I Love Music - Forum & Chat Board | Who are some artists you wish you have seen live?

It's impossible but seeing Ella Fitzgerald would have been amazing. I love live shows and I thoroughly enjoy concerts. Jazz music is also something I have been warming up to. This fellow intern at umg actually said she would take me to some jazz lounges so i am excited about that. I guess I will have to settle listening to her tribute album.LOL. Ella is amazing and she even has a myspace. It is awesome to see all the love she still receives.

Roxette - first of all. I think that I was so stupid that I didn't go to their concert in Vienna. And Sasha would be great as well. This German guy is very talented and has got a very good voice.

It would be great when Dusty Springfield still would be alive. I love her songs and would see her alive.

I would see U2 as well. And there are still many bands and singers...

 

I got to see Ella live - I'll treasure that always. 

 

for me it would have to have been the carpenters and queen i know talk about ends of the scale but they are both the best at what they did and thats why.

oh and mettalica in the 80s when they totally rocked lol

xxxx

 

I'd love to see the Mountain Goats live.  I'd have loved to see Zeppelin live, that would have ruled!

 

It would rock to see the Eagles, Dire Straits, Greenday. Woot Woot I'm going to see The Police live in Jan 08

 

My list is long because I don't get many chances to see many of my favourite bands live.  They hardly ever play in the states and when/if they do, it's far away from where I live.  :(

But two bands I really wish I saw (with their old singers) are Tristania and Nightwish. 

 

 I would have liked to have seen Motorhead here. My town considers itself a music center, but if you're not into folk, the regional blues variant, or retreaded punk, you're out in the cold.

 The venue was the last real hard rock/metal venue, and they closed last year. Motorhead played there in 2005, but I missed it.

 Faith No More would have also been fun especially for the zaniness.

 

I would have loved to have seen the Stone Roses at their peak,Iwas a bit too young at the time though. Also U2s Rattle and Hum tour, been listening to their greatest hits today. brilliant band.

 

I really wish I'd seen Janis Joplin, and Billie Holiday. I was hoping to see Nina Simone a few years ago, I was on a mailing list but lived in Canada, and she mostly played in France. A few months after I came home to Europe she died. I cried for days.

 

If I could pick anyone I think it would have to be Jim Morrison

 

Eric Clapton and Jackson Browne.  Wish I could see themm live. Just read Claptons autobiography and feel love for the guy. He is such a musical genius and I love his simple but effective songwriting style. I prefer the unplugged version. Here's some of my all time favs....Bob Dylan, Carly Simon, Carole King, Joni Mitchell.

 

Queen-Freddy is AMAZING!!
David Lee Roth-The only man actually capable of pulling off ***less chaps and spandex leotards.
Marianas Trench
and FOB when they WEREN'T famous.
There are so many older artists as well
(Frank Sinatra, Ella, Peggy Lee, n' more.)

 

I'd have to with Eric Clapton, BB King, Marvin Gaye, Janis Joplin and Queen.  Love the blues, soul, rock and actually a bit of everything.

 

I think if I could've seen The Doors, I would know what true magic is...

 

I know I'm a little young to say this, but I wish I would've gotten to see a lot of my favorite artists live "back in the day," such as Hendrix, the Beatles, the Doors, and a lot of classic rock artists and groups forn the 60s to early 70s.  Of course, my list's pretty long for modern artists too because I don't get the chance to go to very many concerts.   

 

i would definetely want to see metallica before cliff burton died. and same goes for ozzy and randy rhodes. but i would love to have seen the acts in the sixties like the doors and hendrix live. live music has such an impact that seeing the real people is always better.

 

I kind of regret not seeing MCR live here in Manila last jan 25...and I would also want to see Maroon 5 on March 5...hmmm...other than that, local bands such as Mojofly, spongecola, and then international bands like black eyed peas, daughtry(I looove Daughtry!), good charlotte...Also Dixie Chicks, carrie Underwood, dashboard Confessional, and taylor swift...

 

ELVIS

 

i always wanted to see the BEE GEE"S in concert... their songs are so deep and i love their vioces.
