    Layne Thomas Staley.

    I would give anything.

    Is it so wrong to think that love can keep us safe?

    I think I am with you.

    I had tickets for David Bowie on his last tour, which was just awesome, he was doing 30+ songs a night from throughout his career. The Tampa show sold out in like 10 minutes but we managed to get tickets for Miami, so we made the drive... While they were setting up the stage, a stagehand fell and got killed. So they cancelled the show, no make up date. That was so fucking dissapointing. It really sucks that someone died, but I really don't know that he will ever do another tour like that where he plays all those old songs, much less come anywhere within driving distance of me.
    The Man has a branch office in each of our brains, his corporate emblem is a white albatross, each local rep has a cover known as the Ego, and their mission in this world is Bad Shit.

    there are too many to choose from...there are a lot of great bands/musicians from the 60s and 70s that I would like to have seen live...also, I got into Pearl Jam after the Seattle scene died down so it was later on that I discovered their contemperaries and never got to see Nirvana, Alice In Chains, Soundgarden, Mudhoney, etc live.....hopefully, Mudhoney will continue on and come somewhere close enough for me to see them *fingers crossed, but not holding my breath*

    I have it narrowed down to Led Zeppelin, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Alice in Chains, Pink Floyd or The Doors. Maybe a festival type concert with all 5 of them would be the best bet.
  • keeponrockinkeeponrockin Posts: 7,446
    Pink Floyd
    Jimi Hendrix
    Stevie Ray Vaughan
    Nirvana
    Alice In Chains
    Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V
  • tybirdtybird Posts: 17,388
    Still alive: Kate Bush
    No longer living (broken up): Led Zeppelin
    No longer using the same line-up: King Crimson 1972-1973
    All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a thousand enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.
