Title: Legendary Musical Performances Post by: Axl4Prez2004 on November 27, 2010, 07:51:50 PM I was just surfing around on YouTube yesterday and came across a performance I had never seen before. Michael Jackson "Billie Jean Live at Motown 25 HD."
Yes, I know it's lip-synching...but Goddamn! If you can dance like that I will let it slide! When he broke out the Moonwalk for the 1st time on tv, people went nuts. Any other legendary performances out there you folks would recommend checking out?

A Historical show because of how much tension was between the band n because they split up backstage right after it. Title: Re: Legendary Musical Performances Post by: mrlee on November 28, 2010, 10:06:13 AM Nine Inch Nails live Woodstock 1994.
Musically not their best, but its the show that apparently broke them through into the mainstream, and personally i love the show because of how insane the band are! Constant stage destruction throughout their whole set. Awesome.

They paid tribute to all the innocent victims of 9/11.

"Oh bollocks, why should I carry on?" ;D I have to say, I'm not an expert on bands' live performances, but if I'd been born 20 years earlier, I would've loved to have been at The Stone Roses' 1989 Blackpool Empress Ballroom gig. Ian Brown sounds pretty poor on some songs, but just the feel of the whole thing must've been awesome. Waterfall from that show: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_HuB8Auh-6U (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_HuB8Auh-6U) Also, Nirvana's performance of Where Did You Sleep Last Night from MTV Unplugged is a classic too. 8) Title: Re: Legendary Musical Performances Post by: Gunner80 on November 28, 2010, 10:54:00 PM Guns N' Roses - The Ritz 88

Title: Re: Legendary Musical Performances Post by: mrlee on November 30, 2010, 11:22:18 AM Def Leppards in the Round official gig.
Really cool footage of a band at their peak, i think its also the first time a "In the round" stage was done. Artists that later used this style range from Metallica to U2. Title: Re: Legendary Musical Performances Post by: Bodhi on November 30, 2010, 03:43:49 PM Green Day @ Woodstock 94, Limp Bizkit(for better or worse) at Woodstock 99, Nirvana has a few, Unplugged, Reading 92, MTV VMA 92.. Guns N Roses @ Donnington.
Title: Re: Legendary Musical Performances Post by: One.In.A.Million on December 01, 2010, 08:45:37 AM I think my all time favourite legendary performance was Guns N' Roses at Rock In Rio 2001. A new era in GN'Rs history, a rebirth and a new saga.
The largest crowd Guns have ever played to, and just a superb vibe around that show. ;D Title: Re: Legendary Musical Performances Post by: AdZ on December 16, 2010, 09:03:47 PM Really cool footage of a band at their peak, i think its also the first time a "In the round" stage was done.
