 E.Fud An exquisite and truly unique concert experience: Mr. Ma played solo as he talked about his immigration from France to the US, and how he played for the president of the United States as a young child accompanied by his sibling on the piano. He spoke of his time at UNIVESITY and the influences that helped him grow throughout his career. He spoke of how it took him a while to find joy in the music, even though he was a child prodigy and could play exceptionally well as a youngster (the joy and appreciation came later). He played the most famous cello composition by Bach as well as Spiegel Im Spiegel by Avro Pärt. It was a multimedia presentation with a huge screen behind him, and there were lighting effects that spread throughout the auditorium, including the ceiling and side walls. He was affable, gracious, and unbelievably humble. It was a privilege of a lifetime. Yo‐Yo Ma Aug 14, 2026
 E.Fud Ha ha ha: 1982 and it was supposed to be The Who’s very “final tour”… they had a two night booking in Toronto, I went to the first night, it was phenomenal, I was right at the front at the stage lip, and because it was so great and because it was supposed to be their very last tour ever I scalped a ticket for the subsequent night and went again. Well, great concert, but it was definitely not even close to their final tour! The Who Aug 14, 2026
 E.Fud Went to hear Billy Bragg, he was OK, but the true revelation was Orchestral Maneuvers in the Dark, I went in thinking that since they were all synthesizers they would be not that great Live and yet they were phenomenal live! They were the best act on the whole ticket!! GLC Music Festival 1985 Aug 14, 2026
 E.Fud Truly, beautiful Concert, he and his musicians performed to wonderful sets in an auditorium that was made for amplifying, beautiful music. Loved it! Max Richter Aug 14, 2026
 E.Fud Honestly, not a great concert, which was pretty disappointing because there’s so much of his catalogue. I truly adore. I did learn that he wrote one of his most well-known songs at Hattie‘s hat in Ballard in Seattle. Ryan Adams Aug 14, 2026
 E.Fud Rickie was fantastic, top of her game, a focus & tight musical performance! Rickie Lee Jones Aug 14, 2026

 knoxmonkey Everclear and Spacehog played in Knoxville, TN on 7/23/96. I'm pretty sure they didn't play Noblesville, IN on the same day. X-Fest 1996 Aug 14, 2026
 E.Fud It’s impossible to believe that Mick is 80 years old, given his extraordinary stamina and incredibly forceful vocal performance. These guys were super tight - they’ve played together forever and they know each other‘s moves and they’re absolutely in sync- and this concert was incredibly fun. Stand out performance was Gimme Shelter; Mick and his duet partner absolutely knocked this out with incredible power! The Rolling Stones / Joe Bonamassa Aug 14, 2026
 mutantmonkeybutt I worked this concert. Kate Cebrano played third. Jason Donavan was MC. Austen Tayshus performed Australiana. Bob Hawke PM introduced Black Sorrows onto stage - filmed live and over 70K attended. Still have the backstage pass! The Black Sorrows / Divinyls / Colin Hay Aug 14, 2026
 E.Fud Jason played solo; his acoustic guitar sounded absolutely exquisite and his vocal performance was strong, clear, emotional and so incredibly heartfelt. He introduced the vast majority of the songs he played with charming anecdotes that really gave insight into the origins of the song and his connection to the material. The sound set up was perfectly balanced and beautifully projected. Just an incredible performance and it was a privilege to get to be in the audience. And one last comment, the repertoire was perfection, he absolutely chose all the songs that everybody wants to hear, which was very gracious of him to do. Jason Isbell Aug 14, 2026

 Crone on the Loose I was at the Sex Pistols concert at Randy's Rodeo in San Antonio in 1978. One of the highlights was the green slime thrown by someone in the audience landing on all of us close to the stage Sex Pistols Aug 14, 2026
 Hilliard T. The July 24, 1977 Emerson, Lake & Palmer concert at CNE Stadium in Toronto was performed strictly as a three-piece rock band without a symphonic orchestra. While early dates on the tour featured a full symphony orchestra, the massive financial and logistical burden caused the orchestra to be dropped before the Toronto show, leaving just Keith Emerson, Greg Lake, and Carl Palmer.
