[b]Jackie wilson Old story but.... My mom took me to with her to a Jackie Wilson show. I sat on his lap, but I don't remember. However, I DO remember seeing the O'Jays. They had processes, and William Powell was still in the group! Wish I could've seen LaBelle!  | |

You can still see Cream if you're willing to pay $1,500. 
Sorry, I still can't get over it. 
edit to say that's it's gone up to $2,600 a ticket now in some instances.  [Edited 2/1/05 11:27am] "I saw a woman with major Hammer pants on the subway a few weeks ago and totally thought of you." - sextonseven | |

Don't know if it counts, but I wish that I could've seen The Police in their prime. Even if they got back together now, the dynamic that was there back in the early 80's wouldn't be there. Sting's head is so far up his ass now that they could never be a "true" band again; they'd be "Sting and the Police". I'm the first mammal to wear pants. | |

Good ones. . .although I did get to see EWF circa 1978, Unbelievable show. | |

Two come to my mind:
Joy Division I have seen New Order on their last Tour but I guess that is no substitute. and Joni Mitchell Its a shame that she didn´t do any shows in Europe during the 90s. | |

 actually, that's one of the great ones I was able to catch, at least the Synchronicity Tour, in '83.....funny thing is, R.E.M. was the opening act, and at the time, nobody knew who they where---they were playing their asses off, and everybody was just milling around ,either going to the bathroom or going out to the snack bar...."

Early Funkadelic...when they were raw!!!
The Soul Stirrers (w/ Sam Cooke & Paul Foster) Of course, James Brown..... I saw him in the late 80's, but it would've been cool to see him in the early 70's w/ the original J.B.'s Early Earth, Wind, & Fire..... Sly..... The original Tempts..... | |

One of the biggest regrets of my adolescence is not getting up the nerve to ask my parents to check out The Police. Good night, sweet Prince | 7 June 1958 - 21 April 2016

I got to se Jeff Buckley twice on the Mystery White Boy Tour. He was mindblowing. I'll never forget the sound of his voice, how it filled a room.
