I think if I was going to listen to one or the other, Wish would edge it more than 50% of the time, but Dark Side is still one I'll reach for. I'm also very fond of Delicate Sound of Thunder, and Momentary Lapse (first concert I ever went to) as well as The Division Bell. Haven't listened to The Wall for many years.

Same here, I went to the Wembley concert, must have been ‘88, awesome atmosphere and I can still remember thinking there were a lot of “old” people. The flying pig was there as well. I quite like the Early Years albums - when in Pompei a couple of months ago I made sure to listen to “A saucer full of secrets” in the amphitheater..the second half that is, for those in the know.

A lot of bands I got to see but not at the right time for me.
Fleetwood Mac - 1988 No Lindsey Buckingham, replaced with Billy Burnette and Rick Vito, good show but no Lindsey Buckingham isn't how I wanted to see Fleetwood Mac, also Mick Fleetwood drum solo got me yawning.
Bruce Springsteen & the E-Street Band - 1985 By the time I got to see him and the band it was the Born In The USA time, much rather seen him on The River tour.
Page & Plant - 95 Plant's voice had long gone and everyone in the audience looked so old (me included). For some reason I thought we might get a rendition of All My Love but I was 16 years too late.
Genesis - 1987 They were still good but were promoting my least favourite Genesis album Invisible Touch.
Rolling Stones- 1999 25 years too late
Robert Plant - Mid- late 80s at the Town & Country Club, thought the support act with It Bites lead singer was better.
Just a few disappointments.

Very clear that that's it for Genesis.

That’s All surely! ;)

I saw Genesis on their previous last tour at Twickenham and they were fantastic, we were a couple of seats along from Angus Deaton and someone from breakfast TV, when he wanted past he just pushed along, no “excuse me,” completely rude, no respect.

I stupidly passed on seeing FM in 2015 or so on the Say You Will tour, my wife went with her mum and brother, she brought back some souvenirs, a programme, a T-shirt Lindsey Buckingham’s sweaty towel!

Wish You Were Here is my favourite Pink Floyd album, and Lamb Lies Down for Genesis. The mid seventies, what a time to be alive for music. Shame I wasn’t born until the early eighties

Worst gig I saw was Bowie's Serious Moonlight at MK bowl. It was terrible. Never saw him again :(

Saw Mac with Buckingham in about 2015 :)

About 20 years ago I bought my mate a cd of a live show of The Rise And Fall OZS tour, I gave it a spin beforehand, it was atrocious, I felt embarrassed giving it to him as a birthday present. Saying all that there’s a clip on YouTube of him performing Young Americans live on the Dick Cavett Show from the mid 70s that’s brilliant, helped out with David Sanborn on sax and Luther Vandross on backing.
