Otis Reading with Booker T and the MG's, and The Marquees at The Queens Hall 1967 the place was heaving. Joe Cocker at Mark Altman's Ballroom on Great George Street in 1966 great gig, blew everyone away. Carl Perkins, Screamin' Jay Hawkins, Them (Gloria), Memphis Slim, John Lee Hooker, Little Walter and lots of others all at the Three Coins on Mill Hill in the early sixties. No booze in the club but Yate's Wine Lodge just around the corner, happy days.

GRAHAM HART LEEDS philip lynott was the greatest ever rocker on the planet and nobody has ever come close LEEDS QUEENS HALL 1980

Mark Davis
How about the Michael Jackson Bad Tour in 1988? Performed in front of a sellout 90,000 people. IO can't believe this hasn't been mentioned.

rob

phil metcalfe
simple minds(live at roundhay park 1989)...awesome live performance with great support featuring...all about eve. still my favourite live gig of all time! and definately worth a mention!

Neil Mitchell
Between June 1973 and December 1978 I saw these bands in Leeds (many at the University)....DAVID BOWIE, LYNYRD SKYNYRD, THIN LIZZY, SANTANA, RORY GALLAGHER, HUEY LEWIS (under the name CLOVER), NILS LOFGREN, LINDISFARNE, DIRE STRAITS, CHIEFTAINS, JOHN MARTYN, BUDGIE etc

Neil Mitchell
an little-known Lynyrd Skynyrd played Leeds Univ in 1976 and then returned to the same venue a year later, to a phenominal reception, played Alabama & Freebird etc at both gigs. Amazing!

Chris C
What? No mention of The Sisters Of Mercy or The Mission! Go back and think again Mr List compiler.

Gary Tebbutt
Edgar Broughton Band Queens Hall 1970? Out demons out!

MARK ROBINSON
MOTORHEAD @ LEEDS QUEENS HALL 1981.The gig was recorded and part of it was included on the bands first # 1 album 'no sleep till hammersmith' My first ever gig, i was 12 years old at the time and still to this day i miss the good old days of the queens hall ( I CANT FIND ANY PICTURES OF THE BUILDING ANYONE GOT ANY?).Whats in its place now a gravel car park!!! what a waste of a good rock & punk venue! When will Leeds city council learn?! p.s. Why couldnt we of had the stones back at roundhay this year instead of Mr 'ive no talent' williams.Bring back the 80's this town has no soul anymore,just a load of trendy wine bars & silly trendy shops (whats in the duchess of yorks place?!) a silly trendy shop! Do we nead a concert venue YES!!!!!

Roy Chaplin
The late great Rory Gallagher at the Uni in the mid 70's. Now that guy could play guitar.

Hilary Robinson
Elton John @ Leeds University 1972 just as 'Don't Shoot Me' albumn came out. I arranged a coach trip from Bretton Hall College. It cost us 2 quid each including bus fares!! He was magic!

Zunaira Durrani
Leeds: We braved the rain for the one and only Bryan Adams live at Millennium Square, July 19, 2002.

Steve M.
The Stone Roses at Leeds Polytechnic in June 1989, supported by local boys The Bridewell Taxis was one of my favorite gigs of all time. The Roses had put on a great show just a couple of months earlier at the Warehouse, but the return leg lifted the roof off the poly.

Mark Young
The great cult-rock band, Rush. They appeared at The Queens Hall in 1980. I was too young to go but my mates' older brothers were talking about the experience for weeks after. This is how I learnt what the word "incredible" meant.

Mrs Michelle Wilder
I saw the Beatles at the Odeon Leeds in 1964, I was 14 at the time, but I have never forgotten it. The tickets were like gold and my friend and I were very lucky to get them. We couldnt hear a thing we all just screamed

barry barker
does anyone remember 'the three coins club' upper mill hill early to mid sixties.

adam
Hey you guys missed off Michael Jackson's BAD Tour Concert from the list the date is - 29th August 1988... Michael's birthday!

Graham
The best Yorkshire Gigs I've been to:- Stones 25/07/82 Radiohaed, circa Nov '98 at the Dome Donny, Embrace in the millenium square this year!!! The Carling weekend 2000 was on the whole fantastic, but Eminem in 2001 was rubbish!

Martin Wrigley
Queens Hall 1979 The Jam supported by The Piranhas Packed out - Very hot & sweaty - What a gig!!

Robin C
I'm amazed that nobody has mentioned David Bowie Aladdin sane tour 1973 at Leeds Rollarena (used to be on Kirkstall Rd)> Last gig before Hammersmith!

Jacksonfan

Andy Goldsworthy
CREAM - December 67, just a few weeks after Disraeli Gears was released and at their zenith - Leeds University - Ticket 8/6d - Absolutely heaving, had to stand on a table to be able see anything. Truly phenomenal

Greg Ferguson

bruce springsteen at roundhay park leeds

Lyndon Hill
I saw the Beatles LIVE on the stage at the Odean Cinema in Leeds in, I think, 1963. Ps I couldn't hear them though. Susan Maughan and I think Freddy and the Dreamers were on the same bill. John Pertwee was the master of ceremonies, was he BLUE!

Don Tate
Ramones Leeds Uni Jan 26 1980. Ably supported by The Boys. What a fantastic night of punk! I must have lost two stone through sweat. Mention also to Roger McGuinn at Leeds Varieties a couple of years ago. A masterful solo performance so good you would have thought he had the rest of The Byrds with him.

Dave
I was at the Radiohead gig at the T&C - 01/11/1995 for the Bends tour, and it is in my top 10 gigs. They were absolutly awsome that night, playing the entire Bends album along with some old classics ! I had some brilliant nights at the T&C and was gutted when it shut so Leeds could have yet another trendy wine bar.

john walker

Mike Peacock
I'm not sure of the year, late sixties probly. At the Odeon Theatre Leeds, Rolling Stones, Yardbirds, Ike and Tina Turner, Peter Jay and the Blue Jays. Those where the days, was on holiday from the States visiting the old home town.

Robin
be sure to have a look at everyone that played at Leeds University Union there is a list at its website

Conrad
Springsteen, Roundhay Park, Leeds, 07/07/85. 4 hours of genius, the only performer who could get 100,000 people to sing along but also to shut up at his command. The Boss!!!!!!

Lynne A
U2, Leeds (Roundhay Park) '92 or '93 can't remember. Zoo TV Tour. This gig needs to be included, I was there and it was amazing. Also if I remember correctly, didn't Genesis also play Roundhay Park back in the 80's?

Peter from Harrogate
Surely two massive shows by GENESIS at Roundhay Park warrant a mention . . ?

David Taylor
Where is the Genesis gig at Rounday Park from 1992

Tony S
Michael Jackson!! i could hear it 7 miles away!!

Pam Johnson
You've missed out the best performer of all - David Bowie played at the old Rollerena (now YTV studios) in - I think 1973 - I queued overnight for tickets.

Wayne Birthwright
UB40 @ Leeds University 1980 First class performers Solid bass with great songs
