Maybe an unpopular opinion… but I think David Coverdale was always a much better singer than Gillan and Plant.

He blew them both away.

Kylie Minogue - I Should Be So Lucky (AC/DC-style Hard Rock Version) - N...

Taking Kylie's original lead vocal, and recording a new backing track on GarageBand (no generative AI used whatsoever), I tried to imagine how it might have sounded if the princess of pop had rejected SAW's Hi-NRG pop in favour of some tradition Aussie hard rock!

20 Years Ago: Guns N' Roses Reunited with Izzy Stradlin at Hammerstein Ballroom (NYC)

20 years ago, Guns N' Roses concluded their four night stint at the Hammerstein Ballroom in NYC. The fact I got to see Axl Rose and his new GN'R lineup in such an intimate venue was mind blowing enough (and remember - Axl Rose in 2006 was on fire), but what makes this show an all-time incredible moment was the fact Izzy Stradlin joined them onstage to play a handful of songs - marking the first time since 1991 Axl and Izzy shared a stage together. Seeing them tear through "Think About You" is still a "pinch me" moment that I still ask "Did I seriously see that?!"

What's your favorite "pinch me" moment from a concert you've experienced? Share in the comments below, and stay tuned for more things to come from this space (including stories from concerts like this)!
