again. At least I've got the DVD, but nothing will replace that feeling when they came on stage. |

My God, that would have to be King Crimson '73/'74. That was the Holy Grail, and I missed it.

Another one is Tangerine Dream just around Alpha Centauri with Steve Schroyder on the farfisa organ. Yowza! I'd give away my baby sister for that. They were nothing short of awesome live at the time - at least from what I've heard of legboots and jootoobs.
