I saw Floyd on the “Dark Side Of The Moon” tour and they’re certainly up there in my top gigs. Maiden I’ve seen twice, most recently doing “A Matter Of Life And Death” live; good as that was, I preferred their looser approach on the “Brave New World” tour.

Now I need to think of my own favourites….

‘Biggest’ and ‘Best’ aren’t the same thing, except to a Texan

The biggest gig of all was Iron Maiden at Rock in Rio!

I’ve seen Skinny Puppy live, once, during their Too Dark Park tour – it was, in a word, overwhelming.

In your gigs from the first era I agree with Floyd and the Gillan/Budgie gig. If Nightwing, who were also on the bill, hadn’t dropped out, it would have been even better.

It’s a shame I only got to see Maiden when they played Reading the next time on the Number of the Beast Tour. It was all precise, formulaic and sterile by then.

However, I think the last night Thin Lizzy played Hammersmith Odeon tops the lot. Complete with Gary Moore, Brian Robertson and Eric Bell.
