Davepig has 1 The Kinks concert.

The Kinks was an iconic British rock band, formed in North London by brothers Ray and Dave Davies. In 1963, the band, released its debut self-titled album with original members drummer Mick Avory (until 1984) and bassist Peter Quaife (until 1969). The album peaked at number 3 and included the hit single, “You Really Got Me,” the band’s first top 10 hit in the US and number one in the UK. After becoming a key figure in the 1960s counterculture movement, The Kinks continued experimenting with new and diverse sounds over the next several decades. During the Britpop era of the 1990's, the band experienced a resurgence in popularity. Nonetheless, internal tensions within the band ultimately led the band to break-up with The Kinks performing its final show on August 1, 1995.
