Peter Green, Cheltenham Town Hall, mid 90s. PG just stood there really, didn't seem to play the solos. I knew he wasn't the full shilling, but expected him to make at least an effort.
Foo Fighters, T In The Park, late 90s. Playing a big festival is a challenge, and the Food rose to the occasion by standing stock still throughout their set. That's showbiz. They were followed by Black Grape, who gave a great performance.
Jaco Pastorius, North Sea Jazz Festival, early 80s. Joined by Mike Stern on guitar, played the dreariest heavy metal.
An Opal Evening, Shaw Theatre, London, late 80s. Opal was Eno's label at the time, but Brian wasn't on the bill. However brother Roger was, as was Harold Budd. I wasn't expecting a hard-working evening, but they played the most insipid twaddle. It was the same night as the King's Cross fire, so when I left the venue Euston Road was a sea of people, putting my disgruntlement in perspective.
