The Scorpions are still touring? Love that band. I haven't seen them in years but saw them 4 or 5 times I think. They always sounded pretty much exactly the same live as on an album. fun band. I was like 15 or 16 when I first saw them in the 80s and it was chick with big hair, fishnet stockings and I was one kid dazzled by it all and thought yea I like this.
One of my all time favorites is Social Distortion . seen them 5 times. they were just in town but sold out.
Always wanted to see Alice Cooper but never have. Also always wanted to see Aerosmith and never have. Always wanted to see Queen and never did. Elton John would be a good show I bet, never have seen him either.
Forgot about AC/DC .
We all will be seeing them someday, but personally I'd prefer to wait a bit!Jimi Hendrix
Mike Bloomfield
The Doors
Probably my greatest regret in music attendance was in not seeing all those great Chicago bluesman, the guys that gave us the Stones and blues based rock, when they were playing a scant mile or two from house as a kid. Playing in small Southside clubs and bars for a two drink minimum, or a very moderate door fee, interacting with their audience.I dont go to shows anymore but I am sad that I never saw Talking Heads.

Hound Dog Taylor, Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, John Lee Hooker, the whole pantheon, were alive then and working the SouthSide juke joints. Instead I spent my money and time on Pink Floyd, The Who, The Stones, and whatever popular national act came through, watching from many rows back.
Not that I regret being a part of the sixties & seventies rock scene, but I neglected seeing those iconic working bluesmen in their native environment.
These days? Man, I probably rather see my favorite bands doing live shows on YouTube.
If anything was possible I would love to see Black Sabbath in their pride,:
I saw them between Master of Reality and Vol. 4. Great show.
This is an awesome concert. Check it out.
I know the video, loved the video, would have loved to see them play then but sadly, too young for it.
Would have also loved to see this lot play together:
Yeah, I saw the Dio version of Sabbath on the Heaven and Hell (album) tour, but I didn't go see Ozzy when they came through and Rhodes was alive. I had a crunch week at school and told myself, "next time".
The Stones, Pink Floyd, and AC/DC when Brian Johnson was the lead singer...
I've seen the Eagles, the Doobies, Billy Joel, and ELO...all great concerts...I think one of the worst concerts I've ever seen was Van Halen...
When did you see Van Halen?
I saw them 5 times, but the last time was the 5150 tour. 2 of those shows were disappointing, but other 3 were awesome. Eddie has drug/alcohol issues and I think the quality of the shows depended on his state of mind/body.
Way back when...1984 World Tour...
