Had tickets to see Petty in Montreal, late 80s but the show was cancelled- in my mind now it was due to the house fire he had, but I'm not sure that totally checks out- anyways never saw him as a result...
almost made a last minute impulse decision to see Prince, while in Montreal on a brief trip, did not, also as a result...
regretted missing Bowie in Edmonton in 83 but I wasn't really in a position to go to that, but as a result..
was always bummed didn't see the Police in 83 but like the Bowie one I was 13 and not really able to get to Edmonton for these things; at least saw them in the Commonwealth return
I wasn't really in a position to see Nirvana in Calgary in 91 (wasn't here) but somehow the narrative is that i missed that one- my buddies definitely missed the Edmonton show on that same tour despite being asked/told to check it out
Husker Du 87 Montreal, wasn't quite cool enough to realize I should go , despite some edgier guys in dorm going and saying I should join them
