Is there any band or singer

[Tesco in Disguise]

i would queue for as long as it took to see rage against the machine.

 

[Trufflehound]

If I could go back in time ...

I would queue up all night to buy a time machine, but probably not for any band.

Only once (The Police, when they played 12 nights at the Hammersmith Palais in 1979) have I ever missed a band in their prime and regretted not queueing up.

Otherwise I've always either been able to get a ticket, or through laziness not found out about the gig until too late anyway (in which case the time machine would have come in handy).

 

[Meade's Ball]

Rick Astley. I'd be wearing a cream polo-neck, oversized tan suit and nazistic side-parting. Hidden in my giant trousers would be a wankbomb, and one of my sleeves a plastic arm, my real one fiddling myself frenziedly until i sexually exploded and perhaps took a set of Astley fans with me.

 

[DIFFBROOK]

I have only queued all night once and that was for Live Aid. You wouldn't catch me doing it now

 

[Icy Gull]

Nick Cave
New Order
The Jam
The Smiths
Leonard Cohen
The Specials
Sugarcubes
Rolling Stones
Sly and the Family Stone
Public Enemy
Chuck Berry
Beach Boys
Apollo 440
Everything but the girl
Blondie
Portishead
Prince Buster
Lee Scratch Perry
Bob Dylan
St Etienne


Any of those, I'd gladly queue all night to see.

Do you actually LIVE on the streets?

 

[Jim D]

The Who at the Lyceum in 1973. Definitely well worth it.

 

[Buzzer]

Do you actually LIVE on the streets?

Well....In fairness, most of those are never gonna ever be gigging again and even so, not in the UK...

 

[Scotty Mac]

front row for hilary duff, so i could get a good view up her skirt

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

I have an overwhelming desire to see Ray Davies perform once before he calls it quits.

So he'd make me line up overnight.


Also Madness, been one of my fave bands all my life and never seen them live.

 

[Woodchip]

Only Pink Floyd if they got back together. Queen would be another one, but the original line up is never gonna happen.

Dream Theater I'd love to see, but not sure overnight would be an option.

Most of the other bands I want to see live I already have. However, with the marvels of the internet this queueing overnight seems to be a thing of the past.

 

[Bob!]

I would queue overnight for The Specials reunion (which may be happening in April)

 

[Jambo Seagull]

Queued overnight for the Jam at the Brighton Centre, last show.

One of my best mates was at the front of that queue. Sad bastard.

Having said that I'm annoyed I never got a ticket for that gig. Saw them twice before at the Centre and they were the bollocks.

 

[Biscuit]

McCartney. Love to see him again!

 

[Beach Hut]

I did for U2 at the NEC and Tin Machine at Wolverhampton Civic Hall

 

[Muhammad - I’m hard - Bruce Lee]

queued up overnight to get tickets for genesis and black sabbath in pompey back in the 70's

i would do again for led zep

 

[Superphil]

I did for U2 at the NEC and Tin Machine at Wolverhampton Civic Hall

Short queue I guess Beachy, Tin Machine was never a popular jaunt of his. Having said that, I thought it was OK.

 

[TWOCHOICEStom]

Two Choices

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Leftfield - should they ever reform
Sizzla - should his UK ban be lifted so he could do a secret gig at The Concorde
