Weirdly it was Killing Joke at the Garage in Glasgow in the mid-90s. Jaz Coleman got one of his anti-establishment red mists and was haranguing every one about the evils of the Tory government "they fucked you all in the ass man, they fucked you all" whilst Geordie and Youth kept the riff going. He was eventually, still declaiiming loudly, dragged off stage by the club bouncers as they wanted to open the place as a nightclub.

Reply to If you could "listen" to an album for the first time again which album would you pick? by JGCities

Ok, Dark Side of the Moon...my parents used to play that for me to fall asleep to. Crazy, I know but it works. The highs and lows in that album, they knew what they were doing. I still have nights if I'm very buzzed, I'll put it on to calm myself to fall asleep. It has to be on very quiet. I'm out before 1/2 way through the album. Maybe it's just remembering my childhood? Who knows, but it works for me.

Dobet Gnahore, goodness knows how long ago. It was a small venue and her set was amazing. One song, almost a lament, you could hear a pin drop. It was a memorable evening.

On the other end of the scale, Frankie Goes to Hollywood at the height of their popularity. Heavy on the synth rock and I didnt tear up but it was such a gig, despite the crush and the biggish venue.
