Same for me... and then I'd probably go for VU in the end, even though it would be without John Cale.

Off list I think early Black Sabbath or The Theater of Eternal Music would be great as well. But if sonicl's paying I'd go to any of these, even the Grateful Dead to find out what they were actually like. I've been avoiding them like the plague so far.

Some famous gigs in 1969 were of course Woodstock and the Beatles' rooftop concert.

My parents' concert-going days were in the late 1950s, but they were quite square, and the only concert I think I can remember being mentioned was someone like Pat Boone. No rock 'n' roll stories from them, I'm afraid.

the stooges followed closely by king crimson.

then again, i would go around the u.s. trying to catch as many garage bands as possible. then go to england and do the same. then go live in germany.

led zeppelin didn't really perfect their live shows until 1973-1975. i have a zeppelin DVD set and the 1969 show is kind of loose and disorganized. plus, by the 70s dazed and confused stretched out to like a 1/2 hr long.

That's great....I always look at that "Who's played here" sign when I go to Merriweather.

I voted for 1969 powerhouse Led Zeppelin, you whores.
