Everyone has a list of bands they wish they had seen live. Which bands do you wish you had gotten to see live?

Mine are

The Grateful Dead-I passed on the chance the year before Jerry died.
The Ramones- I wasn't allowed to see them growing up and I missed their final Pittsburgh show due to weather.
Toad the Wet Sprocket-Maybe they'll tour again, they have a habit of coming out of retirement.
The Replacements-The chances of the original members coming together to do a tour any time soon are about as high as the chances of Paul McCartney and Heather Mills shaking hands.
The Jesus and Mary Chain-The brothers have collaborated with their sister on a new project, but I don't think JMC are reforming any time soon.

I know I've forgotten a few. Share yours.

Firstly I would love to see U2 in concert after that Green Day but really they're the only ones.

When I was a teenager I so desperatly wanted to see Howard Jones (LOL) and had the chance but I got in trouble for something or other and wasn't allowed to go. Oh woe was me.

I had always wanted to see Queen.

Drat to remember . Bowie was playing a venue in Cleveland (just an hour or so away) in the, I think, late 70s - I wanted to go more than badly since I was so into him and his music that it was downright frightening. Unfortunately, some 'brass' from the restaurant I worked in were expected that night and it was insisted that I run the shift (the down side of being "Mr. Trustworthy" ). I tried for two solid weeks to be a rotten, lazy, inefficient slug ~ hoping they would decide that there had to be someone better to entertain the bosses. Alas, they were onto me. I missed Bowie, that Vice President was not even partly pleasant, I was depressed for weeks. Never got the chance to see 'Ziggy Stardust' again, either...

Ouch, Gats. I would have loved to have seen Mr. Stardust in his heyday.

I would have loved to have seen The Beatles, although all that screaming might have ruined it for me. I also would have liked to see Queen live.

Is this for bands that can't possibly reunite, can reunite or are still togather?

Can't possibly reunite: The Beatles, Maddox Brothers & Rose and some jazz bands whose members are no longer with us.

I'll have to think on the others.

My two cousins saw the Beatles when they [ the cousins ] still lived in England during the early '60's - I have never recovered from the unfairness of things, either.

I have seen Johnny Cash during my lifetime, but not in performance. Both times he was making an appearance for charity.

This is easy for me, I wish I had seen the original Lynard Skynard

To make two of you jealous. I've seen Pink Floyd and U2, although I'm sad to say I didn't catch The Clash. Indie, do you know a band called Magazine? Howard DeVoto (Buzzcocks) was the singer. I saw them supporting XTC.

Add to the list of can't-possibly-reunite bands (with original or best-known lineup): Big Star, the Flying Burrito Brothers, Led Zeppelin, the Temptations

Of bands that, as far I know, can still reunite: like to have seen Uncle Tupelo, Man Or Astroman, the Raspberries, Dan Hicks & His Hot Licks, Pink Floyd

Why is it every time Rogue posts I kick myself for not thinking of someone on his list? Big Star, now there's a band I would have loved to have seen live.

-Ramones
-Thin Lizzy
-The Beatles
-Sex Pistols
-Black Sabbath
-Rolling Stones
-The Clash
-Cream
-Bachman Turner Overdrive
-Deep Purple
-The Doors
-Joy Division
-Led Zepplin
-The Who

I really wish I'd gotten to see Quicksilver at some point, too - before the death of John Cipollina. An amazing guitar player - even with only most of his fingers in tact.

I wish I could have seen Neutral Milk Hotel play before Jeff Mangum suffered his anxiety attacks. Such beautiful music, and I find their live music to be better than the more polished studio versions of their songs.

The Eagles for sure. I'm not sure why I love them so much but I do.

Also, I'm going to see Tragically Hip in September and I can't wait. SOOOO good live

I saw them when I was in high school oh so many years ago. I still have that ticket stub around somewhere, I think.

I love Nirvana and I deeply regret never seeing them in concert. Now Kurt is dead, so my chance is gone. It's truly sad.

My biggest regret was not going to see Led Zeppelin, I was and still am a huge fan but I was going through a different music faze and thought I was past them but I should have gone.

Led Zeppelin
Pink Floyd
Jimi Hendrix

Most of the other bands that I love are still around, Pink Floyd's members are still alive, but I don't think I'll get to see them.

For me it would be

The Doors
AC/DC featuring Bon Scott
Nirvana
The Beatles

I did see Queen - one of the best gigs ever!!! I've also seen U2 a few times and they are well worth it.
