i agree about woodstock. my thought process for selecting monterey is that marked the introduction of the most influential guitarist of all time. setting the guitar on fire, like a rolling stone, wild thing, etc. it was all brilliant. woodstock didn't do anything that wasn't done before....it was just bigger. thoughts?

it would get my vote for most historic, though.

live aid was the most significant........it was actually for a cause

yeah, i can see that. i suppose there many angles that one could take with "significant." whether it means for a cause, influential to music, etc.

Tis your thread, how do you mean it Das?

For my part I answered significant as in on the global stage and the cause, NOT, for the music which was....mostly meh!

i didn't really want to put restrictions/limits on the definition of significant, simply because this way it brings up more discussion and debate.

if your first instinct was for the global cause then you should go with that.

good, glad we got that cleared up.

this opens up millions of possibilties......elvis's first concert,queens last concert,the rolling stones hiring hells angels as security.....all are significant

They raised over 150 euros in one day. I would HAVE to agree here. :thumbup

 

[Revenant]

Most significant would be Ozzfest '06 seeing as how that was my first concert where i experienced crowd surfing, moshing, wall of death, and as for the cons I was burnt like a lobster!

As for any of those old concerts... Thats exactly what they are old! and I'm not so they aren't significant to me xD

The Cure put on an awesome show both times I saw them. NoFX was hilarious. Ummmm, Morrissey was awesome, also.
