I'm sure there will be lots for The Beatles at the craven or in Hamburg, or similar.

I however would go for any of Ramones, Blondie, Talking Heads at CBGBs, small venue and the start of a breakout

First night of Le Sacre du Printemps, Paris 1913. Would have been fascinating to have been in the midst of the riot.

Not really bothered by front row but always regretted not seeing Mudhoney live.

I was too, and next to them at bar afterwards. Siobhan and Keren

One's missed - any Joy Division or Beatles gig.

I saw them at The Concorde less than two years ago. I'm sure they'll be back.

Already had it. Pulp at the Brixton Academy in September 2011 (I think). An absolutely euphoric night. You name it. They played it. My best gig bar none.

Still. I've got Alabama 3 at Concorde 2 tonight to be getting on with.

I would imagine the first time Dark Side of the Moon was played as a whole would have been rather memorable...

God - what a decision to have to make; there are so many.

Perhaps Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, Ray Charles & BB King on stage together at Madison Square Garden in 1970?
