The The in Boston at the Paradise, circa 1987. It was their first time in the U.S. and they had been playing big stadiums in Europe. Since few in the U.S. had heard of them at this point, the promoter only booked 3 shows, LA, Boston, and NY, all in small clubs. They had this massive sound system that, at the Paradise, filled a good portion of the room. There were maybe 400 of us there. They opened with Giant, the repeating bass line at the beginning going on for 10-15 minutes before they walked out. Amazing and overwhelming show.
What is the most memorable concert that you had attended so far?

I do not go to concert very often, maybe once or twice a year.
I listen to music mostly through my audio system as much as 4 hours a day.
The most memorable concert that I had attended is the solo recital by Nathan Milstein held at Auditorium of UC Berkely on 1983.
He is one of the virtuoso violinist of the 20th century.
But he was 79 when he played at the recital on 1983.
When he played Partita by Bach, it was not his best.
Although he showed some of his skills, he could not keep up with the fast tempo as much as I wanted.
But as soon as he started playing "
César Franck, Violin Sonata in A Major.
".
I just marveled at the sweet sound of violin.
I could realize why he is one of the virtuoso violinist of the 20th century.
He died on 1992 so it is now impossible to attend his live recital again.
How about you ladies and gentlemen?
