Concert you never saw but should have

[dirk diggler]

I brought this up the other day with a friend of mine. Knowing what you know now, what artist/band would you have absolutely gone to see that you didnt back then.

Even though he isnt a favourite of mine, i would have taken a trip to see Prince and would have loved to have seen STP back in the 90's when Weiland was at his best.

If this thread has been done, i apologize.

I missed several chances to go see the Sex Pistols back in early '77, I regret not catching most of the Grunge scene in the 90's, in my defense I had an 8 year old kid and a bad marriage

[Harry Lime]

When Soundgarden was here, shooting the video for Fell on Black Days, I should have gone. It would be cool because of the living relic the video would have been.

The Clash:Max Bell Arena June 28, 1982

[Table 5]

In Jr. High, I kept putting off getting tickets to Radiohead...by the time I got around to it, it was too late. I got to see them at Max Bell a few years later, but it would've been a cool experience to see them at Mac Hall when they were still relatively small.

There are probably a hundred awesome concerts I should've seen while living in NY. The problem when you live in a busy place like that is that there's always another concert coming up, so you just put it off.

KISS at Cobo Hall, man.

[iggy_oi]

Two that come to mind are Daft punk around 15 years ago in the states and Prince when he was here the last time before his death.

[GreenLantern2814]

Norm MacDonald at the Laugh Shop in like 2018 or 19.

I figured I’d catch him next time.

Metallica And Justice For All tour with The Cult as an opener. Two of my absolute favourite bands and I didn’t bother to try and get tickets as a 14 year old with better things to do.

The Tragically Hip

[ResAlien]

I should have seen the band Her’s in Denver but the woman I was seeing didn’t like their music. I said that’s fine and I’ll catch them next time they’re in town.

Entire band died in a car crash a few nights later. So can’t see em now.

[Manhattanboy]

Late in the 90s had great tix to Pink Floyd in Edmonton but couldn’t make it. Ugh.

[Manhattanboy]

Also wanted to see Foo Fighters but then Taylor Hawkins passed away suddenly.

Had floor seats for that one. Excellent show.

STP, never managed to see them.

I was at that show too. The Cult were great but weren't received well by the Metallica fans.

[CaptainYooh]

AC/DC in Edmonton in 1991 and later in 2015. Missed both for not wanting to pay scalpers’ prices and still kicking myself for it.

[username]

Daft Punk at Coachella.

[DownInFlames]

The second time Fugazi played here. I wish I knew it would be the last time.

Getting a couple of hours with a legend for the price of lunch, not every day you can do that.

[Flabbibulin]

The fact that these were all Calgary shows is devastating now in retrospect…

David Bowie
Prince
Leonard Cohen
