Surely they would!
But .. what would Coldplay be doing at an Iron Maiden concert, and standing in front of Maiden fans in the first place?
Why would the Maiden fans be watching them?
All very f*cked up... ;)
Shock horror, we all like different kinds of music and, to a lesser or greater degree, some cannot deal with that concept!
For whatever reason.
And their piss doth boil !
There is plenty of music to go 'round, take your pick and bollocks to anybody else.
Nirvana! Another terminally over-rated band! what the feck was Cobain singing/yelling about? Was he on about taking his mum shopping, going to the corner shop to buy 20 fags, or what? Nevermind has to be one of the worst album I have ever purchased. All loud, shouty boring stuff
I've been to live shows from 1962 to now and I've seen many of the greats - solo artists and groups. I saw Jerry Lee and Chuck and Little Richard - Ritchie Blackmore with the Savages and Ginger Baker with Jack Bruce in the Graham Bond Organisation. I've recently seen Joe Bonamassa, Joe Satriani and Walter Trout. But the best music experience I ever had was seeing Gene Vincent backed by Sounds Inc.
Love Squeeze and funny you should say that. They apparently did a gig at the Llandaff Rowing Club back in the 80s and for a long time, it appeared that it might've been a dream, but through more chats, more local people, and this blessed MB, we found that it did indeed happen and there is a VHS of it out there. It was promised that it would go onto Youtube but not seen it yet.

MOTT THE HOOPLE BEST BAND EVER
I take my hat off to you sir, and salute you! You are lucky and fortune enough to have seen some of the all-time greats, but I'm sure you know that. Your record collection must be a sight to behold?
As I listen to mostly Northern Soul/Soul/Motown these days, did you ever get around to seeing any of the 60's greats live in concert?
There was one Motown package show that hit town - that has become a legend. On the bill were Stevie Wonder, Martha and the Vandellas, the Supremes, Smokey Robinson and the Miracles. Georgie Fame was added to put bums on seats - he was resident at the Pomme D'Or at Southsea on a Sunday night for months.

There was a blues caravan that came too with Muddy Waters, Sister Rosetta Sharp, Brownie Mcghee and Sonny Terry and we had Little Walter, Sugar Pie Desanto and Larry Williams at the local clubs.
Thanks for the link. The Motown Revue must have been on hell of a show. I take it, it was at the Capitol Theatre down on Queen Street, Cardiff?
Earlier this year I read Robert Gordon's excellent book on Muddy Waters: Can't Be Satisfied: The Life and Times of Muddy Waters. Well worth reading especially if you are looking to take a book away for a read on holiday.
Lastly, did you ever see the Queen of British Soul, Dusty Springfield, live in concert?
Nah I lived in Pompey as a teenager, mush. The Motown package was the last one of the tour. My mate got up on stage and boogied with the Supremes.
Thanks for the Muddy Waters shout. His re-recording of his hits is one of the heaviest blues albums out there:
Afraid I never saw Rusty...
Muddy Waters 'Hard Again', an awesome album. While the rest of the teenage hords around me in '77 were kissing punks septic arse or listening to shite disco, I was listening and enjoying this album. Thanks to my best mate at the time's older brother, who purchased it. Not heard it in full since then. Brings back happy memories of the summer of '77
