Michael Jackson
Prince
Stevie Wonder

Lady Gaga
Christina Aguilera
Mariah Carey
Dixie Chicks

MJ!!! I have always wanted to see him badly and it's finally happening! I'm so bloody excited!

But I also think that once I see him, I'm really going to calm down.

some nice choices there (I'm not into Steely Dan though,but,as usual,that's just a matter of taste.)
Gov't Mule though...you just have to see 'em,is all I can say..Three hour gigs,usually,and they sound better live than they do on cd.

shit i've seen most of the artists i wanna see

so that leaves:

David Bowie
Led Zeppelin
The Who
Amy Winehouse

Thibaut said:

ditto, plus Michael Jackson, Rakim, Nas, Jay-Z, Lionel Richie, off the top of my head.

people really wanna see MJ? why? he can't sing or dance anymore so what is the point?

The Mars Volta and Tv on the Radio

Here's the point coming from someone who has seen the man live. First, the man is 50 years old. Are you able to do the same things that you did when you were younger? Secondly, Whether or not we want to admit it, the man is a legend and one of the greatest performers that ever walked this earth. I am not as big a fan of his like I once were, but I would see definitely go see him again, if given the chance. When I attended his 30th anniversary celebration in 2001 at Madison Square Garden, here in NY; I had seats that were high up. I did not give a rats ass. I enjoyed myself and he put on an amazing show. Lastly, I would not believe anything you hear about him, that come from "so-called" sources. Unless you have seen him first hand, one should not believe these "sources".

I need to see some of the old skool stadium icons of pop and rock before they're in walkers and whelchairs:


Tina
Madonna
Rolling Stones

...just so I can get it out of the way and say one day" You know I saw them back when...."

Tina Turner
Cher
Aerosmith

I'll be scratching Aerosmith off that list later this summer!

this thread is more like "live acts you need to see before THEY die".
