Have to agree with you on Queen. One of my all time favourite groups. Unfortunately I didnt get to see them live. (Had the chance to at Maine Road in '86), but didnt take the offer up. Freddie, could set the audience alight with his voice.
I have seen Meatloaf 3 times, and each time, it has been a awesome experience, 1st time was at Wembley when he collapsed on stage.
2nd time was in Mcr at the MEN on the same tour. (The 1st gig was 'postponed' due to his illness, the 2nd date I couldnt go to, as I was due to be in the states at the time), so I went to the ticket office at the MEN, told the lady there my plight.. said, all I would like is 1 ticket, I dont care where in the arena I am.. she said, how would you like to be at the front??.. I snapped her hands off lol. Block B, row A, seat 3. IE middle of the stage front, front row!!, 6' away from the great guy all night. I was hoarse, deaf, and could hardly move the following day!.
Last time, was the 3 bats tour. Again sat on the floor, but quite a few rows back this time.
Also saw 'The Boss' aka Bruce Springsteen at Old Trafford Cricket Ground a good few years back. This time, I was stood in the middle, but it was a awesome gig.
