Favourite Live Gig?
 
What's your Favourite live gig you've ever been to?

I've only ever been to one, but it was one of the best nights of my life. The 1975 - Bristol O2 Academy 26th September 2013. MMX and Night Engine supported. Night Engine were a bit weird, but MMX were amazing! I remember thinking after the two supports, The 1975 can't be much better. I was so wrong. They came on, and a roar of screams and cheers filled the room. It was so good. Everybody was singing along, bouncing up and down, and generally going mental. Then Chocolate came on, I started at the left of the arena, ran into the middle with all the people going insane. Then they went off and we all were chanting "we want sex, we want sex" (sex was a song in their encore). They came back on and again the whole place went crazy and every went mad to Sex. They ended with 'You' which brought everyone back to a (slightly) calmer mood.

I had an exam the next day, and my ears were ringing all night, but I didn't care. Best night ever!!!

There's already a similar thread in the rock & metal section...

Since you mentioned a band (The 1975) considered a rock band, as being your favorite live gig, I thought I'd mention the fact that there's already a thread in the rock & metal section for such a post.
If you had mentioned a band or performer from another genre (since your thread was in the general music section) I wouldn't have brought it up.
It was an observation, not an argument.

Firstly, The 1975 are an Indie Rock band imo, although there is some debate what genre they are.
Secondly, other people may reply for different genres, so I didn't want to use one in the rock and metal section because that would limit people's opinions, and it wouldn't be their favourite live gig, it would be there favourite rock and metal gig.

Case closed.

By your own admission, The 1975 are a rock band.

Admit it, you just didn't bother to use the search function.

THEY ARE NOT A ****ING ROCK BAND!!!

Genres: Alternative rock, indie rock, nu gaze, electronic rock, indie pop
Wikipedia tells you this... I said they were indie rock, which is listed on the genres above. I think you're wrong.
