What Band Do You Regret Never Getting The Chance To See Live?

I would need double ear protection, ear plugs plus head sets.

I've seen most of the majors of late 60's, 70's and early 80's. Never saw and wished I did the Beatles, Sly, Chubby Checker, Weather Report, Miles Davis, The Doors, King Crimson, CCR. Now, I went to many "World Series of Rock" type of shows with multiple bands therefore, courtesy of Eli Lilly, Arnar Stone, Bill Rorer and the like, the ones I missed may or may not have been playing

I got to see King Crimson back in the day. Was awesome!

- Zepplin
- Queen with Freddie...saw them a couple of years ago with Lambert who did a great job
- Original DP with Ritchie ... saw them with Steve Morse though. Like him more than Ritchie to be honest because Dixie Dregs
- Original Black Sabbath (saw Heaven and Hell a just before RJD died... RIP)
- Pink Floyd...saw Roger Waters but haven't seen Sir David unfortunately
- Ozzy Osbourne with Randy Rhoads in Blizzard tour .. Me and a buddy were 12 years old at the time and an older kid from the Base (Military) said we could go with him. Both of our parents said no so we were fucked. about 25 years later the both of us went to Ozzie for the first time and we phoned our Mom's and reminded them of what they stole from us as youth's.! Randy Rhoads is one of the reasons I began playing guitar 35+ years ago

My most recent concert miss that I slightly regret is Nightwish. I bought tix for me and my daughter a year in advance, and I'd never really listened to them play. Stayed away from the band for the full year, my daughters buddy got her a free ticket to Avenged Sevenfold so I returned the favor for her by giving her friend my Nightwish ticket. Regret missing the band but do not regret giving away the ticket to the girl at all.

There's a shit load more bands I wish I'd checked out live in the 80's like The Scorpions, GnR, a a number of others. Couldn't see them all though.

I saw Aerosmith back in the toxic twin days with Foghat and Mot The Hoople. Seen them multiple times in the 90's.

Seen Foghat in the early days and was more then awesome. Mott The Hoople? Too Cool!
Did you know Mott opened up for Queen at various venue's in the early days? '74 to be exact.
I have a Queen '74 poster 1st show ever in the USA at a College in Colorado with
guest stars Mott The Hoople I've had forever.

Slade, Sha Na Na, Bob Marley, Wild Cherry were some others I would have liked to seen. Supposedly I saw Joplin at the Capitol in Port Chester, NY, but don't remember even a sliver of that evening. Marianne Faithfull in the early 80's would have been nice, too.

I'm the same size as Mays is why I said that, you could have just been "really small" that night...lol.

 

[Severed Tongue]

I would have loved to see any of the rock n roll acts of the 50's & 60's back when it was actually about the talent entertaining and not about the sound or lights or effects.

Only 2 bands I missed in the 90's was Pantera and Nirvana.
