Which performer would you have loved to have seen live, but didn't, and can't now?

[Everest]

George Best and Tommy Cooper.


But doing what, I'm not sure.

 

[Hiney]

Euugh! Sitting in an almighty bog with half a million middle-class white American hippies with no food or sanitation, fairly sure in the knowledge that dysentry and cholera are moving around. No, ta.

Each to their own, I s'pose.

Good point

I'll stick with the DVD.

 

[Zed Seagull]

Andy Pandy, Paul Daniels and Shergar.

 

[Jello]

A few for me The Jam, Doors, Who and Bob Marley.

 

[Beach Hut]

John Lennon

Ditto

 

[Charles 'Charley' Charles]

Would love to of seen the Rat Pack at Sands Casino, just the ultimate in cool. Agree with the Clash as well though. Comedy wise would have to be Tommy Cooper or Bill Hicks and sports wise either 1983 or 1966 but can you guess what events those were?

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

Without question.

But not bigger than Cheeky 'After a tip off from a roadie I waited outside the 'Tommy' aftershow party in NYC in 1989 until 4am and chatted to both Townshend and Entwistle' Monkey

 

[sams dad]

Marvin Gaye

 

[Biscuit]

I've seen Ringo and McCartney play together so I count that as seeing the Beatles live.



Straws I know...

 

[Withdean Wanderer]

AC/DC with Bon Scott

 

[Eddie the Seagull]

Freddie Mercury - 'Nuff said............

 

[fatboy]

Freddie Mercury.

But you can see anyone if you look hard enough.

 

[Withdean Wanderer]

Freddie Mercury.

There's a point, Queen with Freddie must have been pretty spectacular

 

[dcseagull]

Tim Buckley

 

[BUTTERBALL]

Kurt Cobain and Nirvana live - what an absolute tragic waste dead at 27 whilst producing brilliant music.

 

[Alby]

Duncan Edwards

John Lennon

What is Queen without Freddie?

 

[¡Cereal Killer!]

Nirvana
Beatles
John Lennon
George Harrison
Bob Marley
Blink 182

 

[Superphil]

Led Zeppelin

 

[Biscuit]

What is Queen without Freddie?

Queen won't ever get that 'edge' that Mercury gave them back. But they have Ex Free front man (and Albion Legend?) Paul Rodgers heading the group and hes pretty damned good apparently.

Although 'Pretty damned good isn't anywhere near Mercury's standard'.
