For me:

Nine Inch Nails

Avenged Sevenfold

The Prodigy

Death From Above 1979

A Perfect Circle

Emilie Autumn (Based on what I've seen on Youtube, she's not very good at live performances, but it would still be fun)

Juan Diego Florez

Weird Al Yankovic

Steam Powered Giraffe (My sister got to see them already!)

Professor Elemental

Michael Card (I saw him perform live back in 2006 but would love to see him again)

Nine Inch Nails

I LOVE Trent Reznor. I gotten to see Nine Inch Nails three times. Fragile Tour, NINJA Tour, Tensions Tour. I LOVE Trent Reznor!!

Bruce Springsteen.

I don’t know any about Bruce Springsteen. I had an opportunity to see him two years ago; I was BLOWN AWAY.

I am not much of a concert person, but I will take advantage of an opportunity once presented.

In no particular order here is my list.

Tool

Radiohead <-- Won’t Happen

Explosions In the Sky

Portishead

A Winged Victory for the Sullen

Fugazi <-- Won’t Happen

The Catherine Wheel <-- Won’t Happen

Boards Of Canada

Depeche Mode <-- I would have rather seen them in the 90’s on the Violation Tour when he was all fucked up.

I've seen her 3 times live and she's been great. Definitely worth seeing live.

The only band I haven't seen yet that I'd love to see live is Leaves Eyes. I almost considered going on a Metal cruise because they're be playing on it =P One of these days they'll make it here...

My brother actually did see Neil Sedaka live, Vivaldi.

If I could just see Tomas Ledin, I would die as one happy woman!

I'd need a time machine:

Pink Floyd circa 1973

The Who circa 1971

Jethro Tull on their Thick as a Brick tour

As for bands/artists who aren't defunct or dead:

I'd love to see The Hives live. What a show that must be!

And I already saw Tame Impala in 2013, which was kind of a mistake, because I was literally unable to die before seeing them ;) Worth it :lol:

EmotionalAndroid

The Aquabats

SMAP

Perfume

Maybe Daft Punk....

If I could go back in time, I would love to have seen some of the great Big Bands, like the orchestras of Glenn Miller, Kay Kyser, and Tommy Dorsey. I would have also liked to have seen some doo-wop groups, like Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons.

Oh Gosh let's name out all the bands/artists that'll never happen:

  • The Beatles
  • The Traveling Wilburys
  • The Who (I've seen it with Pete and Rog and Pete's brother I believe but I mean the original with Pete, Rog, Keith and (my fav) Enty. Impossible now).
  • George Harrison solo (so many brilliant songs he had when allowed to spread his wings)
  • The Dubliners
  • Simon & Garfunkel
  • Led Zeppelin
  • Roy Orbison
  • Elvis Presley
  • Dean Martin
  • Frank Sinatra (but I love Dino more so. Frank is still pretty great, though.)
  • ABBA
  • Queen (Original lineup)
  • Mozart
  • Beethoven

Now some that are possible but still probably won't ever happen:

  • Steam Powered Giraffe (bought tickets to a place based solely on them and a podcast and they both cancelled sooo I was thisclose. E r g h.)
  • Panic! At the Disco
  • Coeur de Pirate (every song I hear from her is just a straight-up delight).
  • Fun.
  • The High Kings
  • Hozier
  • P!nk
  • David Bowie
  • The Beach Boys

YESSSSS. I'm practically broke, but if they were to suddenly have a tour and were to come near me, I'd buy a ticket without any hesitation.

Besides Rammstein, I'd love to see Tool. For all the rest, I'd prefer to go to an industrial festival to see them, rather than separate ones.

Guess I need to look some of these groups up!

Music bucket list:

-Led Zeppelin: would be so cool... alas... might have to see a tribute band sometime

-Apocalyptica: really curious what the feeling in a live show would be like, also, f yeah cellos!!

-Phutureprimitive: saw him once, 10 out of 10 would do again in a heartbeat, regardless of how awkward I am at dancing

-Angel Vivaldi: hearing him tear soundspace apart live would probably melt my brain into a puddle of happy little squishy bits

-Yoshida Brothers: epic shamisen sound, plus they always look like they enjoy playing so much!

-Slow Magic: opened for another show I was at and ohmigawd the energy in that percussion, the live performance is.... pure magic
