Not seeing them at that show is one of my biggest musical regrets. I was a student there at the time and for whatever reason couldn’t be bothered to go. Bear in mind almost no one had heard of them here at that point.

A friend had been a fan for a while and was well known for trudging around campus in a Nirvana T-shirt. Because of this, someone thought he might know a bit about them and he was dragged to the university radio station to interview Kurt.

"The Sex Pistols (I saw them in the 90's,but would have loved to see them when they were young).

The Who (again, I saw them when they toured in the early 2000's, but it wasn't the same as I imagine them being in their heyday).

The Rolling Stones

Suede "

Suede are arguably a better live band now than they've ever been.

"I had tickets for Nirvana I couldn’t use.

Also Oasis before they got big. We got spannered and couldn’t be arsed to leave the pub

#noRegrets

You know when people say “it was obvious they were going to be huge- you could tell” about a band. Well I saw Oasis in a pub before “live forever” came out. As we left my exact words to my mate were “what an absolute load of shit they’ll never get anywhere!”

"

I had a similar experience with Radiohead, fucking awful
