cjscjs Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 I Googled Marillion - see that Fish has the same birthday as me - 25th April! In about November/December 84 Marillion played Hammersmith Odeon on four consecutive nights. At the time the girl who I was going out with, who incidentally 30 years later is my wife of 28 years, was working for EMI, Marillions record label at the time. We went every night. I can still remember those gigs as if it were yesterday. Totally awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the Misplaced Childhood tour which was a year later,we saw them every night at Hammersmith (Jan 86) and also at Brixton Academy 3 weeks earlier. Saw Scorpions at the Festhalle in Frankfurt November 84. This was long before Wind of Change was released (it's about the fall of communism and the Berlin wall) which I think was about 91/92. The Moment of Glory tour was much more recent about 2001. Unfortunately we never saw any of those gigs, the two nights in Hannover with the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra were the best. The conductor, Christian Kolonovits is a really cool guy, not like your average idea of an orchestra conductor. Even all these years later whenever I hear that song it still gives me goose bumps.

Nikey Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Layla, Derek and the Dominoes.Comfortably Numb (pulse) Pink Floyd. Wind Of Change (with Berlin Philharmonic, moment of glory) Scorpions. Kayleigh Marillion. Jigsaw Marillion. Five is not enough I can think of at least a hundred. I don't know jigsaw but judging by your other 4 songs I'm definitely going to listen to it!

MARYROSE02 Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I usually try and play a couple of the choices, so playing The Pearl Fishers' Duet now. I am not too familiar with opera, other than the bits that 'stray' into the pop charts! And now, Time To Say Goodbye with Sarah Brightman. (Much more 'poppy?)
