andrewduckerChipuni asked if "If you could travel back in time and see any historical event (24 hours only), what event would it be?"
I've actually thought about this a lot (although not in a few years).
I'm not terribly interested in history - or rather, I'm interested in the general flow of history, but very few individual events hold any meaning for me - it's more the general texture that's appealing.
I wouldn't want to go and see something just to say "I was there when X happened, how cool am I?" and I assume that I'm not going to be allowed to change things, so it's going to have to be an experience I could enjoy in and of itself.
Which leaves one of two events:
U2, live in Sydney for the Zoo TV tour.
Pink Floyd, The Wall tour (not sure which venue).
I get shivers thinking about either one.

But yes, I'd love to know why.
