i do hope that carla, cole and susannah help out on this new album (if its actually being done). Doh! I read it as '89 not '99. Sorry. Yes, I was there. Awesome show. And even then it would have been 1990 not 89. Where is my head? edit. [Edited 4/21/05 12:30pm] | |

The Barkays - 1985. This is how they were looking at the time and complete with the boa constrictor, they lived up to the song "Freakshow On The Dance Floor". Andy is a four letter word. | |

My favourite gig was probably one of my first - John Cale and Chris Spedding back in 87.
However, the best performance I ever saw any act give was a free outdoor performance by the Neville Brothers. I know almost nothing about this band except for Aaron Neville's sappy ballads that occasionally polluted the airwaves way back when, so I had few expectations one way or the other. They put on a seriously intense performance of hard Louisiana grooves. Definitely one of the best things I've ever seen in my life - and it was free. | |

Prince & The Time (1982 Capitol Theater in Passaic, NJ) The 5,000 seat venue was half empty. Tickets were only $12.50 and I ended up going home that night with the "freak" in front of me----Thanks Prince for warmin' her up for me!! | |

Jealous?
But seriously, I've had a lot of concert luck and seen a lot of great shows. And I'm willing to travel. Plus, no one said I had to limit it. I'd be hard pressed to list only 3. | |

Michael Jackson - History
Prince - his 2000 celebration concert James Brown - concert off his latest tour. It felt good! Sade - Lovers Rock Tour w/ India Arie 2001 I´m dying to see Sade. She´s the last one that I´d really ĺove to see that I haven´t seen yet. oohhh your going to love it..theres something to say about good musicianship and a subtle performance....it was just mindblowing.. I believe you! "When Michael Jackson is just singing and dancing, you just think this is an astonishing talent. And he has had this astounding talent all his life, but we want him to be floored as well. We really don´t like the idea that he could have it all." | |

One of my favorites . . .
Joey Ramone's Birthday Bash - NYC, 1997. Not only did I get the chance to personally shake his hand and thank him for The Ramones' music--I got kissed by RONNIE SPECTOR after she sang 'Be My Baby' while lookin' right at me! 
Religious experience, that one. | |

Prince's Musicology show was certainly among my top three (fantastic seats didn't hurt it's ranking any!), but here are a couple of my other highlights:
Stevie Ray Vaughan (with Ernie Isley opening) one month before he died The White Stripes in 2003 in an auditorium that holds maybe 5,000 people BB King at the Beacon Theatre in NYC on his 74th birthday (with Kenny Wayne Shepherd and Tower of Power opening for him) Want to hear about the other 58 shows?!  | |
