Best live show you ever attended.... and why?

Hmmm, have seen quite a few great shows over the years, but one that stands out was in 1983, I went to see the Moody Blues and I knew the bare minimum about the opening act...this guy came out on stage and started playing the guitar and it sounded like 3 guys playing...we were blown out of our seats...I left a fan for life...his name was Stevie Ray Vaughan.

The Flaming Lips, Pukkelpop 2010. They had a giant semi circle screen at the back of the stage. The show started with the screen showing a dancing naked girl in saturated colors.

After a while, the girl spread her legs, and shows her vagina, with all kinds of psychedelic colours fluctuating around it. The camera zoomed in on it, then a door opened in the centre of the psychedelic vagina, the band members came out of the door and walked from the middle of the screen, down some stairs to the stage. Next thing that happens is they start playing an intro tune while the singer is floating on the heads of the audience inside a giant transparent ball .

After that, they start the next song, and two big canons at the sides of the stage start shooting confetti in the air, and suddenly giant bright colored balloons float and bounce above the audience. Somewhere in the show, the singer had two enormous hands which he wore like gloves, with green laser beams coming out of the palms. He pointed those beams at two mirror balls above the stage, and the beams scattered all over the place.

I also remember smoke machines, a man in a gorilla suit, and really awesome visuals on the screen. And the wonderful thing was that none of that got in the way of the music. Their extravagant show and their music reinforced each other.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
