I think around 1990 Deep Purple decided to play a little unscheduled warm up show at Hammerjacks in Baltimore, MD. Pretty small venue and it was like being a fly on the wall in an intimate rehearsal with Ian Gillan sitting on a bar stool wearing shorts, Ritchie Blackmore still using his Echoplex, Roger Glover on bass and Ian Paice on drums. It felt like I got a living room seat with some rock legends and no one knew this was going to happen until around 4pm that day when a local radio station made the announcement and we immediately hustled to get in line. I was barely old enough to get in.
What is the most memorable concert that you had attended so far?

I do not go to concert very often, maybe once or twice a year.
I listen to music mostly through my audio system as much as 4 hours a day.
The most memorable concert that I had attended is the solo recital by Nathan Milstein held at Auditorium of UC Berkely on 1983.
He is one of the virtuoso violinist of the 20th century.
But he was 79 when he played at the recital on 1983.
When he played Partita by Bach, it was not his best.
Although he showed some of his skills, he could not keep up with the fast tempo as much as I wanted.
But as soon as he started playing "
César Franck, Violin Sonata in A Major.
".
I just marveled at the sweet sound of violin.
I could realize why he is one of the virtuoso violinist of the 20th century.
He died on 1992 so it is now impossible to attend his live recital again.
How about you ladies and gentlemen?
