I have not had an internet connection for like a week...so i get back online and what happens? the love pistols announced they are doing 3 gigs at Brixton Academy in November, and since i only just found out all, tickets were sold out days ago! ffs they are like my favorite band EVER! and i cant get a ticket for any of the 3 dates cos touts have got there first! its such a rare event.

Theres luck for me yet http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7013761.stm

I will be there, 9am friday morning, trying to book tickets online at 9am!

I agree, some bands might not be 'legends' or 'great' but live they can be great.....and some 'top drawer' bands can be pretty dull live if the situation isnt good - lighting, sound, crowd etc.
I have seen on several occasions Showaddywaddy. David Cassidy and The Wurzels live and they are fantastic fun live, but they dont dominate my 'must have' album collection, you know. But, saying that, I saw the JoBoxers live while they were number one in the charts and they were terrible, people started booing and they eventually walked off!

For this thread, I wish I could have seen Elvis Presley live (if only I'd been the age I am now to truly appreciate it) and Billy Fury was my cousin's best friend but he died before I got a chance to go to a 'come back' concert.
So two regrets there, oh and I think Queen would have been good live too, Freddy Mercury looked a real entertainer.

i would have loved to have seen pink floyd, that would have been the coolest thing ever, after that id have loved to have seen orbital, i missed them a few years back and thought id catch them on their next tour, only to have found out that the tour i missed was actually their fare well tour and they broke up after it

Duran Duran when they were good around 1985

I'd love to see the Seahorses, but as they no longer exsist its very doubtful.

Got to see Blondie at the weekend which would have been another, and even though Ian Brown isn't the Stone Roses, he brought Manny out and they belted out a few old tunes
