    Well, what bands do you need to see before you can die happy. Obviously it has to be realistic.

    Candlebox
    Black Sabbath (original lineup)
    The Who
    R.E.M
    Red Hot Chilli Peppers
    Dinosaur Jr
    Various stoner bands.

    I think i would have seen some of these if their ticket prices wern't so steep!

    Sabbath's original line up live, is incredible :D

    R.E.M. also fit under the 'absolutely fucking amazing' category ;)

    Out of interest, which stoner bands?


    I'd like to see Dax Riggs (in any form), Faith No More, Richard Thompson, Sepultura, Life of Agony, Stone Gossard, The Audreys, Saul Williams, Rob Zombie, Damien Rice, Live and The Cure
    Been to this many PJ shows: Reading 2006 London 2007 Manchester & London 2009 Dublin, Belfast, London, Nijmegen & Berlin 2010 Manchester 1 & Manchester 2 2012...

    ... and I still think Drive-By Truckers are better.

    I need to see Cat Power before I die too. More specifically I want to meet her.

    Yes :)

    Why the running? :p

    Don't get me wrong, I adore her music and just want to give her a hug, whether a retrospective one or not (she seems pretty happy these days :p)

    She seemed really happy when we saw her and she even gave flowers out at the end of the show... ah good times :)

    I'd like to see her again now please :D

    Hey, you're not allowed to see her twice before I see her once! That's not fair! :D

    There really isn't anyone I'm holding out hope to see before I die. I've seen just about everyone I've wanted to see - R.E.M., U2, Bruce, David Bowie, Beck, Prince, and lots of others. Mostly I just regret who I could've seen had I been more aware of them but I missed the chance - Johnny Cash, The Ramones, James Brown, etc.

    I'd still kinda like to see Oasis, but my desire to see them isn't as bad as it once was.

    Paul McCartney and Madonna I guess are on my 'would like to see live' list as well.

    Springsteen and Tool are the only ones I can think of.

    I have to agree with others, Dylan didn't impress me live.


    I'm sure I'm gonna get reemed for this but I feel TOOL is way overhyped live. Don't get me wrong, the MUSIC is top notch, but OVERALL I was so bored. I already knoew Maynard stands behind the stage. I understand the focus of the band is the music, but the setlist is like 8- 10 songs drawn out over 90 minutes. I just got extremely bored with the 20 minute versions of a 5 minute song on the album. Also they quit playing Aenema which is my favorite Tool song. I would have loved to have seen Danny Carey just tear it up on drums on that live. Danny was the only band member I had a clear view of. Everyone else was in total darkness. If you are a big Tool fan, you will probably have a better time, but I was just so bored.

    Springsteen is amazing live! worth every penny.

    I agree Dylan is mediocre at best, though I want to see him do a full show on his own. I saw him play the Houston Rodeo, and those sets are always shorter. Dylan didn't really get into the performance till the 9th song.

    Hey, whatever...there's a chance...she still likes to put back fifths of JD and a half case of beer correct? I'll look just as hot as any dude with that much booze pumped into her amazing body.
