Saw them in the spring of 1971, before they went all Joker and Space Cowboy, and were still first looking at the purse. Does that count?

As for me, I like fireworks, so I'd pick The Big Bang . . . even if the fundamentalists here don't think that's an event in history, and thus does not count.

I'm gonna go with Shilala on this one. A video record of some of the key events would go a LONG ways towards reducing some world friction. Did he? Didn't he?

I think you may be talking about Steve Miller Band.

Well, I am getting old. But no, I did see J. Geils in '71. And like Steve Miller, they went downhill fast after 2 or 3 albums.

I would have to say the American revolution. I feel like this country has fallen away from the pure ideas that where fought for. That an they made awesome bacon from what my grandpa told me.

To be fair I think this is purely for your own satisfaction, enjoyment, curiosity, etc., you can't record it, show other people, make money off of it, this is just for yourself. You witness whatever it is and that's that.

So no you can't record Mila in the shower

Ok. Then I shall record Amber Heard in the shower!

But seriously, I would want to go back and see Queen's Live Aid performance in person. Watching the recordings still gives me goosebumps.
