Eminem at his peak. I don’t really like his new stuff or the way his voice has changed so although it would still be amazing it wouldn’t be the same.

I was lucky enough to see both a few times, in fact the first time I saw Joy Division they were supporting The Smith's!

Seen most people I want to see, but the ones I haven’t seen are no longer or original members have died.

Pink Floyd - seen separately but not together

Also seen a lot that are sadly no longer with us

Was asked by (older) friend to see Zep's at Knebworth in '79. But said no. Borrowed my tent that came back with crisps & full cans of light ale. Not a great favourite of mine at the time but seeing vids should have said yes !

Floyd The Wall should have gone as well (around same time )

For bands I wasn't into Str***lers & The Damned - both fantastic nowadays (first one censored by site! )

The only band I could have seen but didn't choose to, and might regret, is Kiss.

But the timing didn't work out.

Plenty of others I was too young for, or saw past their peak, but nobody currently on the bucket list.

I'm not a fan of the Tarje era. She's very one dimensional and wooden on stage from the videos I've seen.

Annette was fantastic in the studio.

Floor is simply incredible, especially when Marco was singing backup.

I saw them every time they came to the UK from 1984 onwards.

I saw them in Ft Lauderdale on the reunion tour with Dave too. They were awful. The greatest rock band ever were just a has-been nostalgia act.

If you asked me this question a couple of months ago I'd say Bad Religion. My favourite band but have always (for one reason or another) evaded me when touring in the UK. And consideration this is their 40th year time is no longer on my side.

However I got to see them in Nottingham back in June. They we're awesome and I had a great night.

However, Bruce is good as they thought Dianno was becoming a bit of a big headed dick. So, it will never happen....

Randy Rhodes - whether in Ozzy or any solo work. His mum said he was thinking of doing a classical guitar thang album. Sad. He was a very good technical playing guitarist!!!

"Of bands I could and should have seen I'm still not sure how I never saw Sonic Youth or Fugazi.

Was too young to see Joy Division or The Smiths and I would have loved to have seen

I was lucky enough to see both a few times, in fact the first time I saw Joy Division they were supporting The Smith's!"

I don't want to be that guy, but I'm a big fan of both of these bands and this can't be possibly true.

You're either very much mistaken or you're blatantly lying. Joy Division ceased to exist as Joy Division after Ian Curtis' suicide in May 1980. Johnny Marr was only 16 at this time and The Smiths formed in 1982.

Joy Division went on to become New Order, and in 1982, New Order released Blue Monday, an absolute huge hit. The Smiths released their first album in 1984.

Now you may be confusing Joy Division with New Order, but for New Order to support The Smiths, although not impossible, probably very unlikely, seeing they were a huge band in their own right. Also Joy Division and New Order were musically pretty different, so quite difficult to confuse each other with, I would have thought.

Are you sure you're thinking of Joy Division?

Gotta love a music nerd, I love it when people swear they've seen bands or gigs when factually it's impossible

I've been to way in excess of a 1000 gigs and NIN are one of my top five- it just has the most intense atmosphere where a 15000 audience gig feels like its 150 people in a small underground private club- very hard to describe it accurately but make sure you go and see them if you can

Actually you are right, it was the Buzzcocks NOT the Smiths! I saw both at Guildford Civic Hall. Joy Division supported the Buzzcocks on the 1st November 1979 and James supported the Smiths on the 28th February 1985. And yes, I know all about New Order, I saw them at Brighton Jenkinsons and Reading University in 1981. It was a genuine mistake NOT a blatant lie!!!!

And Genesis with PG, I saw them at MK Bowl in 1982? For the Six of the Best one off, but that gig was beset with problems and I’d like to have seen them at their pomp.

Not a band but Bill Hicks.

He toured the UK in the early 90s and my local gig clashed with something else, so I thought I'll miss this one and catch his next tour. There wasn't a next tour

No, I'm not apologising. I either said your were mistaken or a liar, it was definitely going to be one or the other. Not my fault you don't know the difference between The Buzzcocks and The Smiths.

Of course I know the difference the difference between the Smiths and the Buzzcocks, those gigs were about 40 years ago!!!! Stop being so patronising. You suggested I might be blatantly lying without even bothering to find out from me whether I'd misremembered something that happened over 40 years ago. It's really offensive to accuse someone of lying when they aren't. Ironic that you list bad manners, self entitlement and arrogance as your profile dislikes, take a look in the mirror sometime!

Bon Jovi were the first hand I saw live. 'Keep the Faith' Tour 1994.

And I that's when I discovered that Wembley Arena is a shit venue.

I've seen Chris Cornell live. With Audios*lave and solo. But never get to witness Soundgarden live.

Okay fair enough. I do apologise, you're right, I jumped the gun and made an unfair assumption. I genuinely didn't mean to offend and the tone of my initial post was definitely off. I should have approached it differently. I have mild autism, which means I like facts and figures, hence being a stickler for accuracy, but it also means I can be quite blunt sometimes. I am genuinely sorry. I hope you have a good day

We went to see the Abba show on Sunday, absolutely jaw dropping. I think it is the future but the technology involved is going to make it very expensive so I think it will only be a very few artists that can sustain a king run of shows (Abba are going on until 2024 I think). I can see Any Winehouse and Michael Jackson being done, the Beatles in the Sgt Pepper era would be good too.

Ticket prices for shows like that are crazy, that why I didn't see Maiden this time round. Rather spend that sort of cash on smaller gigs.
