Far too many to begin to remember...I've probably forgotten more than I can remember!

Put it this way, apart from people that were dead before I was old enough to go to gigs, I've seen everyone that I've ever wanted to. I don't have a wishlist for bands anymore.

Apart from AC/DC if you don't see them in the Summer, that's a fairly easy to-do list!

Genesis, pogues, stranglers, ratm, new order, the fall, bad brains, mike and the mechanics.

Its getting too expensive now though. Tend to stick to tribute and amateur bands. Tenth of the price and they play the stuff you really want to hear, rather than "and here's something off our new album".

The bands I wish I could have seen just to have believed the hype around them are

The stones (20 years ago)

Led Zeppelin

Queen

I have a duffle bug full of ticket stubs from past concerts and festivals.

Everything from bluegrass to classical and everything in between.

My parents have been taking me to concerts since I was about 6 or 7 and during my teens and twenties I was going to at least one concert a week , sometimes three or four.

I wouldn't like to guess as to how many I've seen.

The Stones were as shit in 1982 as they are now, Zeppelin weren't that good in '79, Queen were shit at Wembley in '86 compared to how good they were on previous tours and I'm really not old enough to have seen The Beatles live...hope that helps!

The original Guns 'N' Roses lineup was long gone by the nineties. The original band only did one proper tour of the UK in about '88 with Faster Pussycat supporting.

thats true, wish I could have seen them live when they were at their best. With Steven, or Matt on drums both good in different ways. Doubt its ever gonna happen. If its not Axl, Slash, Duff, Izzy and Matt or Steven. Its just not Guns n Roses
