Are there any bans or performers you never saw live, but wish you had? There are a couple for me. I would have liked to have seen Zepplin and Queen perform in person.

Red Hot Chili Peppers are coming to India this year, I read in a newspaper. But before that, the 80s popular Human League and Boney M are coming to India.

Cool! Any idea when they are coming?

I read in a newspaper that they are planning a tour. I'm going to tell you. And Boney M is a big hit in India I think they already had a concert some days ago. And Have no idea about Human League's tour.

I had two chances to see Depeche Mode, but never did. I always wanted to see them! I'd also love to see Duran Duran. I've love to see: Queen, Journey (with Steve Perry), The Police (I'm hoping to God they play near me when they do a reunion tour this year!!!), Genesis (I also hope they play here this year!!!), the Beatles would have been amazing!!.. there might have been a few others. There were some AWESOME bands from back in the 70's and 80's that I never got to see live. Oh.. the Doobie Brothers would have been good to see, too.

That's a good list! it's funny, when I started this discussion I thought of just a couple -- but everybody keeps bringing up bands and singers that I would have loved to have seen but hadn't thought about. I'm surprised that no one had mentioned the Beatles yet! That's a good one too!

Im a big fan of nirvana. Sad that kurt cobain took his life at an early age. But their music lives on. I also like to see red hot chili peppers and madonna perform live. This is possible coz they are alive and still doing beautiful music.

Nirvana is another one I wish I'd seen. Man this topic is starting to bum me out. I hadn't thought about them!

Definitely Nirvana. This is my dream. Every time I listen to Nirvana which is almost everyday I just imagine what it would have been like to see Kurt live and it kind of breaks my heart. To hear that voice live, and feel the energy of the band wow! Would have been amazing. Another Concert would be Elliott Smith, can't believe he killed himself so young. Also would have been a great show!

I'll second your Queen & Zepplin. Also gotta add that I've never gotten over being born too late for Woodstock, lol. I'd also like to see AC/DC, The Doobie Brothers, Rick Springfield, Prince & the Stray Cats. I'm sure there's plenty more I've missed, but some are still possible. Heck, I got to see CSN&Y back together live this past September.

I have been to a LOT of concerts over the years. I listed them in someone else's thread a while back. I bet AC/DC was fun...rub it in, go ahead, lol.

Saw AC/DC -- it was fun. I've never seen Prince though. And I thought I'd been to a bunch of concerts.

I went to see Deep Purple (Some Days Ago) and INXS(Few Months Ago) live in India. I'd love to see The Rolling Stones and Iron Maiden.

maiden puts on a great show -- Wow! Deep Purple! I didn't realize they were still around. That's pretty awesome.

I would have loved to have seen the Rolling Stones. I just about made it too except that I ended up having my appendix taken out instead. I still feel robbed

Well the Stones keep coming around and coming around -- You'll probably get a chance to see them again. I was going o go see them, but that show was just too expensive for me.

oh definitely lots of bands like pink floyd, ramones, queen, black sabbath and uhmmm yeah metallica even they become so not so rock... and with the present bands i like to see perform the used, save ferris and my favorite band coheed and cambria... but i think this is really impossible since they are not well know here in the philippines.

I have to second the Queen and Zepplin! I also would have loved to have seen the Police in concert, and Pink Floyd with Syd Barrett fronting. Before he began his descent, anyway. Oh man, to see Barret perform live would have been the greatest moment of my life. That man was a genius.

Now I'm really getting depressed -- I never got to see Pink Floyd either.

I would loved to have seen Queen in concert when Freddie Mercury was still alive. Right now, Michael Ball and George Strait are at the top of my list for perfomers I would like to see. Unfortunately Mr. Ball does not, to my knowledge, tour in the states.

the only band i would like to see live is KISS. I last time saw them 10 years ago and have been a fan since 1985.

I would have loved to have seen Nirvana live - I bet that would have been incredible, but I was too young when they were going. I would also have liked to see The Beatles perform. It would be great to see Radiohead live, but I doubt if they'll be doing that at any point now.

I would have loved to see Queen, ABBA and U2. U2 were actually here last year, but I don't like the venue they were at and tickets were too expensive for me. Some others that I would like to see that are somewhat more realistic: Madonna (just for the fact that I think she would put on an amazing show), Michael Jackson (again for the fact that he would put on a show), Kylie Minogue (tickets sold way too quick for her last tour and I couldn't manage to pick up floor tickets.) Anastacia and Natalie Imrbuglia as well.

When I watched The Last Waltz several years ago, I wished I'd seen The Band live.
