In fact I can't call it "Rock" history, but to me, it's the moment when the Pistols signed for a record deal at the front of Buckingham Palace. "Hello EMI, Good bye A&M".

OP how did you forget Knebworth? And I'm talking about Oasis, not Robbie Williams.

Sledgehammer is the most played video in MTVs history. That has gotta mean something!

Spike Island, by all accounts, was a terrible gig. Noel himself said so in that the sound was lost in the high winds coming off the Mersey, the band themselves were uninterested and John Harris's account of the crowd and general atmosphere is pretty disparaging to say the least.

Bit on the heavy side, but Dimebag Darrel(l)'s death at that fucking idiot who took Phil seriously.

Yeah I've heard the same. I decided to mention it since it was probably the biggest event in Madchester scene.

Not sure if this is only for live moments but Nick McCabe's guitar skyrocketing through the atomsphere at the 1:35 mark of 'Star Sail' blew me away the first time I heard it. Didn't even know a guitar could sound like that.
Also, this moment is basically stretched out by 6 minutes on 'Reprise'. Unreal guitar work.

Yeah it was about getting high and enjoying BEING THERE. As Noel said, the Stone Roses didn't have to play a note. It's similar to Oasis at Knebwroth; many people were there because it was a historic moment. And I just wanna add Blur at Hyde Park...

If the music ain't there, neither is the greatness.

Elvis walking into Sun Studio for the first time.
Or when the Pistols played Manchester in 1976, dubbed the gig that changed the world.
