Bruce Springsteen And The E Street Band 04.07.84. at Wembley.
For the duration of the 'Born In The USA Tour', the band openend with 'Born In The USA', except for this one show, when they played 'Independence Day', then carried on with the usual set.
Nothing was said, they just did that song, then carrried on.
Pure class - never bettered, and I have seen a LOT of bands.

David Bowie at Glastonbury 2000.
There was speculation that he was not going to perform due to laryngitus so anxiety was high.
Further, for the previous 10 years he hadn't really sany many hits on the two rather lucklustre tours of the 90's.
However he came on after excellent build up from Travis and The Pet Shop Boys and blew the audience away.
Michael Eavis says his performance was and still is the best Glastonbury performance ever.

Glastonbury 2000 was brilliant but I rightly remember Pet Shop Boys were on at the same time as Leftfield on the Saturday night. On the Sunday which was ace, I saw Embrace and the Happy Mondays, rushed over to the other stage for the Beta Band and then back to the Pyramid stage for Bowie. I still prefer Leftfield from that day.
Muse and Mcr were brilliant, that was a show and a half. As for whole things go, with the atmosphere and the lighting, balloon dancers it was unique.
My fave gig of all time though was starsailor at the Bierkeller in Bristol lol or Brixton or DIngwalls. Just one of their gigs anyways.

This a difficult question, because I've been to a few fantastic shows.
Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band's recent tour was sheer brilliance - absolute musical mayhem and I hadn't enjoyed a show so much in ages.
El Pussycat's slot at Summer Sundae Weekender - marquee overflowing, everyone bopping and even crowd surfing.
Eric Delaney with the Glen Miller Orchestra last Saturday - an eighty-two-year-old who could put some of the best latter day rock drummers to shame, both in terms of his playing and his showmanship.
But I think the most memorable has to have been Preservation Hall Jazz earlier this year who, for their encore, led an audience-filled New Orleans style parade around the auditorium and onto the stage and had the entire 1000 strong audience up and dancing (and we're not talking kids here, either).
