psydoll Posted September 21, 2004 Report Share Posted September 21, 2004 Present: NOFX - got me into punk rock and Fat Mike is a hero of sorts for meI thought they were pleasing at Leeds 2001 and we watched the end of it from the top of the ferris wheel! It was most pleasing and Fat Mike was visible clearly even from that high up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psydoll Posted September 21, 2004 Report Share Posted September 21, 2004 I didn't think of Soundgarden I must admit. They'd be a close second to Faith No More or maybe Nirvana at their height. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest killamangiro Posted September 21, 2004 Report Share Posted September 21, 2004 To answer the question, i'd have liked to have seen pulp earlier than i did, more songs lifted from 'common people' would've been nice, other than that, hmm.. the smiths, seen morrisey this summer and twas not disappointed, good guy.

Swingin' Ryan Posted September 21, 2004 Report Share Posted September 21, 2004 I would currently love to see Aerosmith, and I'm praying they come to Britain as they haven't been here for a very long time.I would have loved to have seen - The Manic Street Preachers around 1993 Elvis Presley in the late 50's - early 60'sAnd I would have walked over hot coals, bare-footed carrying a fat, naked woman to have seen Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis JR (The Rat Pack) doing their thing at the Sands hotel.

Guest Nikola Tesla Posted September 21, 2004 Report Share Posted September 21, 2004 Hmm... id love to see Converge again.. but in a tiny venue this time (like that would happen)And probibly to see Botch would be my past band... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryn Posted September 21, 2004 Report Share Posted September 21, 2004 Mr Bungle, Zappa, Extreme, possibly Nirvana. fuck,what am i saying, theres much too many to mention! I say, pretty much all of the amazing artists that have ever performed in the last 40 years, can't get too particular here without using brain.

Guest Tam o' Shantie Posted September 21, 2004 Report Share Posted September 21, 2004 this argument makes no sense - if you are willing to do anything, travel any distance and spend any amount of money to see a band then you'd have already done it, cunts , so fuck off my choicesthe ramonesspazzloads more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Atom Posted September 21, 2004 Report Share Posted September 21, 2004 Obviously (if you know me) Iron Maiden, I've been to Paris to see them, London 3 times, Newcastle and Donington, and doubtless I'll do it again when they tour next year... I'd love to have seen them with Paul Di'anno on vocals, but I wasn't born by the time he left...I'm thinking about travelling to see Judas Priest and Black Sabbath if they come to Britain again...I'd love to have seen Zeppelin back in the day...

HummerOfIntenseEvil Posted September 21, 2004 Report Share Posted September 21, 2004 Past: Manic Street Preachers last gig in 1994 at London Astoria, where they all went fucking mental. Or a gig in 1993, when they still played Sleepflower. Or 1992, when they still played Born To End. Or 1990, when they still insulted the crowds.The Clash, in the earlier days before America destroyed them.Faith No More (but not until Mike's voice had broken, so 1992 onwards.)After that, I'd basically be just naming all my favourite bands.Present: Tomahawk, for Patton is god. And his crowd banter is second to none.I've been pretty good at getting to gigs this year, so I don't think there's really anyone I would have to part with much money or travel for miles to see. Although I did consider going to see Patton vs Rahzel in London the day before the Velvet Revolver gig in Glasgow... but that would have been silly.

Guest Scorge Spike Posted September 21, 2004 Report Share Posted September 21, 2004 Joy Division. (I've seen New Order four times, but that's not quite the same.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neil ex Posted September 21, 2004 Report Share Posted September 21, 2004 Past solo artist....Nick Drake.i think nick drake only performed live somewhere between 20 and 30 times, which would make it pretty special.(might be wrong though)i think seeing joy division live would have been an experience you'd always remember about.

MattJimF Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 past Original Guns N Roses lineup, the verve, the who, would have been good to see New Radicals as well.Present Placebo, Greenday, Queens of the Stone Age, Bon Jovi and if they ever tour again the cranberries.

paranoid Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 I've kinda already done the travelling stupid distance when I went to London to see ICP last November.I have been considering going to the States for the Gathering of the Juggalos and I have a mate who is also thinkng about it. I've been lucky that any band I've really wanted to see have played either Glasgow or Aberdeen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imprinted Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 Einsturzende Neubauten' date=' because they are simply the most invigorating band live and one of the most rewarding to actually see make the music - The inventiveness adds a whole new level to what you just accept on CD.And, er, I'm going to go to Berlin in November and see them twice in the gutted shell of the Palast Der Republik. One of those gigs is a supporter only event to help them make things for their new album. Rockin'.[/quote']ooh that would be interesting indeed and i wish wumpscut would change his mind and put on live shows with a full band - that would be pleasing as well.incidentally - skinny puppy in the VIVIsectVI days. would love to see nivek hanging from the roof upside down whilst covered in blood screaming away. or being down on the floor and performing a fake vivisection and getting arrested because it looked too realistic!

Project S.A.M. Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 The mid-sixties Americo-German uber-beat band The Monks: I would travel as far as southern Spain to see them (which I can), and back in time if I could (but I can't). Fortunately they're re-grouping and playing a show forward in time at the Wild Weekend in Benidorm. When I first heard this I thought for a second that there was no way I could travel to Spain for this. Then I realised that that was bullshit, so I'm going.

chris h Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 Kyuss. I'd crawl through a sewer to see them. Soundgarden and Frank Zappa also spring to mind. And Nirvana.Oh, and the Beach Boys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
