Mine = August 7, 1971 Pauley Pavilion - Zappa and the Mothers perform Billy The Mountain. Hearing it is one thing but seeing it would be another ball of wax entirely!

“Et tu, Brute?” Who was the opening act, The Rolling Stones?
I've always suspected Keith may have been in the crowd as an observer, and this would be the perfect opportunity to find out.
Tough call. Probably between the 50s and 70s. Jazz was really hip and pioneers were busy at work blazing trails for what would become jazz as we know it.
My house, last night around 11 PM.
I lost my keys and I can't find them

Yeah Monk and The Village Gate would be another stop for me.
Good one!My house, last night around 11 PM.

Me and $10,000 would travel back to when Blackberry/RIM IPO’d. Next stop, the year B.B./RIM peaked and cash out! Repeat a few times and then land in 1983 so I could do all that over again but with some pocket change this time!
Brilliant idea. Now I found a way to afford an Alembic series 1 bass.
Twisted Wheel Club, Manchester, UK, autumn, 1966. This new band with John Mayall’s old guitarist and the former Graham Bond rhythm section is playing the midlands for the first time. Rumour has it that Chas Chandler is bringing a rhythm and blues guitarist that he just flew over from America so that he might be able to sit in. I’m sure Slowhand can show him a thing or two.
America in the 1950s... March 1951 in Memphis for the recording of "Rocket 88"... March 1952 in Cleveland for the Moondog Coronation Ball... July 1954 in Memphis at the Overton Park Shell for Elvis Presley's first concert... September 1956 in Tupelo, Mississippi for the little shindig shown below. Of course, the four decades that would follow were just packed full of the best years for popular music (and television... and film... and sports)... lots of time machine-stoppable moments for sure.
Sitting in the mud, among the few to catch Hendrix’s set at Woodstock. Or Sly’s set, as close to the stage as possible.
Is this “fly on the wall” time machine or “I have to be careful not to eff up the space/time thing because I’m actually here” time machine?

50's NYC to watch Mingus play as often as possible.
Sunday February 4, 2018 to bet my life savings on the Philadelphia Eagles.
Go see Roy Orbison live or Pink Floyd during the Animals tour
We do Time Machine, the first stop is on a B I believe, after a funky groove guitar part. Then it repeats, the guitar does a cool walk down thing, and your off to the races. Not many in the crowd know it but I love playing it cause I dig GFR & Mel's bass, it's a fun song to play.
