What's your favorite Live-Music Moment? [Win SBD]

in danceweekend •  8 years ago  (edited)

Dear live music fans,


there is no better way to experience the power of music as through being at a live-concert or festival. And cause it's forbidden to dance and party in public today in most parts of Germany (cause of a crucifixion 2000 years ago), I thought we should celebrate our own #danceweekend by sharing the best live-performances we experienced or found online.

Here are some examples:



Björk - Declare Independance (Live in Paris)


David Gilmour - Shine On You Crazy Diamond - Acoustic version


Radiohead - Weird Fishes/Arpeggi (Live at "Later... with Jools")

I saw Björk and Radiohead live a few years ago (at different performances, though).
The Gilmour video was posted a few days ago by @katharsisdrill and it's truly amazing.

Please add your favorite live-music moment in the comments!

If it's a whole concert, it would be helpful when you also provide the timecode of the song you enjoyed most.


As @gtg refused to take the price money last time, I will give away 2 SBD in total this time. One SBD for the song, I liked most and 0.5 SBD each for place 2 and 3.

All styles and genres are welcome! Thanks for listening & taking part!

P.S.: Kudos to @uwelang for introducing the #danceweekend tag to the community

Edit: Just noticed that there are various free livestreams of the Coachella Festival on youtube. Todays headliner is Radiohead. Go check them out here!

Back in the 80's when we stillhad Apartheid here in South Africa and all kinds of embargo's and boycotts we were lucky enough to have Champion Jack Dupree visit. My very very first live concert... was so special.

Not in BB Kings class but still a class act.

This is cool, I didn't know that he lived (and died) in Germany... He also seems to have played together with Eric Clapton und John Mayall. Great share.

I also once saw a documentary about the creation of Paul Simons Graceland during the South African boycott. Very interesting.

Thanks for sharing this story here @mammasitta. It is really outstanding and I wished I could have met Miles Davis once in my life :-) So sad that you lost nearly all the photographies.

my tourmangment stories are stored in my harddrive :) and heart

Great !!!

5 days and nights of electronic madness . Ricardo Villalobos my all time Favourite for Ade 2016

I somehow missed the ADE until now, seems to be a great event. I will watch out for it this year. Thanks!

its an awesome electronic circus of best electronic music I have heard in my whole musical carreer. Circoloco was also amazing in Ibiza at DC 10 on Jan 1st. You must go at least once in your life

Almost forgot about this:


Turbonegro - Live At Bizarre Festival 2002
I had been there filming for Smirnoff and it was amazing!
Play from 58:38

Here is a very special one from avant-garde jazz musician John Zorn.


John Zorn & Naked City with Eye - NYC live

dont actually remember a lot from festivals but this was one moment that somehow stayed with me ..

thats all the footage from that but heres song from another venue, (slightly bigger.. - wasnt there)

The song is awesome! So much energy! Didn't know the band yet. Thanks for sharing!

Here is another example of a really amazing live performance. One of my all time favorites:

Duracell, Space Harrier (London)

That has been a very special performance indeed. I like the idea, that you made a whole post to share your story.
I've never attended a show like this, but I can totally understand, why it's been worth. Very hypnotic industrial stuff. Thanks for sharing.


Not to forget Rage Against The Machine - Killing In The Name - 1993
Happy to have seen them live two times :-)

Also live-music without any crowd would be great. Like this one, I recently discovered:


MNHM - Noise From The Netherlands @ White Noise Sessions

Ok, I'll bite.

Just recently got reminded about this band and well I am in love.

Shpongle - When shall I be Free.

I have to seem them play live one day just looks tons of fun.

Great find! Didn't know the band, but sounds really great, a bit like oriental-psychedelic-rock. Thanks for sharing!

I guess they call it psybient - short for well psychedelic ambient. One of the main reasons I am attracted to it is the incorporation of world music. Plus it has a way of adding grit to upbeat music which to me isn't always easy to pull off.

Here is a link to the full show well worth a couple hours of time. I find it hard not to move to a lot of the songs just kinda infectious.

This is really great. Thanks again :-)

Thank you ;-)

Muse playing on the Main Stage at Reading Festival in 2002; this was when I realised just how energetic and talented Matt Bellamy is! He hopped from instrument to instrument as he effortless ripped throughout a fast paced set, keeping the crowd enthralled and jumping despite the terrible weather we all endured that weekend.

Loving it! I saw Muse at least two times playing live! Once in Spain at the FIB-festival (2002) and then at Rock am Ring about 2009. Both times had been very special moments (which I shared with my girlfriend). Thanks for bringing that up!

jazz

I love jazz-music, too. Would you mind sharing one of your favorite artists/live-performances through adding a youtube video? That'll be great!

I like this one here:


Miles Davis live in Tokyo 85
Never saw him live, though.

Or do you know E.S.T.? I loved them.


Esbjörn Svensson Trio in Latin America 2007
