Pratt Boy Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 What bands or acts did you miss that you wish you seen. Either you were too young, not born yet or just did not go. I finally saw RUSH, so I can scratch them off my list. I wish I had seen Led Zeppelin, Cream and Pink Floyd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huck Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 Led Zeppelin - Too young (just) Rush - Only got back into them last October and am I back into them! Paul Weller - Because I am stupid. Lynyrd Skynyrd - Played Manchester about 3 years ago only 8 miles from where I live. I am stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me... The Who in early 70's Pink Floyd in 70's Jimi Hendrix Led Zeppelin before 2002 (my first time was VT tour) Black Sabbath in their heyday (when Ozzy was somewhat semi-sober) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimi Hendrix said he was a better guitar than himself. They were thinking of doing some music together and Kath was just about to do some solo stuff in the studio I believe the day after his death. Plus he was a "great singer" ROCK ON TERRY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phoenix Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 I saw Pink Flyod on their last tour for "The division Bell". What an evening. But I would love to have a chance to see those bands live: Queen Fields of the Nephilim (before their split in 91) Helmet (before the split) Helloween (on the Keepers Tours) Theatre of Tragedy (with Liv Kristine) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
launchpad67a Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 Concerts I wish I saw huh? Well I've seen just about every band that I have ever wanted to, except: *The Beatles *Jimi Hendrix *Elvis That's really all there is. I've been lucky enough to see all my favorite bands at some time during my life. Just an example: Rush=26 times Floyd=12 times Van Halen=10 times The Who=10 times The Dead=16 times The Stones=8 times and...about 500 other groups. 754 concerts in all. It's a trick how I was still able to play gigs 4-5 nights a week! (saw most of my shows when I was between 15-24 yrs old) Live rock concerts, today, are a thing of beauty! Support Local Music!!!!!!!!

While I've been lucky over the years, my feelings towards you Mike are oscillating between open-mouthed admiration and pathological jealousy. I've seen Queen with Freddie, Floyd (without Roger, unfortunately), U2 several times (including a local college gig in 1980 before Boy was released), and last year, finally, Rush. Of bands still on the road, the only one I haven't seen that I'd like to have done is funnily enough AC/DC. The rumour was they were playing Slane Castle this year, but instead it's a rap fest with Eminem, 50 Cent, Obie Trice and a cast of thousands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sullysue Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 I had the chance to see Stevie Ray Vaughn the summer of 1990. I had to work and missed it. Two months later he was killed in a hellicopter crash. My heart still hurts from missing that concert. SRV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I first saw him (1987), I was into metal at the time. (Maiden, Priest, Sabbath, etc.) My friends had a extra ticket and asked me to go. I had never heard of him before, but I said "What the hell, a concert is a concert." The next day I bought his albums and was into the blues. He could literally put goose bumps on your arms when he played live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dweezil Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 I wish I'd seen JA while they were still together. I would go to see DJ Peretz if I had the chance. Problem is, crowds freak me out too much to go anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
