Is there one band/artist you really wish you'd seen?

[Albumen]

Cardiacs. From what I've seen on youtube they looked and sounded amazing.

They were and they were. In all their line ups. Get well soon Tim.

 

[Lankyseagull]

Artist: Johnny Cash (in his prime)

Group: Another vote for Queen.

 

[Brownstuff]

The showman Freddie Mercury

Nirvana

 

[Razzoo]

I'm gutted about Tim. Hope he makes a recovery too. Such an underrated band

 

[One Teddy Maybank]

Queen

 

[Frutos]

Queen, specifically the show on their Live At Wembley 86 DVD.

Such a massive crowd yet Freddie had them eating from the palm of his hand. Charisma, presence, vocal talent...he had it all and that show the whole band was on top form. Must have been an awesome experience to see a band like that at such a peak.

 

[Cosmic Joker]

Nirvana, had tickets for them at Brixton for the following month from when Kurt died.
Johnny Cash
Only got into the Smiths a couple of years after they split.
Went to see the Groundhogs at Leicester Princess Charlotte on the same night in 1989 that the Stone Roses were playing at the University (or De Montford Hall, I forget which). The Groundhogs were great but was hardly a rare opportunity to see them or an excitable crowd. Have no interest in reformed Roses though, some things belong to their time.

 

[Norman Potting]

Jeff Healey died before I managed to see him.

Anyone else regret missing out on a particular live act?

Dr Feelgood original lineup.

 

[KJP]

Queen by far, then Dire Straits

[Raleigh Chopper]

T Rex

elvis..........seen some videos of his live perfomances and he was bloody incredible
the specials (original line up).....saw them at the brighton centre last year, but would love to see them with dammers....still "possible" but not likely...also i believe roddy has left as well?
the clash
the smiths....again, "possible" but can't see it happening...and to be honest if it did happen it would most likely be a vanity project for morrissey
joy division.......can't picture them being anything other than incredible
johnny cash
beastie boys....
