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."

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.
Pink Floyd - Pulse
20 October 1994

I was almost 4 but at an early age I developed a love for Pink Floyd. I began to follow them from city to city at the age of 5 years only realizing that this masterpiece had been 1 year prior. What a shame.
But seriously - I would go back as my adult self and see this concert. My light is still flashing.
Janis Joplin singing Ball and Chain at Monterey Pop.  If you haven't watched the video on YouTube, I consider it the single greatest female rock performance of all time and it gives me chills every time I watch.  Look for Momma Cass's gobsmacked face during the performance.
