ow, nice one
It's the trick not to think this through as then I'd never be able to limit myself to only 3!
1.
Ramones. No matter where, but let's just take NYC, Rocket To Russia daze. One of the biggest mistakes of my life: to not have seen them once.
And I've had more than one opportunity... Something I just cannot explain to myself.
2.
Joy Division. a 79 gig somewhere nice in the UK or the Paradiso gig in Amsterdam 80. For obvious reasons...
3.
Revolutionary Dub Warriors. Bultrock festival, Ravels, Belgium. Maddest festival I ever enjoyed. Everybody far out, right in the woods, just mental. The year before I first went the Dub Warriors played there. I've never seen them and absolutely love their stuff, especially the first album. Steve Swann has passed away some years ago so will never see them. On-U Sound rules the nation!
I add one anyway, just because I have too: The
Sisters at Doornroosje, Nijmegen June 84.
My favouritest bootleg of them was recorded there and it's The Sisters in their coolest era
