Who do you most wish you could see in concert?

[taterguy]

[Rabrrrrrr]

1. I've seen Pink Floyd, but only without Rogers, and I've seen Waters, but without Pink Floyd

What I'd like to see is the full Pink Floyd, like we saw for that glorious half our at G8 or whatever the fuck it was.

Come back to us, Pink Floyd!!!!

[Initech]

2. One of these does not belong on the list.

[taterguy]

4. The one who lost his artistic integrity opening up for the Monkees?

Or were you thinking of someone else?

[Initech]

5. I was thinking the Disney corporate sell out douchebags

Who make their living making a mockery of everything rock music stands for.

[taterguy]

13. Can a band that never had integrity in the first place "sell out"?

Although truthfully I'm not familiar with the history of the Jonas Brothers so I guess it's possible they once had integrity.

[TZ]

3. I've seen the Stones...

Waay back in the mid eighties with their "Steel Wheels" tour. I would LOVE to see them again

[Initech]

6. Their "A Bigger Bang" tour was fucking fantastic.

I saw both LA shows - one at Angel Stadium and one at Dodger Stadium. Awesome.

[boilerbabe]

14. They always put on a great show

Saw them in the Stadium formerly known as San Diego in 1981 and also in the Stadium formerly known as Foxboro in 1997. They never run out of material either!

[southerncrone]

7. Saw The Stones on July 4, 1976 in Memphis !

Tremendous concert!! Mick was in his prime & strutted his stuff for hours.

Best concert I ever saw.

[WinkyDink]

30. On that day I saw Elton John and the REAL Queen in Philly!

[southerncrone]

36. What a great day it was! Life was good & so was the music.

Little did we know back then that our country would end up like this :(.

[Art_from_Ark]

8. The Beatles

[LibDemAlways]

32. Me too.

[MrSlayer]

9. My uncles took me to a Led Zeppelin concert when I was 5.

I was too young to appreciate it. I would love to go back in time to see them. I've seen the Stones 13 times and Pink Floyd 5 times. I take Zeppelin over Jimi but I would love to see him too.

[ghostsofgiants]

10. None of the above.

[kentauros]

27. Yeah, I agree

I thought this was "poll-less" and I could just answer with either Kraftwerk or Tangerine Dream :P

[ghostsofgiants]

35. Kraftwerk might be fun.

I'd probably want to see The Clash or Wipers or something.

[Zavulon]

11. Hendrix, preferably in a club.

I'd like to see any of the others in concert except for the Jonas Brothers.

My first choice would involve resurrecting Lonesome Dave Peverett from the dead, in which case I'd love to see the original Foghat. Another resurrection or two would be necessary, as I believe Roger Craig is no longer with us either.

[OmahaBlueDog]

12. I'm really hoping, after the Ahmet Ertegun fundraiser, that Paige, Plant, Jones, and Bonham (Jason).

...go on the "We're gonna make a billion dollars" tour and play North American stadiums next summer.

[Whisp]

15. Annie Lennox

[Midlodemocrat]

16. How did I know the Jonas Brothers would be in this poll?

:rofl:


And, the show was pretty good.

[taterguy]

18. Because they're the best fucking band on the planet

That's how

[hobbit709]

19. Which planet?

[TZ]

20. Planet Taterguy.

He obviously lives in his own world....:D

[OmahaBlueDog]

21. My daughter agrees with you, but without the vulgarity

I like the JoBros. They're entertaining and they're funny on camera.

[Midlodemocrat]

22. d00d, damned straight.

[hobbit709]

17. Seen the first 4, have no intention of seeing the other.

[VenusRising]

23. It would have to be Hendrix from that list.

[stuntcat]

24. Queen

:headbang:

or Micheal Jackson! :headbang:

[LeftyMom]

25. Of the list, I've only seen Floyd.

Of the list, I'd pick Jimi. But I'd rather see Janis, if we're resurrecting people, and also like the Queen suggestion above.

[Forkboy]

26. On that list, Hendrix.

But I'd rather see a thousand other bands before that.

[dembotoz]

28. kate bush

i already saw hendrix--he was good though

[LynneSin]

29. Why the Rolling STones - they do a farewell tour every other year

I saw their Farewell tour back in 1989

[WinkyDink]

31. Well, of course, if we are including DEAD people---The Beatles! Or Maria Callas.

[LostInAnomie]

33. Satan.

I bet that mother fucker can rock the fuck out.

[Sebastian Doyle]

47. Well, I've heard that he has

...one HELL of a band. :evilgrin:

[bigwillq]

34. Madonna

Don't hate. I'm series. I love Madge. Always have, always will.

[Doug.Goodall]

37. Since I am a fan of folk music and Country/Western, I guess I can't vote

[taterguy]

38. As if this isn't one of the greatest country and western songs of all-time

[mokawanis]

39. Saw the Stones twice

The Voodoo Lounger tour and the Bridges to Babylon tour. Seeing Hendrix would have really been something to remember.

[Fox Mulder]

40. The Jonas Brothers?

Seriously? You included them in this poll? Or is this some sort of esoteric stuff I don't know about?

[taterguy]

44. Yes

[JVS]

41. chuggo

[Amerigo Vespucci]

42. Hendrix, of course...

..."The Jimi Hendrix Movie"...



...is worth a watch just for the "circle the wagons" comments by British rock icons like Jagger, Townshend and Clapton. When Hendrix started making noise in England, they basically called each other up and started sweating about their share of the turf.

He redefined the playing field. The "seasoned pros" knew that they couldn't come within a mile of him...they had no choice but to sit back and be fans with the rest of the world.

Any of the people on your list would be worth seeing, but Hendrix is the one who would be most likely to do something you've never seen before. I've seen dorks from the suburbs play the guitar behind their neck and with their teeth, but it's never quite the same...you know?

:toast:

[Jamastiene]

43. Courtney Love. n/t

[Left Is Write]

45. Choosing from those options only, Led Zeppelin.

[Sebastian Doyle]

46. Probably have to go with Hendrix.

I've seen the Stones (though unfortunately not with Mick Taylor). Haven't seen Zeppelin or Floyd, but there remains a slight possibility that one or both of these bands might tour again. I'm not remotely interested in any "Pink Floyd" lineup that doesn't include Roger Waters, but I don't think Gilmour is going to do that again. After the Live Earth show, I was hopeful that they might play live again, and longer than 20 minutes. Zeppelin... won't be the same without Bonzo, and Plant is nowhere near the singer he was in the 70's, but I'd go to the show because... well, because it's fucking Zeppelin. How can you NOT see them if you have the chance?

As for the Jonas brothers, the only way I'd pay to see them, is if it was watching their tour bus go over a cliff. I'd buy that DVD and watch it daily.

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

48. The Smiths

Alas, 'twill never happen.

[taterguy]

49. What's wrong with good American bands?

Like the ones listed in my poll

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

50. Nothing, but none of them appeal to me!

I love the Smiths! :hi:

[old mark]

51. I'd love to see the Ramones.

Unfortunately, I can't but they have some great performance videos.
