Name 5-6 concerts you would love to see (but can't since the band no longer exists)

[LynneSin]

My top #5 would be (in no particular order):

1.) Talking Heads
2.) Electric Light Orchestra
3.) Queen
4.) Led Zeppelin (I'd be happy to see the 3 original members with Jason)
5.) The Beatles
6.) Pink Floyd

WHat's your 5?

I had to add Pink Floyd. I've seen Roger Waters 3 times and I would love to see him back with David Gilmour.

[Brickbat]

1. The Who, Led Zeppelin, Uncle Tupelo (again), Woody Guthrie, and...hmmm...maybe some old blues

singers who aren't performing for a record or for white people. I'd love to hear Robert Johnson with a hollering crowd, or Blind Willie Johnson, which was probably spooky as all hell.

[LynneSin]

2. The Who is overdue for another farewell tour - they do one about every 5 years

I saw their farewell tour back in 1989

[Brickbat]

3. I saw them do Quadrophenia in, uh, 1997? Specifically, I want to be at Live at Leeds.

1. Mr. Bungle
2. The Mothers of Invention
3. godspeed you! black emperor
4. Dead Kennedys (with Jello)
5. Jerry's Kids

5. Harry Nilsson for sure

Anyone who saw him do "Without You" live will never forget it.

Hee, hee, hee. Will anyone know?
