If you were given the chance to see one historical music performance what or who would it be?

Question

choose from any performer or festival

Answer 1

The late, great Stevie Ray Vaughan, playing anywhere!
Peace, Stevie.

Answer 2

It would have to be Joy Division playing Bains-Douches. The only preformance of this I've heard is a bloody awful bootleg. The quality was so bad that I'm almost certain I could hear where some bits were edited.
That, and also the fact that Ian Curtis was probably one of the greatest preformers there has ever been.
I would also love to have seen the original preformances of Samuel Barber, in particular Adagio for Strings which is one of the few classical pieces I actually like. He isn't well known as a composer which I think is a bit sad really....

Answer 3

I would love to see The London Philarmonic performing "The Hall of the Glass Mountain" In the Royal Albert Hall

Answer 4

Bob Dylan's "electric set" at the Newport Folk Festival

Answer 5

Live 8

Answer 6

The Beatles at Shea Stadium in August of 1965 simply because of the cultural significance the group had at the time on rock and roll.

Answer 7

The Doors

Answer 8

I Would say that Pink Floyd's The Wall, for the pics of the Vinyl Album seems it was awesome. Plus its a very important affair in contemporary history.

Answer 9

The original woodstock performers brought back again, with Bob Dylan this time.

Answer 10

Either Jimi doing "Star Spangled Banner" at Woodstock , Or Van Halen on a major city on their very first tour.
