Following a comment by rossiswaistcoat on the thread about bands you would still like to see live, how about the acts that you have actually seen?  Its taken a little thinking, but these are the ones I've seen live. There will be more, but these are the ones off the top of my head... Metallica Happy Mondays Black Sabbath Black Grape Hawkwind George Clinton Roger Daltrey Seal Robert Plant Plant & Page George Michael Elton John Rod Stewart Guns n Roses The Hamsters Status Quo Paul Young Tpau The Spin Doctors Primal Scream Extreme Rage Against The Machine Dumpy’s Rusty Nuts Faith No More Bonnie Tyler Soul Asylum Blur Radiohead Oasis The Shamen The Orb Korn Machinehead Iron Maiden Anthrax Rolf Harris Pulp Prince Liza Minnelli Mott The Hoople The Black Crowes Lenny Kravitz Amy Winehouse Leo Sayer Slade 2 Motörhead The Damned Chas n Dave Bucks Fizz Imagination The Swinging Blue Jeans The Troggs Belly The Kaiser Chiefs Def Leppard Bob Geldof Spinal Tap Liza Stansfield The Zombies Colin Blunstone Argent Dodgy The Lightening Seeds Paul Weller Kula Shakur Skid Row Johnny Cash Bad Manners Samson L7 The Pretenders Wilko Johnson Nine Inch Nails Soundgarden India Arie The Wurzels Tenpole Tudor Skunk Anansie The Eagles Jools Holland Ride The Beach Boys Heather Small Paul Rodgers Steve Harley Manfred Mann’s Earth Band Orbital Ozric Tentacles Van Morrison Blondie Curiosity Killed The Cat The Kooks The Rolling Stones David Bowie Annie Lennox Dr And The Medics The Specials |

I'm not sure there's enough room to list them!  Hundreds of gigs going back to 1973. Although they are (sadly!) all documented. But I didn't see the rossiswaistcoat thread. There are one or two that I'd still love to see but the ship has sailed on most of them. One or two newer acts but not many. |

I mustn't be so presumptuous in these enlightened days of multiple genders. So what I should have said is it was a comment by it, not a thread. I'm getting to the age where whatever I say will be completely ignored. Apologies |
