[seagull_special]

Tom Waits and David Bowie would top my list and Springsteen would be up there. Looking forward to seeing Sting next week in Abu Dhabi!

 

[GT49er]

Joe Jackson

Would also like to see Genesis - the original line-up with Peter Gabriel (I think they're all still alive, so meet the criteria for this thread).

 

[Twizzle]

Of the dead-uns it has to be Jimi, then The Yardbirds with Keith Relf (the Beck & Page lineup).

Right now I'd enjoy Joe Bonamassa or the latest Yes lineup, as their last lp is very good!
My next gig though is rather interesting... the 50 year anniversary of The Yardbirds, with all former members invited. hmmm, who might show up for this one? Not EC, as he is touring the US, but even if the recent members show only, I know it'll be worthwhile!

The first time i saw Genesis they were 3rd on the bill at Top Rank Suite.
They got banned that night for using flash flares for 'Return of the Giant Hogweed'.
Careless twats. Never seen them sans Gabriel (not interested either).

Don't really give a shit, but it is good to know you can read though. Everyone can sleep easy now.

:rollseyes:

 

[Super Steve Earle]

Bands with dead people: Beatles, Stones with Brian, Buffalo Springfield, Byrds on a good night.
No longer gigging: Garth Brooks with a big stadium type show at the O2
Still gigging, seen before but tickets a bit pricey now:Leonard Cohen, Willie Nelson
Keen to see as my hot new faves: Dawes
Love to see again: Brad Paisley (Thanks again for the O2 tip Frutos-Mrs Earle thought her best gig ever).

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

I somehow always managed to miss seeing The Cure. Seen just about everybody else I ever wanted to see.

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

Steve Hillage.

 

[getz]

Carly Simon.Not a singer to do concerts.

 

[Conkers]

R.E.M

 

[Seagull on the wing]

John Lennon....bought him a pint in Hamburg when he was broke.....thought he would have bought one back.....

 

[The Modfather]

Seeing as names of the deceased are being banded about, I will go with The Small Faces as the band I would have loved to have seen.

Not seen them either- they are into playing 30 song plus sets at the moment so would be good to catch them live. Playing mainly festivals though.
