The Clash
The Beatles
The Doors
Hendrix
Nirvana

No idea what the best venue would be, never been to a concert anywhere I'd call great.

The Who - anywhere outdoors
Dyland and The Band - at the Historic Orpheum in Mpls.

Of course I meant Dylan

Wow. That should be interesting, even with Waters' moonbat views.

Any venue
1) King Crimson- "Red" era
2) Pink Floyd- "Animals" era
3) Genesis- before Gabriel left
4) Cream
5) Motley Crue- "Theatre of Pain" (doesn't fit in with the others, but the comedic value would be great)

Stones, 1971 or 1972.
Clapton, 1974 or 1975.
Pink Floyd, 1975.
Zep, 1971 or 1972.
Beatles, late 1967 (after Magical Mystery Tour).

Venue? Wherever I could get a front row seat. Preferably a 7,500 to 15,000 seat arena.

Oh, and one more thing. None of this three songs and you're off bullshit. I want the full 2+ hours from each of them.

Guns n Roses, 2, 3, 4 from your list, and late 70s Pink Floyd

The Pony? Finally, a reason to go into Asbury Park.

I'd resurrect some dead guys and hope it doesn't turn out like The Monkey's Paw or whatever that old horror story was called.

1) Lynnard Skynnard
2) Stevie Ray Vaughn and Double Trouble

Maybe at the Tulsa Assembly Center, just so these guys don't have to travel too far in their condition.

1) Jeffries Fan Club
2) Live on Release
3) Nirvana (Nevermind era)
4) The Doors
5) The Clash (London Calling era)

Yes, I know, you've never heard of the first two. Your loss.

I haven't seen Captain and Taneal on anyone's list yet and I know some of you sick fuckers are into Muskrat Love. It all starts with gerbils then, before you know it, you wind up with a live otter up your ass.

Bunch of miscreant whackos.

And Justice For All was the first step in Metallica's decline... Ride the Lightning and Master of Puppets were better, more honest.

David Gilmour already singled out the US for criticism.

David Gilmour released a statement on the group's website saying, 'Like most people I want to do everything I can to persuade the G-8 leaders to make huge commitments to the relief of poverty and increased aid to the third world. It's crazy that America gives such a paltry percentage of its GNP to the starving nations,' he said.

Fuck this concert. I'm sick of these sniveling asswipes.

Uh, that was me above.

RE: And Justice For All & Metallica,

I was going to go with Master of Puppets (Best. Album. Ever.), but I chose . . . And Justice For All because "One" kicks serious ass, and I had to hear that.

They can probably skip the rest of the album after that.

Cheers,
Dave at Garfield Ridge

I had seen some interview with him where he essentially admitted to agreeing with Waters on politics. That statement about America essentially seals the deal. Just out of curiosity, I wonder how much of his money goes to the"starving nations?" Asswipe. I'll be skipping this piece of crap, too.

Is there any way we can mix artists together for our ultimate lineup? Like say, put Paul Anka in front of Van Halen? Tom Jones fronting Megadeth?

1) Gabriel-era Genesis
2) The Who before Keith died
3) The classic Yes lineup (Anderson, Howe, Squire, Wakeman, White)
4) Peter Green-era Fleetwood Mac
5) Pre-Aqualung Jethro Tull

The problem with Guns n' Roses is you have to get them on a good night. Saw them twice. Once shitty, once amazing.

A Floyd reunion. Damn. I wonder what their set list will be? I wanted to see them on the Pulse tour, but couldn't get away from the Army for the weekend.

Manowar, 1991 on the Kings of Metal tour
Metallica, 1986 for Master of Puppets. Seen them since.
Guns n' Roses, 1987 for Appetite
Robert Johnson, some dark 1930's night in the Mississippi delta, to see if he really was the greatest blues guitarist of all time.
Jimi Hendrix, 1969.

Pink Floyd memory: I happened to be in Venice, Italy in June or July of '89 and they were doing a concert from a barge in the lagoon.

I remember drifting off to sleep, hotel window open, in that delicious point between waking and sleep, listening to "Comfortably Numb".

Nirvana pre-Nevermind, (seen it, unbelievable)
The Minutemen
The Ramones any time
Hendrix
The Doors

Venue: Saratoga Springs outdoor venue (forget the name, saw the Dead there once).

Zeppelin, Yes, and Genesis all '73
Rush '78
Hendrix '69

This is to The Warden and Prolix:

I know people don't like to hear non-Americans making make critical comments about our country or government, but I think David Gilmour had a good point actually, and every right to express it.

Maybe our government should've been a little more concerned with 3rd- world poverty rather than funneling oil out of the middle east (Where is all that $$ going when we're currently paying $2.40 a gallan for gasoline? It's pretty much ascertained that it isn't going back into rebuilding Iraq -- or maybe I'm wrong, and that actually is the correct way to "fight terror", although I'm sure Haliburton is doing quite well for itself these days. Maybe they could right a check?)

Anyway, as far as David giving "his (own) money", I've heard that he's been quietly involved in numerous charities over the years, including donating the equivalent of 6 million USD to housing for the homeless in London. He just doesn't brag about it. Not everyone needs to wear their philanthropy on their sleeve for their own ego and adulation.

And while we're on the subject, what about all the politians who have money directed into their own private "offshore accounts". Why don't they donate some of their own money???

I don't mean to offend anyone, but calling David Gilmour an "asswipe" is completely inappropriate when he just stated his opinion. There are plenty of actual "asswipes" in power right now who have more money and alot more pull than David Gilmour ever will and could do alot more for the state of the our country and the world than what is currently being done.

And that is my opinion.

Oh and BTW, Pink Floyd is also donating profits from the increase of record sales since Live8 to the same cause.
