3 Must Have Albums

[ianking]

Such a difficult decission here.

I really do like my music both new and old.

Im big into Coldplay, Oasis, Radiohead, Kings of Leon but I also love oldies such as Pink Floyd, Dire Straits, Eric Clapton, Paul Weller, Fleetwood Mac

My 3 albums if stuck on a dessert island would be


The Verve - Urban Hyms

Oasis - Definitely Maybe (but it was a hard call between that and Whats the Story Morning Glory)

David Gilmore - Live in Gdansk


but its really difficult to leave behind the likes of Coldplay Parachutes and Echoes Pink Floyd best of.

[G17RDY]

Mine would be

1. Nirvana - Nevermind
2. Pink Floyd - The Division Bell (or wish you were here - Undecided at this point)
3. Spice Girls

Nah only kidding......................

I wouldn't put Pink Floyd in my top three!!!

In no set order,

U2 - Achtung Baby 1991 (which was a couple of years in front of THE best staduim concerts ever - Zooropa 1993)

I was there, at the front in the pen bit at Celtic Park when I was 17 having got there at something like 8am. First stadium gig I ever went to and it was awesome :-)

I was there, at the front in the pen bit at Celtic Park when I was 17 having got there at something like 8am. First stadium gig I ever went to and it was awesome :-)

I had been to at least 5 (2 x Tiffanys, 1 x Barrowland & 2 x SECC) U2 concerts before this tour so I always knew the gigs were brilliant. What stuck out by far on this one was the MASSIVE stage show that they had put together.

Off topic 'ish' ................ but

Bit of a story here ............. me & a few of my mates had tickets for the gig & were all set for a 'stonkin' day out . I worked part time in Heraghty's Bar back then and another one of the lads behind the bar mentioned that his cousin from Ireland was involved in the UK/Irish leg of the world tour. "Oh aye" says we "what's he doing then"? "Well" says he, he's a stage actor & he has been selected to do a support act all about the horrors of ethnic cleansing (for those who don't recall, back in the early 90's the atrocities of the Bosnian War were being relayed on our TV's on a daily basis) highlighting the plight of the war in former Yugoslavia. We quickly find out that he needs 50 plus 'extra's' to dress up as soldiers & carry flags around the pit/screamer (front pen as you called it) as they perform their show (I seem to recall a massive hoover on the stage). "Well look no further" says we & before we knew it practically most of Heraghty's young clientele had been signed up as extra's for the gig. All we had to do was be at Celtic Park by early afternoon & that was us for two days at the gigs for nowt in the sectioned off pit/screamer area (it's apparently called that because when the band walk out onto the catwalk type area, some folk tend to scream), a 100% freebie

A brilliant weekend & feck me nearly 18 years ago!!!!!!!!!!!
