I would like to have seen Queen.

Did you hear that Brian May earned his PhD in Astrophysics last year?

 

I have a friend that saw the Black Sabbath/Blue Oyster Cult tour when we were teenagers..That was with Dio singing right? Saw him on his own in 1984..

and I saw Sabbath in 1983 but with Ian Gillan from Deep Purple singing

 

You probably heard the show well enough!
Interesting news about Brian May.
The Stones also played in Toronto in 2003.
I would have liked to have seen Queen in 1976.

I would add Judas Priest in 1986, damn fine show.

 

and Ted Nugent was opening for Kiss when I saw them in 2000

and I saw the Ramones at a free concert in a park in Albany NY in 1996 where about 10,000 people showed up..Not a bad turnout for them!

 

none of you will have heard of these bands, but...

There was this one time when a bunch of Herald Angels got together and sang. Man that was cool!

[/FONT]LONDON (AP)—Guitarist and songwriter Brian May has completed his doctorate in astrophysics—three decades after he put academia on hold to form the rock group Queen.
The rocker was awarded his qualification Thursday by London's Imperial College and said submitting his thesis, "Radial Velocities in the Zodiacal Dust Cloud," to supervisors was as nerve-racking as any stadium gig.
"I'm feeling rather joyful. I cannot tell you how much of a weight off the mind it is," May said late Thursday.
May was an astrophysics student at Imperial College when he joined Freddie Mercury and Roger Taylor to form Queen in 1970, but dropped his doctorate as the glam rock band became successful. Queen became one of Britain's biggest music groups in the 1970s, with hits including "Bohemian Rhapsody" and "We Will Rock You."
Following Mercury's 1991 death, May produced two solo albums, the latest of which, "Another World" appeared in 1998.
But the guitarist continued to pursue his out-of-this-world interests—and last year co-authored a book titled "Bang! The Complete History of the Universe."
He told reporters Thursday that handing over his completed thesis—a 48,000 word study which seeks to prove planets and dust clouds in our solar system orbit in the same direction—and facing examiners for a review of his work was a tough challenge.
"It was a bit nerve-racking walking into the room, but once we got going it was fascinating," May said. "There's always that feeling they could ask that big question that could sink you, but luckily they didn't."
May will be formally presented with his doctorate next May at a ceremony at London's Royal Albert Hall.
