best band of the 80s live right now

[docicu3]

The concerts of the 80's for me started with "The No Nukes" shows in Madison Square with Bruce and E Street......CSNY,Jackson Browne/Bonnie Rait/Doobies.

The Dead in San Fran.....

Bob Dylan and the Band in Boston Garden

U2 at UMASS at the blue wall the week before Elvis is watching the detectives at the fine art center.

Pink Floyd wishing you were here with the PIG....

Clapton after his own ride on a horse in New York

Allman Bro's play with the Eagles for the American Indian Fondation

Meatloaf is in Paradise in the back of a chevy with Ellen Foley

Elton John before the whole thing went to his head

Paul/Wings Springfield Mass , John in New York, Ringo and the all stars, George and krishna's doing the 3 record box set.

Live Aid 1 sitting in Wembley in the pooring rain.....and paying for the privlege

Some were great, others good and a few actually bad but they all left memories of a youth well spent during a decade of confusion and contentment.
God Bless the 1980's we'll never see drugs like that again....

I've only seen a few 80's bands live (hell I was born in 1980, LOL), but my fave was Journey. (No surprise there, right?)

I saw Survivor in Galveston a few years ago and they put on a good show too.

That's a great great list...I saw some but far from all!

While I think about it...I should mention one of the best and certainly oldest rock band going, Golden Earring was formed in 1961 and the guys still are together and play several concerts a week to this day...only two huge hits in the States, Radar Love and Twilight Zone but they are legends in Europe!
