If you had access to a time machine, what concerts would you go back to see?


2020 was the first year of my adult life that I did not attend any concerts. I'm sure that I'm not alone in this unfortunate situation. So, this got me thinking about both the concerts that I "missed" (could've gone, but something went wrong) or concerts I "wished I'd had the chance to see."

Plus, I thought this would be a good bookend to the ongoing (and excellent) thread about "the worst concert you ever saw."

Concerts I would revisit.

Percy Sledge free concert in Damrosch Park 1996.

Unknown (to me) guest at the Mozart Cafe getting up from his table and friends and playing the piano while friends were cheering and teasing him. He was not a beginner, that is for sure.

Of course, there are more, but these were out of this world.


In the order of desirability:

Elvis anytime, Aloha from Hawaii if I get to pick.

An der schönen, blauen Donau, February 15, 1867

Lou Reed Rock’n’Roll Animal concerts at the Academy of Music.
