Gazza Theres not much point me mentioning the likes of Elvis (as he never performed outside North america) or the Beatles, Doors,Hendrix etc as they were all before my time.

If i'm being realistic, I'll just mention acts from my era that I could have seen but didnt and never will get the chance to. Not much point going back any earlier than about 1978.

Frank Sinatra
Johnny Cash
Led Zeppelin
Bob Marley & The Wailers

Bands I HAVE seen but wished I'd seen them when I could have done so earlier when I think they were better.

Prince - Sign o' the times or Lovesexy tours (saw him in '92)
The Clash - (saw them in'84)
The Who - great show when I saw them at Hyde Park in '96 performing "Quadrophenia" but wish i could have seen them before.
David Bowie (saw him in'83 and '87)
Dylan - Europe '78.(seen him about 25 times since 1984 though, so cant complain)

People I havent seen yet as I wasnt "tuned in" in time or have missed them due to various reasons but intend to see them at some point :

Lucinda Williams
Brian Wilson
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Ry Cooder
John Hiatt

I would like to see/hear Al Green sing "live" at some point. Even if it means going to his church in Memphis to hear him!

M.O.W.A.T. I was talking to my parents the other night and they told me that they saw Johnny Cash back in the '70s. My dad told me that June Carter Cash was supposed to open for him but she was sick so he played over 2+ hours that night. I told them how lucky they were and that I wish they had taken me instead of sticking me with a babysitter.
