No I think it was Live at Prestwick, Rowche Rumble was on it "We're gonna kick your liver in!" etc,

I think Mark introduced that by shouting "Last orders alf past ten". Just found the LP Totales Turns.

Bit of an acquired taste The Fall.

Probably should have sneaked Arctic Monkeys onto my list, fab group and good at festivals

[The Subhuman]

Not sure how I could leave Rammstein out tbh ..

Chino - The Fall is my track of the decade just passed, from 2010's Your Clutter Our Future ..but yes an acquired taste..

I agree.... I forgot Rush, NIghtwish, and several that you have named

Nemo was a great track but couldn't get into the rest of their stuff

[White Riot]

Now they would put on a great show

You only have to watch Paris to know that....Jonus Akerlund's wonderful concert film

Where are The Clash Cat?

Where are The Clash Cat?

Double booked with BB's festival so went there instead...

[Muppet the Cat]

Where are The Clash Cat?

I know, so many omissions - no Deep Purple/Rainbow/Metallica to name just a few favourites.

The temptation is just to put down your 21 favourite artists/bands - in which case the likes of Clash, Bowie etc would definitely be in. But I tried to come up with a mix (albeit rock orientated - but as. I think Sara pointed out that’s what tends to work best at festivals) of bands that would be good live and not all the same.

A couple though may work better on a smaller secondary stage

She offered them a bigger appearance fee; or, was a free visit to her famed ‘Shed’ ???

Didn’t know Joe was into that scene though

[Leeds1000]

Good idea this. I felt like i was involved in a game of top trumps when i was thinking this through. I have picked artists that i have never seen.

Day 1

Start the 3 days with the one and only...... Mr Elvis Pressley. What a singer would put everyone in the right mood.
UB40: The Labour of Love albums kept me entertained growing up.
Fleetwood Mac: Mainly for Rumours really. They would have to play the whole album.
The Who: Live in Hull. That's where the Leeds one was really filmed wasn't it?
Led Zep: I have seen a tribute that was really good. Would love to catch them in their pomp.
Jimi Hendrix: Would have to be in a small venue so i could really flavour Jimi's off the wall guitar playing.

Headline
Pink Floyd: Push comes to shove possibly my favourite band of all time? Listening to Pink Floyd Albums in a altered state of mind is like a interdimensional outer body experience.

Day 2

Michael Jackson: Any songs from Bad backwards. Shame he was a alleged peado.
Smiths: They have some blinging songs the Smiths
The White Stripes: Punchy has hell.
Pink Martini: Love em. Hope to get to catch them live when this is all over.
Buddy Guy: Got to have a bit of blues in there.
The Cure: Another band i used to turn my nose up at, only to really appreciate them when i grew up a bit.

Headline
The Beatles: It would have to be behind closed door away from all the screaming girls.

Day 3

ACDC: Say no more they would rip it up.
The Doors: Moody antidote to the fire of ACDC. Would Jim face the crowd, and no more of that mother stuff.
Tears for fears: Another band who's hit records really grabed me, and they still sound fresh to me.
Queen: Just seeing that Wembley performance. Who wouldn't want to be there.
Guns n Roses: Some great songs, not sure if Axl Rose voice would annoy me after a while.
Bowie: A real hard baster* for me Bowie. I remember watching a docu on him when he just come of stage somewhere in the states and he looked so alone, but stable in it. Coked up probably. He's been to that place.

Headline
The Rolling Stones: I would pay the entrance fee for Gimme Shelter alone.

Great festival 1000.

I left the Doors out as anytime I've watched any live coverage Jimbo spent a lot of the show just rolling around on the floor, drugged to f**k, screaming his head off. I love the doors though and had all of their albums at one time.

Yeah, there was a live concert on tv of GNR many years ago, the music and Slash especially was awesome, but that horrible noise coming out of Axl's gob just killed it, had to switch it off mate.

The Cure are awesome mate, brilliant on record and live.

I would get to the front row for Jacko just so that I could hit him with the first can to hit the stage, he'd be canned off in a couple of minutes, the dirty ba***rd. I liked him as a kid in the Jackson 5, but didn't get they hype when he was solo, Prince pisses all over him

I saw the Stones at Hampden 30 years ago, if you get the chance I would still see them mate, brilliant band and very nostalgic.

He was out there wasn't he Jim. I don't know how the other band members put up with him either. He would waffle until the cows come home, and they would just carry on playing like the Titanic was going down.

100% more talented Prince than Jacko, he was a multi-instrumentalist. Not sure about the better songs tho, Wacko gets that vote from me, i never really connected with Princes music for some reason.

Yep, on a mission to Mars mate. Very intelligent guy which he shows in his lyrics. This clip always makes me laugh, Robbie Krieger with the big black-eye, the old fellas on the strings in the background and Jimbo smashing it, but misses his line at 1:14 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U6bRukfcUf0

Different tastes mate I didn't like Jacko or his music and as much as I love Prince I can see how plenty wouldn't

Love the black eye. They were a band of rag tags. I enjoyed the film with Val Kilmer. Dropping Acid in the dessert of all places. Great stuff. Jim certainly burned the candle in every orifice he could fit one.
